2 Corinthians 10: 3-5 for though we walk in the flesh we do not war according to the flesh for the weapons of our Warfare are not carnal But Mighty in God for pulling down strongholds casting down arguments and every High thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God bringing every thought into captivity to The Obedience of Christ this is one of those passages of scripture that really puts things into perspective the Bible is telling us here that although we live in this world we do not and we should not fight our battles like the
world in fact the weapons that we have available to us aren't physical weapons but note how the Bible says for the weap weapons of our Warfare are not carnal But Mighty in God the weapons we can access as children of God have divine power they are weapons unlike anything in this world because they are Heavenly weapons and At The Mention of the word weapons people usually think of the physical weapons in this world like a bat or a gun however the Bible says in Hebrews 4:2 for the word word of God is living and powerful
and sharper than any two-edged sword piercing even to the division of Soul and Spirit and of joints and Marrow and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart the word of God is one of the weapons that we have as children of God it's a weapon that is powerful and sharper than any two sword the word of God is a weapon that you can use against the devil it's an effective weapon against the devil in fact so what does the bible mean when it says for though we walk in the flesh we
do not war according to the flesh well as a Believer you're not fighting people you're not just fighting circumstances no you're fighting the spirit behind the person the devil be behind the situation for we do not wrestle against flesh and blood but against principalities against Powers against the rulers of the darkness of this age against spiritual hosts of wickedness and the Heavenly places this is what the Bible says in Ephesians 6:2 so here's what we're doing today we're going to pray for victory in all all areas of Our Lives believe that God will break every
plan of the enemy trust that the Lord will have the final say in all matters concerning you the conflicts you face the battles you face the Lord has the final say over all of that so I encourage you people of God to trust God trust in the word of the Lord trust in his promises and you will have the victory you and I are called to trust God now my own perspective on trusting the Lord is that I don't need to have all the answers because I know the one who knows all the answers I
don't need to know what the plan is because I know the planner I don't need to know the why if I know the one I don't need to know the how because I trust him the Bible says in Psalm 37: 3-6 trust in the Lord and do good then you will live safely in the land and prosper take Delight in the Lord and He will give you your heart's desires commit everything you do to the Lord trust him and he will help you he will make your innocence radiate like the Dawn and the justice of
your cause will shine like the no Monday Sun I believe that God is pleased when we trust him to such an extent that we can say whatever awaits me in the future I'm facing it with Jesus whatever comes against me I'll be protected by Jesus and here's the thing about faith and trust in the Lord a lot of times you'll have to walk with god without knowing in fact faith can be summed up in the following way Faith is doing your part which is trusting God to do his part your part is to believe that's
all you need to do and then you leave God to do his part your part is to stand on God's word his word says that nothing is impossible with God let me ask you are you doing your part are you believing and standing on God's word faith is not necessarily something tangible it's not something you can put your hands on and control faith is the substance of Hope and the evidence of the Unseen this means to me that if you can see it it isn't faith if you can explain it or control it it isn't
Faith many of us try to orchestrate and control everything in our lives until one day we're faced with things that are outside of our control and the truth is the most important things in life are out of our control you can exercise and diet all you want but disease can still come knocking on your door we can build magnificent buildings and structures but we must still bow to the power of a tornado a hurricane or an earthquake these things remind us that we are not in control but I want you to understand that it's during
Times Like These when we feel out of control that we are reminded of the purpose of faith faith enables us to be comfortably out of control even though we cannot control things like disease nature or death we have faith that God has a plan and that God will have the last word and so as we approach the throne of grace let us ask God to help us to move into a space where we are comfortable without knowing ask him to move us to a place where we can be comfortable not because we have all the
answers but because we know who our answer is his name is Jesus and with that understanding let us pray Lord Jesus we look to you today concerning all things we honor you and we reverence your holy name only you deserve the glory god only you deserve my honor and my praise my prayer today Lord is that you would fight for me fight my battles Lord I believe that every setback sent from the enemy will be a setup from you Lord you will use that which the enemy plotted to be my downfall and you will turn
it around to be a blessing for me in Jesus name in you father I find strength the strength and protection needed for every battle when I look back over my life Lord you have been faithful you have saved me and kept me from everything that has come to hurt me and to destroy me it's only by your grace and mercy that I'm still here that I'm still able to lift my voice that I'm able to lift my hands and able to thank you for your kindness and your protection it's because of you Lord Jesus that
I have survived every attack from the devil every one of them which was intended to hurt me I rebuke cancel and Destroy every assignment every plot and every attack of the enemy over my life and over the lives of my family members Lord I am placing my faith in your word your word that is powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword I'm holding on to your word that says in 1 John 5:18 we know that whoever is born of God does not sin but he who has been born of God keeps himself and the wicked
one does not touch him you my God are my keeper and according to your word the devil cannot touch me I thank you Lord for such protection father your word says in Psalm 18:2 the Lord is my rock and my Fortress and my deliverer my God my strength in whom I will trust my shield and the Horn of my salvation my stronghold there is no greater safety than in you King Jesus there is no other way for victory than you Lord your name is a strong tower and I Run To You Lord Jesus you alone
can deliver me from all of my struggles you alone can deliver me from every stronghold and everything that seeks to stop my spiritual growth your word says the Lord is faithful and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one I praise you for your word and it promise the promise to protect me from the evil one protect me from all of the traps that he sets protect me from all of the schemes of the devil God I thank you for being faithful you Lord are a faithful God In The Name of Jesus
there is no weapon forged against me that will prevail in the name of Jesus I refute every tongue that speaks evil against me Father everything that seeks to disturb the peace in my mind everything that seeks to destroy the peace in my spirit I ask today Lord that you remove it and let it be placed far away from me protect my peace of mind Lord protect the peace within my soul lord when life presents me with situations and circumstances that are difficult and and that come to test me I pray that you would give me
the grace to overcome God I pray that you would give me the strength to overcome by faith I will turn to you for guidance by faith I will trust in you for the victory even when I don't see how so I pray that in my life Faith Would Rain instead of fear God help me to overcome feelings of confusion and worry and instead give me the Assurance the belief that no weapon formed against me will prosper may you be my load Bearer may you be my resting place Lord Jesus may you be my rescue and
Lord help me not to succumb to the tricks of the enemy I will stand on your word that says in 2 Timothy 4:18 and the Lord will deliver me from every evil work and preserve me for his Heavenly Kingdom to him be glory forever and ever amen I ask that your presence would be with me always I bless your holy name and I thank you for hearing my prayer it's in Jesus name that I pray amen for though we walk in the flesh we do not war according to the flesh for the weapons of our
Warfare are not carnal But Mighty in God for pulling down strongholds casting down arguments and every High thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God bringing every thought into captivity to The Obedience of Christ for the word of God is living and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword piercing even to the division of Soul and Spirit and of joints and Marrow and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the [Music] heart for we do not wrestle against flesh and blood but against principalities against Powers against the rulers of the darkness of
this age against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the Heavenly places this is what the Bible says in Ephesians 6 verse 12 trust in the Lord and do good then you will live safely in the land and prosper take Delight in the Lord and He will give you your heart's desire commit everything you do to the Lord trust him and he will help you he will make your innocence radiate like the Dawn and the justice of your cause will shine like the Noonday Sun [Music]
