“For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds.” 2 Corinthians 10:4.

Some people will say, “I don’t worry about what the devil is doing!” or, “I don’t pay him any attention”……

Well, I don’t know of any soldier who is not alert or will go into a war without any strategies, plans, or is not prepared to fight back against their enemy.

This is exactly what the devil wants you to do. Then when this happens, you are discouraged, depressed, crying, and telling everybody who can get a prayer through to pray for you because you ignored the enemy.

If you are a good soldier, then you know that you will need to have armor and weapons. And too, why would god give you armor and weapons if you are not ever going to need them?

Now I see why there are so many of us who are beat-up, knocked out, and blind-sided by this fool. Because only another fool will go to war against him in a blind-fold and with empty hands!

“Put on the full armor of God, so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes. For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places,” Ephesians 6:11-12.

“Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour,” 1 Peter 5:8.

“Join me in suffering, like a good soldier of Christ Jesus. Soldier refrains from entangling himself in civilian affairs, in order to please the one who enlisted him,” 2 Timothy 2:3.
