“And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, awhich deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”
– Rev 12:7-9
Some verses about our spiritual struggle.
Eph 6:12, 2 Cor 10:3-5, Eph 4:27, 1 Tim 3:7, 2 Tim 2:26, John 10:10, James 4:7-8, 1 Pet 5:8, 1 Tim 6:12. We’re fighting to hold onto our faith in life, to pray on behalf of others, etc. Notes from a presentation that piqued my interest for a while.
If we’re being attacked, here’s how to detect possible indicators. Not always, but suspicious.
1.) You just feel like quitting.
2.) You’re exhausted all the time.
3.) You feel like you’re losing your mind. –vain imaginations
4.) If you’re sick in your body.
5.) When you feel like isolating yourself –away from fellowship
6.) People are attacking you to your face or behind your back.
7.) Things are breaking.
8.) Finances are being drained.
9.) Family or relationships turned against you.
10.) Feeling condemned.
While you win the war, here’s why you might be losing a conflict:
1.) You’re not fighting back.
2.) You aren’t using the right weapon.
3.) You aren’t discerning the root of the enemy’s attack.
4.) Unrepentant sin in your life.
5.) You’re fighting a conflict that you shouldn’t be in.
6.) You’re not following the Holy Spirit’s plan of resolution.
“And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”
