Fight Back!

2 Corinthians 10:3-6 “For though we walk in the flesh, we do not wage war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds. Casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. And we will be ready to punish every act of disobedience, once your obedience is complete.”

The battle that we all fight today is in the mind. Although we live on this world, our war is not on this world. If we read the scripture today it says that our weapons are mighty in God. You see the moment we start fighting back, we must realize that our power or our weapons are in God. We shouldn’t fight this battle, because it’s not ours. The Battle belongs to the Lord, VICTORY is ours.
For how long are we still going to allow the enemy to stand in our way of achieving things in life? For how long are we going to allow him to steal our joy? The bible says that we should pull down strongholds. Spiritual seeking, Paul defines strongholds as an “arguments or high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God”. The stronghold is a point of operation from where Satan can keep the unbeliever captive or the believer incapacitated. He will build his strongholds so high so that you should believe that there are no more hope, your dreams are dying, feel that you are breaking down, become impatient, weak, disobedient and feel like you are loosing in the process. But…
Today I want you to stand up and fight back. Fight back the devils plan in destroying you. Like conquerors, we need to target that spiritual strongholds of our enemy. Start speaking life unto yourself. Tell the devil that you are rich, you’re strong, you’re an over comer. You are the head and not the tail, You are above and not beneath, You are somebody, You’re a child of a King, You are washed by the blood of the lamb. Stay positive in your life.
Ephesians 6:12 “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the power of the dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms”.
This is a spiritual battle! Many times we want to fight one another, but we should actually battle against the evil spirits that attack our mindsets. Things that make us angry and make us feel like giving up. Fight against the spirit that tell you that you can’t reach your goals. Remember God made you to win!
But always be sure that you are covered with the full amour of God so that you can stand in the day of attack. So that you can defeat the enemies schemes and what he tries to do.
Remember today that if you are disobedient you will not win this battle. We should become complete in obedience in God in order to fight back. Our minds and thoughts must come to obedience to listen to Christ, because He will direct you and show you how to fight back!
In 2 Samuel 22:29-30 David says that “the Lord is his lamp and He turns his darkness to light. With the Lord he can advance against a troop, with the Lord he can scale a wall”. It doesn’t matter how much things  are against you, it doesn’t matter how large the stronghold (wall) are, YOU CAN OVERCOME.
Today I want you to remember that God is always with you. In every single situation or whatever problem you are facing, He is there. He just want you to allow Him into your life and to let Him face anything with you.
Trust the Lord to fight the battle for you. Fight BACK! And if you have the victory, never forget to praise and worship God in everything!
Amen! So it is and so it shall be!
