Battefield Faith

Although we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. 2 Corinthians 10:3-4

Do you realize you are  living on an active battlefield? Not one with tanks, airplanes, grenades,  IED’s, and land mines but one where Satan is roaming around getting many deceived and thrown off course. Even people who love the Lord are often times infected by this distortion of the truth and start to believe lies. Satan uses many things to help him do his job.

If you are a Christ follower you should be discerning in what you choose to allow into your mind and what and who you allow to influence you. This world is under tremendous spiritual warfare by our enemy Satan who lies so much even believers start to trust his puny fabricated lies and start living in the dump. This is why it is so critical to not wake up daily and feed your mind on worldly garbage coming from the news on TV or the morning newspaper. Often times you can be deceived into believing so many things that are not real.

2019 is a clean slate and a new opportunity to get serious about your walk with God and your quiet time. It is also a time to really set boundaries on feeling you have to listen to news more than you even want to read God’s word. Christians will be persecuted as we stand up to the lies and the moral free fall going on around us. Right is being called wrong. God help us. The culture is not our friend. We are to be spiritually minded but too many people are worldly minded. Brother and sister I urge you please to not trust a political party, a news network, a newspaper, an education system but to trust in the living God. The only way you will be able to combat the enemy and know the truth is to GET INTO THE WORD OF GOD. Are you ready?

PRAYER: God and the devil, two choices that are pretty clear modern culture being run by minions of the enemies court are tricking many. I pray for those I am close to to have their minds opened to the truth and to run with God not the enemy and stay way far away from his camps which are all around. Help me recognize evil. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
