As a Christian, do you know who your enemy is?
The answer is anyone around you that resists Christ as Lord!
They are our co workers, neighbors, children and even our spouses whom persecute us for the Word’s sake, for the Word of God(His Voice) is to hard for them to hear because it causes them torment, hence they are not able to obey due to the spirit that they are of. They are of an anti-Christ(Word) spirit.
It is only by the Spirit of God that one can say Jesus is Lord, because God'sSpirit guides us into all truth and when we love The Word, then we can say we love God.
For God is exactly as His Word. Every man is revealed by his word rather he is faithful to his word, or a liar. And we know the Bible says that God is not a man that He should lie. That is why Jesus can claim he is equal to God for they are one in the same. You can not separate the man from his word for his word is his name... such as one who lies is named a liar, one who steals is named a thief and so on.
They in themselves are not the problem for they WERE made in God‘s image before eating of the wrong tree that taught them to walk contrary to the LORD, learning how to be good and evil.
It is the unclean spirit that resides in them that hates The Word(Christ of God) and can not submit to him. They are led of the devil, doing his bidding, they just don’t know it or at least most of them do not! In fact most of them believe their self to be good people, I know, I was one of those till my spiritual eyes were opened and I could see truth.
They walk in a lower life of darkness, restless, poverty stricken, or can be wealthy with ill gotten gains but poor inwardly due to their disconnection with God by His Spirit whom exalts His Word of Wisdom in God’s man. Wealth can not save us, it is just a tool to live a good prosperous life when obtained through seeking God's wisdom, but in it's self is useless to save or heal us. Only God is able to bring true wealth and healing by obedience to Christ.
No, our enemy’s are not other nations, but our own unbelieving family and our weapon of warfare is not of the carnal nature, but of the Spirit
Here is the soldier suit that we are to put on as a soldier for Christ:
Eph 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,
KJV
When we step out in faith, proclaiming God’s Word( Our covenant promises) for our protection or provision, all we need do is REST (inwarding) in Christ, knowing that God is the one who is going to fight for us and that the labor to handle it is not ours, but our God's for our victory when we abide in Christ.. Abide in The Word. Does not mean that we don't do the natural such as fill out the papers, go to the place etc... just means that those are not where our victory comes from, and our trust should not be in our own works or the hand of any man.
Our faith for God to be willing and able to do it is all that is required for without faith it is impossible to please God. Prayer for God's help in all situations that come up against us, is the first thing we must do, not the last attempt! He must be first!
