When We God to War
When We God to War
“When you go out to war against your enemies, and see horses and chariots and an army larger than your own, you shall not be afraid of them, for the Lord your God is with you, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.
God did not say if we will go to war. God said when we will go to war.
You must go out. Locking yourself in the house is not going to help you avoid this war. Many of us do not like conflict. Some of us avoid conflict. The fact is that we are all participants in the war whether we want to be or not. You must go out!
We Must Identify the Enemy. Who or what are we fighting?
(ESV)
12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.
Who is our enemy?
We are fighting a spiritual war.
Enemy 1: We are fighting evil spirits. (Satan and demonic spirits)
We are fighting a spiritual war.
Enemy 2: We are fighting people that are demonically influenced.
Enemy 3: We are fighting the entropy. The Oxford Dictionary defines Entropy as “lack of order or predictability; gradual decline into disorder.”
Enemy 4: We are fighting self and sin. Sin is a disease that make us sick.
