Title: With the Power of That Power
Contents
The Christian life is a spiritual battle. Although it seems that we are pursuing the life of faith as we see it, in reality, the fundamental and center of all our religious life is to carry out spiritual battles. So, in the life of a believer, there is nothing more important than to properly recognize the reality of spiritual warfare. Like the words of the angel Gabriel who brought the answer to Daniel, it showed that this fierce spiritual confrontation and battle is actually unfolding behind every visible event we see (Daniel 10:13). If a Christian restricts himself to what he sees, he cannot win in the spiritual life. to fight the spiritual warfare,
First, as a Christian, we must understand the reality of spiritual warfare.
To lead a life of faith means to pursue the unseen. Eternal life and heaven, God does not see. But this is the most important part of the life of faith. We need to understand the spiritual reality and its importance as human life is not only the physical part, but also the spiritual part is at the center. The more we understand the reality and nature of the daily spiritual battles in the Christian life, the more clearly we will see what we are fighting against. If you do not understand this spiritual battle, you will always turn it into a problem of the situation and understand it only as a problem of people. So, what we really need in every relationship we have is the power of the Holy Spirit to win the battle against the devil that prevents us from being perfect. I pray that this year will be a year of spiritual victory and a year of spiritual arming.
Second, the Christian's spiritual battle can never be won without spiritual recharging.
Third, the greatest spiritual battle is the field of the Gospel.
What the devil hates the most is worship. The devil interferes with worship and prevents us from going to worship. However, worship is an absolute privilege to come before God. Many souls in bondage to sin and lust are unaware of this privilege of Christians. The devil makes all sorts of schemes and methods to prevent people from having this privilege. There is no greater battle than the spiritual battle that takes place where the gospel is preached. This is because the devil is desperately trying to prevent us from going to the place of worship, the place of the gospel. If you want to experience spiritual battle, preach the gospel. Although the gospel will bring people down, you will experience rejection because of it. This year, we must stand in the place of the gospel and win. I pray that you will become the people of Christ who accomplish the precious works of God with the blood of Christ and the vitality of worship at the forefront of the spiritual battle.
