THE SPIRITUAL BATTLE
2 Corinthians 10:3-4 (NASB)
“For though we walk in the flesh, we do not wage battle according to the flesh, for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses.”
All we can physically see is the world we live in. Because of this, it has become common belief among the world that the spiritual realm does not even exist. I personally believe that one of the biggest accomplishments of the Devil is that America does not believe in any sort of spiritual realm as a whole. Rather, things are explained away by science and magic. There are even TV shows re-creating what appears to be the supernatural just to prove that it does not exist.
Let us not forget who the real enemy is. God desires that no one should perish. Our great commission is to spread the knowledge of Jesus’ love for people around the world. We need to keep our eyes on the spiritual battle that we are constantly fighting as we love people through the power of the Holy Spirit working in us, and as we allow the Holy Spirit to guide move in and through us.
