Are you at war?

2.5

Are you at war?

3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:

2 Cor 10:3 (KJV)

Have you ever wondered what was meant by spiritual warfare?  I have.  In a battle we are supposed to know our enemy.  Have you ever heard of going to war but not knowing who you are fighting?  Part of our lives as Christians is knowing how satan can and will attack our lives.

I have noticed that the closer I get to releasing my book, satan is coming at me from all sides.  Too many times I think we think it is too far fetched to believe that there is a battle going on all around us and at stake are people’s souls.  I can tell you 100%, that since God called me to write down my thoughts in blog and book form, I have been attacked in every imaginable way.  As most of you know, I almost got divorced, and now I find myself in a terrible financial bind.  This bind is completely of my making, but satan is definitely using it to slow down the process of releasing my book.

Now today’s verse assures us that as Christians we will be walking in the flesh, but our war will be with satan and his demons.  I have realized that I am blessed to be in this war.  Why?  Because if I wasn’t being attacked by satan it would mean that I was  not a valid threat to his ongoing battle to win souls.  I have recently realized that I should consider it a blessing that he has taken the time to harass me because that must mean he has something to lose by me writing blogs and books.  Praise God!

People, be real today.  If you are really doing what God wants you to do then satan will have to be attacking you anyway he can.  So my simple question to you is”  Are you at war?”  If you are not then please look at your life and try to see why the devil is leaving you alone.  Is it because of your lifestyle?  Just remember, if you are not a threat to satan, then he has no need to bother you!

If you feel like you aren’t where God needs you to be, then is it a possibility that you are not saved?  Please dont let the sun go down with you not knowing for sure if you are saved.  Just ask God to forgive you for your sins.  Tell Him you are sorry and know that His Son Jesus had to die and be tortured for YOU.  Turn your life from your own desires to what God wants you to do.  Read your bible and pray, because that’s the only way you can communicate with Him.

God Bless!
