Warfare

3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. 4 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, 5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ       II Corinthians 10:3-5

Recently, I had a conversation with someone who said that I pray “differently” than other people….he described my prayers as powerful.  My husband says that I “call the fire down”.  That doesn’t sound all that positive to me…the fire of God?  I’m not sure but I will say this…I believe that each one of us should be praying in a bold manner.  Because we are at war.  Warriors must boldly approach the throne of grace that we might obtain mercy and visit destruction up the enemy of our soul; the enemy of our person, our family, our church, our community, our nation….we must fight boldly KNOWING and BELIEVING (in other words, this cannot be something we merely say but something we BELIEVE in our hearts) that “GREATER IS HE WHO IS IN US THAN he who is in the world.”  Jesus already overcame the enemy.  What Jesus did at Calvary is a completed work…He died for us and rose again.  His work is done….it’s up to us.

We must begin to engage in a warfare that is mighty to the pulling down of strongholds.  ENGAGE people.

I added this new category because we have been engaging some things, some demonic spirits and I want to share what we have learned so you can also engage, overcome, be healed, be free, grow and help someone else.

Graham Cooke (www.grahamcooke.com) says that revenge on the enemy is when you get free from something, you help someone else get free.
