The Reality

  1. Satan is the prince of the power of the air and has dominion over the earth.

  2. We are alive on the same earth and commissioned to represent Christ and share him with others.

  3. We have put our faith in Jesus and therefore have entered the battlefield.

  4. Christ has already won the war, but we are still commanded to fight.

  5. As soldiers for Christ, we have been provided with all we need to stand strong:

  • The Holy Spirit, Who trains us and leads us into battle

  • The Word of God, which is our sword and is meant to be used, not just read

  • Worship, which confounds the enemy, strengthens our spirit, and fixes our eyes on Christ

  • Prayer, which is our communication with God, sending forth his power and defeating the enemy

  • Fasting which gives us singlemindedness toward God, moves our flesh out of the way, emboldens our prayers, and eliminates distractions

  • Fellowship of the saints, which sharpens, inspires, and emboldens us and others
    ​

WE ARE chosen and EQUIPPED.
