Manage episode 406703195 series 3557385
Discover your spiritual battle strategy in this enlightening episode. We are all part of an unseen war, a war that ranges from distracting our focus to contending for our souls. The critical first step is to be alert and to embrace the new reality of spirituality. Dive in as we unpack Ephesians 6, 10-18, which provides an incredible blueprint of how to arm ourselves with the armor of God. Remember, it's not the offense, but the defense that wins the championship, and the same applies to our spiritual warfare.
The real sources of our offensive weapons are non-carnal, and they possess the power to pull down the strongholds. Learn more from 2 Corinthians 10.3.5 about how God equips us for this relentless war, with the sword of the Spirit, the Spirit of God, and prayer forming our triple threat. This episode also underlines the power of love, the core command that triumphs over fear. As we delve into the teachings of Matthew 22, 37-40 and 1 Corinthians 13.8, we discover that Love, truly, never fails.
Next, the episode explores equipping ourselves with the gifts and talents, as per James 1.17, to fulfill any mission and conquer our spiritual battles. Matthew 28, 18-20 enlightens us about the authority derived from Jesus Himself, not by our own power. When we face trials in this war, resilience enables us to endure the difficult times as we hold on to the hope of Galatians 6, 9 and stand firm in the Lord's power from 1 Corinthians 15, 58.
Finally, we end with the power of truth. The truth given to us by Jesus sets us free. Attribution to John 1, 17 guides us to understand that truth is potent and resides within us. Living in truth, worshiping in the Spirit, and holding fast to the truth brings rejoicing. Come on this journey to fully understand the spiritual warfare we are engaged in constantly, and take the strategic steps to win it.
