Spiritual Warfare
1.
First Recorded Battle: Gen 14:1-20.
2. Spiritual Warfare = asymmetric warfare
a conflict in which the combatants are not equal in number or strength.
The conflict is all around us.
3. Satan rarely attacks us directly.
a. work through individuals
to keep you from becoming a christian
use others to weaken your faith
use others to decrease your effectiveness for God.
4. Satan’s purpose:
1. Desires to lead us into the domain of darkness: Col 1:13 “He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son,”
2. Motivation; Satan is full of hate. 1 Pet 5:8-9 “Be sober-minded; be watchful.
Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world.”
3. Methods used by Satan.
Jn 8:44 “You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires.
He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him.
When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.”
The results of following satan is death.
Rom 8:2 “For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death.”
There are instances, in the scriptures where satan will attack directly.
Job 1:6-12.
Lk 4:38-41.
Matt 4:24.
Matt 8.
Lk 22:31.
5. Satan can not possess us against our will (James 4:7
but he can apply considerable pressure indirectly.

What are some specific ways Satan indirectly attacks us through the attractiveness of the world and how can we overcome them?
How can Satan’s multi-level attack plan be affected by his indirect attacks?
Have you ever felt at some time in your life that you might have been under the influence of Satan?
How did you lessen or removed his influence?
Read Romans7:15-24.
How does this describe the spiritual warfare in which Paul was engaged?
