Jesus encountered spiritual warfare at an extreme level when He was full of The Holy Spirit (join the dots on that point ) as seen in Luke 4 : 1-13 ( by the way ,note verse 13 , 'satan left Jesus until ANOTHER opportune time'). If Jesus , King of Kings & Lord of Lords had to endure spiritual attacks , what makes any of us think we will avoid such attempts on our own spiritual lives .Be assured satan & his demons will attempt to bring you & I down in whatever way possible , here are a few more areas that you need to know about their strategic , sinful , set ups !
Demonic spirits mimic their master and hence will attempt to :
a)Accuse & deceive you;Revelation 12 :9-10
b)Enslave & destroy you;1Peter 5 :8, Hebrews 2 : 14-15
c)Tempt & seduce you; 1Timothy 4 :1-2, Matthew 4 :1-3
d) Inflame the tongue to speak unholy words ;James 3 :1-12
e)Exalt you as the most important person in the world , more important than God ! 2Corinthians 10:5
f)Hinder belief in Jesus; 2 Corinthians 4:3-4
g)Torment & harrass you ; Acts 16 : 16-18, Mark 5 : 2-6
h) Cause afflictions within & without ; Luke 13 : 11 , Matthew 17 :14-21
i) Attempt to bring generational curses down upon you ;Exodus 20 :5, 1 Peter 2:1
j) Render you unfit for God's service by unconfessed and habitual sins ; Genesis 4 : 7
I really could continue to list so many & there will be more teaching on this in subsequent blog sites, however , remember today you do have the victory through Jesus if you authentically want to claim it .
Here are some basics to keep you walking in VICTORY:
a) The name of JESUS ; Acts 16:18, Philippians 2 : 9-11
b) The blood of JESUS ;Revelation 12 :10-11
c)The whole armour of God ; Ephesians 6:10-18 , 2 Corinthians 10:3-5
d)The authority of the Word of God ; Matthew 4:4 , 2 Timothy 3:16
More will be spoken about in future blog sites....... Please be renewed in your mind about the fact that you are in a spiritual battle , people who are in God's Army ( above all ) should be aware of this spiritual truth , ( not controlled by it) merely informed , watchful and most certainly on our knees .
Praying for you today .... Marney
