Spiritual Warfare (The Book of Signs, Ch. 10)

by Dr. David Jeremiah

Know your enemy and know yourself.

If you are a disciple of Jesus, then you are in a spiritual war. And if the idea of knowing one’s enemy makes sense in a conventional battle, it makes even more sense in our spiritual battle because our enemy is stronger and the stakes are higher.

In order to win this battle, we need to acknowledge the reality and the nature of our enemy.

Spiritual Warfare Is Real

We do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Ephesians 6:12

Satan uses people to do his dirty work, yet the tragedy is we fight against those people instead of fighting against him. We must concentrate our efforts against the being who disguises himself as an angel of light instead of the destroyer he is.

• Satan Deceives
• Satan Divides
• Satan Destroys

Spiritual Weapons Are Required

In Ephesians 6, we are told that our armor consists of six pieces:

• The Belt of Truth
• The Breastplate of Righteousness
• The Shoes of the Gospel of Peace
• The Shield of Faith
• The Sword of the Spirit
• PRAYER

More Than Conquerors

We don’t have to live in fear of Satan, our enemy. Nor do we have to live i n fear of the demons at his command. All we must do as soldiers in God’s army is take our place in the spiritual battle to which we have been called – and stand.

In all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. Romans 8:37
