Spiritual battle


Spiritual armour

Part 1


God gave us the power to triumph over our enemies. Being a Christian is about gaining the upper hand in this war between good and evil; good being us and evil being the devil and his demons. We don't battle against flesh or bones but against spiritual beings which are the demons. The devil has limit power over the world. The devil has weapons that can try to manipulate us. One of those weapons is our thoughts.

As we know, what we think is what we are. Be on guard always and always be aware about your surroundings. The world is the devils playground and his backyard is the church. Satan is always looking for a weak Christian to devour. He is always at church to see who is next in line. The point of the devil being I church is to make someone fall real hard in sin, so hard, that he will never try to get up, his mind would be already made up. We need to put on the mind of Christ so that the devil and his men-eons wont take hold of our life through our thoughts. We need to be very careful of what we are thinking and very cautious so that we wont fall for the traps of Satan. The devil is losing ground and that is how he is in churches, to make Christians fall before his time is up.


Our thinking should conduct our way of living. I think there is way of having our thoughts be replaced by Christ but I don't know, I don't want to commit a heresy. One solution that I do know, is to thinking about spiritual things; like reading our bibles daily, to witness those whom have not hear the gospel of grace, to pray and seek God's approval.

In conclusion of this, as the Bible says, be of good cheer. We need to always on the look out. Be always on guard. Do not give place the devil, because that gives him more opportunities to devour you whole. The armor for this lesson is the sword which is the Bible, God's word. By reading God's word, your thoughts are being renewed and by renewing your mind, probably renews your perspective that you have on life.

About the Blood

About the Blood Rev 1:5   And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood ,             1Pe 1:18   Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; 1Pe 1:19   But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: 1Pe 1:20   Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, Heb 13:12   Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate. Heb 12:24   And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel. Heb 10:19   Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the h

Ecclesiastes 7:14

The world is full of injustice and of sin, they are equal in size and in strength; but that doesn't mean that there is no hope. Life in this world was wonderfully created but Lucifer didn't what it that way, he had to butt in on Adam and Eve, he was jealous of their connection to God; that same connection he had before he decided to sit on God's throne, to be like him.   Just like bacteria exist in our body, sin was always present, it means missing the mark and Lucifer purposely missed it by trying to be just like God. So , when trouble comes your way, don't ask why; ask what can I learn? We all are sinners because of Adam did on that not so joyful day, when he decided to  be persuaded by Eve in taking a bite out of that forbidden fruit.  The injustice will always happen, it means  to doubt God's grace and mercy, it means to take God out of our daily life, it means for us to be indifferent towards God's goal, which is to share the Gospel of Christ.

Empowered by God (Eph. 6:10)

    Empowered by Him, the second  in this 13 part series of my R.E.S.P.O.N.S.I.B.I.L.I.T.Y  as a Christian.     My responsibility  as a Christian is that I need to be empowered by the Holy Spirit,  I need ask to for it. How else will I succeed? How else will I be able to climb obstacles that are in my way? I need to be strong in the Lord and not faint by every little thing; everything is little when you have a God that is larger than life, when you have a God that time and space cannot contain Him, it is He who contains them.    God did not call me to be weak, He did not call me to be sorry for myself or being sorry for someone else; each of one us has potentials to do great things in life, we just need to be mindful of our positions as Christians.   Ask God to empower you so that you can do great things for him, we were bought with a great price; let the blood that was shed on Calvary mean something, because it does.
