Warfare Part 2
1. Your mind is the Battlefield
The fight starts before your hands move. If the enemy wins your thoughts, he wins your actions.
When David was hunted by Saul, he ran to the wilderness.
1 Sam 23:14. He kept God’s promise of kingship hidden. no premature announcements.
On the other hand Samson's strength was covenant, hidden in his vow. He told Delilah Judges 16:17 and took it out of the “mind-wilderness”.
He didn’t guard his thoughts. He explained his anointing to someone who didn’t honor it.
Sometimes failure comes from sharing a lot..Guard your heart with diligence from it follows issues of life.Not everyone will be happy for your success.
2 Cor 10:5
Fight every negative thought that rises itself above the word of God.
“We take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.” David arrested fear, revenge, and impatience. He waited in silence till God’s timing.
Ephesians 6:12 “Our struggle is not against flesh and blood…” The battlefield is internal. Loose thoughts equals open gates. Hidden moves equals hidden protection.
2. Put on the Full Armor of God
If the mind is battlefield, then truth is your first defense Ephesians 6:14.
When Satan tempted Jesus in the wilderness, every attack got the same response: Matthew 4:4 “It is written…”
Jesus didn’t debate. He substituted. Negative thought with Scriptures.
That is why it so important as child of God,to equip yourself with his word .His word becomes your weapon in times of Trials.
That’s 2 Cor 10:5 in action: “demolish arguments… and take captive every thought”.
So when “you’ll fail” hits your mind, substitute with the truth.What is the truth?Philippians 1:6“He who began a good work will complete it.”
When “you’re alone” hits, substitute with the truth. What is the truth?Deut 31:6 “He will never leave you.”
That is why it is important to meditate on the word of God.When temptations arise,faith can be shaken and where your faith fails ,knowledge takes over.
3. Pray in the Holy Spirit
Jude 20
“But you, dear friends, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit…”
Prayer is reinforcement. The armor defends, prayer builds you up from inside. When you can’t find words, the Spirit prays the strategy you can’t see yet.
Arise Warrior..Keep connected Soldier..
