We are constantly in a war field.



As Christians we shouldn’t fall asleep (1 Thess. 5:5-6) however we should always be geared up with the whole armour of God (Ephis.6:11) because we are constantly in a war field. Listen if you don’t think so just ask yourself why we are facing physical diseases, mental diseases, moral impurity, false doctrines etc on a daily basis?

 

Physical Diseases

Jesus cast a demon out of a dumb man who immediately began to speak (Matt. 9:32, 33). On another occasion, a blind man began to see when the demon went out of him (Matt. 12:22). Job was afflicted physically with boils covering his body, the result of satanic activity (Job 2:1-10).

 

Mental Disease

One man lived among tombs, a practice considered unclean during this time, and created a disturbance day and night (Mark 5:4, 5). A young boy possessed with a demon involuntarily went into an apparent convulsion when he encountered the presence of Jesus (Luke 9:37-42).

 

Moral Impurity

One of the reasons God wanted the Israelites in a separate land was that the heathen nations had given themselves over to unclean spirits and had become: corrupted (Lev. 18; Deut. 18).

 

False Doctrine

Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons. (1 Timothy 4:1)

 

Eph. 6:12.

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

 

Let us put on the whole armour of God.
