The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.This same verse in the Message Bible reminds us that "this is no afternoon athletic contest that we'll walk away from and forget about in a couple of hours. This is for keeps, a life-or-death fight to the finish against the devil and all his angels."
(2 Cor. 10:3-5)
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.
(Eph. 6:12 KJV)
In the latest email I received from Chuck Pierce he wrote,
"War is not pretty. It brings sorrow in the earth. I think all of us wish we didn't have to go to war. However, once again, war is inevitable and our call is now to enter in a spiritual realm as God's people and stand firm that the enemy's plan in the midst of this conflict will be overthrown. We need to lay aside all of our opinions and enter in and pray victoriously. Opinions will neutralize the unity necessary to release an anointing to overthrow the enemy's plan in the earth."Remember, united in prayer we stand!
When Israel was on the brink of war in 2 Chronicles 20, God instructed the praisers to go out before the army; the battle was the Lord's - the enemy was defeated!
This strategy worked and it will work for us. Here on earth we are the Company of Praisers! God is at work in the heavens - may His will be done on earth as it is in heaven! United in prayer we stand!
I encourage you to read Psalm 27, 31, 103 and 118. Read these Scriptures aloud and pray without ceasing. The Holy Spirit will help us to pray at those times we don't know how or what to pray.
