2 Corinthians 10:3-6 We are human, but we don’t wage war as humans do. We use God’s mighty weapons, not worldly weapons, to knock down the strongholds of human reasoning and to destroy false arguments. We destroy every proud obstacle that keeps people from knowing God. We capture their rebellious thoughts and teach them to obey Christ. And after you have become fully obedient, we will punish everyone who remains disobedient.
This is how you wage war. This is how you win souls back. My weapons. My armor. My Word. You are to strike down the lies and manipulations and obfuscations of your enemies. They are waging war on my children by molding thoughts and then those thoughts into actions that are contrary to my Word and my commands. They are subtle and relentless in their assault on the hearts, souls and minds of my children. Do not allow them any quarter. Spend time in my Word, in prayer, in communication with me. Just as a soldier in any war needs direct, constant communication with his commanders and his fellow soldiers, you need constant direct communication with me and fellowship with other believers. Talk to me. Pray. Seek my face. Listen to my voice. Pay attention to my Spirit in you. 24/7. For that is when the battle is being waged around you and against you – 24/7. It does not take a break. Your enemies do not rest. They do not give you a breather. They rail against you – at times blatantly but always subtly, in the background of everything, barely audible yet always palpably present. Those who do not know me or who are weak in their faith are the easiest victims, and the hardest to win back. I have put you here at this time for this battle. Fight for them. Fight to restore me to my rightful place in your Nation. Then your world.
