For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Ephesians 6:12As a believer there is your enemy, Satan aka the devil, who is not a comic character but is a real being. Those church goers who don’t hear about this in their denomination would be at a loss to ward him off.When you have strongholds in your life that keep you from victory and freedom it is likely demonic influence trying to get your thoughts off God and onto worry and fear.Likewise in the world there is good and there is evil. Good of course is God and evil is, you guessed it, Satan. To fight the enemy you do it by quoting scripture to him and continually staying in the Word. To learn what is wrong you study the Bible. Keep from saturating your mind with worldly junk found in many tv shows and movies. Stay alert it says in 1 Peter 5:8 “Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” Your arsenal is knowing the word.PRAYER:Thank you Lord for my Bible for in it I have the tools to defeat the enemy.In Jesus’ name. Amen.
