Job 26:2
King James Version
2 How hast thou helped him that is without power?
how savest thou the arm that hath no strength?
Is there really a battle?
A spiritual kind of battle?
The kind the Bible speaks of?
Who's involved?
Are you part of it?
If we are in a battle, what do we do?
How do we prepare for it?
Who must be the victor?
Common sense says --
Know who you serve.
Know the enemy.
Equip yourself properly.
Those three we shall address here, through articles we've already written in the past, merely to put some foundation, and semblance of order.
Consider this spiritual strategy in order to fight victoriously in the battle we're all in.
Know who you serve.
Matthew 6:24
King James Version
24 No man can serve two masters:
for either he will hate the one, and love the other;
or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other.
Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
Joshua 24:15
King James Version
15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord,
choose you this day whom ye will serve;
whether the gods which your fathers served
that were on the other side of the flood,
or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell:
but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.
Know your enemy.
John 8:44
King James Version
44 Ye are of your father the devil,
and the lusts of your father ye will do.
He was a murderer from the beginning,
and abode not in the truth,
because there is no truth in him.
When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own:
for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Galatians 5:17
King James Version
17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit,
and the Spirit against the flesh:
and these are contrary the one to the other:
so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
Ephesians 6:12
King James Version
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood,
but against principalities,
against powers,
against the rulers of the darkness of this world,
against spiritual wickedness in high places.
On Knowing the Enemy of Christ
Equip yourself properly.
John 3:5-8
King James Version
5 Jesus answered,
Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit,
he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh;
and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not that I said unto thee,
Ye must be born again.
8 The wind bloweth where it listeth,
and thou hearest the sound thereof,
but canst not tell whence it cometh,
and whither it goeth:
so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
Galatians 5:16
King James Version
16 This I say then,
Walk in the Spirit,
and ye shall not fulfil
the lust of the flesh.
Ephesians 6:10-11
King James Version
10 Finally, my brethren,
be strong in the Lord,
and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God,
that ye may be able to stand
against the wiles of the devil.
Ephesians 6:13-18
King James Version
13 Wherefore take unto you
the whole armour of God,
that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day,
and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore,
having your loins girt about with truth,
and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod
with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith,
wherewith ye shall be able to quench
all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation,
and the sword of the Spirit,
which is the word of God:
18 Praying always
with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit,
and watching thereunto with all perseverance
and supplication for all saints;
Revelation 12:11
King James Version
11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb,
and by the word of their testimony;
and they loved not their lives unto the death.
In these last days, it's time to make a stand now.
The Rapture hovers every moment.
It's time to GET RIGHT with GOD now.
Through the LORD JESUS CHRIST.
He's the ONLY TRUE POWER anyway.
SPIRIT and Scripture testify of this.
The only difference is that the world presents many gods.
The true born again knows Who the REAL GOD Is.
And adores Him, and serves Him.
In perfect obedience.
For His LAWS are clear.
Psalm 19:7-8
King James Version
7 The law of the Lord is perfect,
converting the soul:
the testimony of the Lord is sure,
making wise the simple.
8 The statutes of the Lord are right,
rejoicing the heart:
the commandment of the Lord is pure,
enlightening the eyes.
