Stop fighting spiritual battles with physical weapons

I. MY BELOVED COURAGE SISTER, this week be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might. At this point in time, we need the power and strength of God to move on. I encourage you to put on the whole armour of God so that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Remember that we are wrestling not only against flesh and blood but also against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, and against spiritual wickedness in high places. The Word of God is our only powerful weapon to defeat the enemy, both physically and spiritually. In a world filled with spiritual and physical battles, we need to arm ourselves with the right weapon to overcome them. WITHOUT THE POWER OF GOD, WE CAN DO NOTHING. STOP FIGHTING SPIRITUAL BATTLES WITH PHYSICAL WEAPONS.

II. DAUGHTER OF ZION, the enemy, who is a master schemer, deploys the tactics of deceit, lies, and manipulation to cause doubts and fear in us. The enemy’s target is to separate us from God's love and protection, then he can attack us. Wherefore let us take the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; and above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Beloved sister, the armour of God is our strategic weapon. The belt of truth serves as our foundation, holding us firmly; the breastplate of righteousness affirms our way of life with Christ; the shoes of peace equip us to move and share the Gospel, the shield of faith helps us to trust in God's promises; the helmet of salvation gives us our assurance in Christ; and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God, is our attacking machinery. EMBRACE THE ARMOUR OF GOD TO FIGHT BOTH PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL BATTLES.

III. BELOVED COURAGE BROTHER, we cannot win our battles without prayer. We must pray always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watch thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. Temptation will definitely come our way daily, but our response is crucial. Remember, if the devil dared to tempt Jesus Christ in the wilderness, then you, as a follower of Jesus Christ, will also face temptation at your workplace, at home, within your church, in your community, and wherever you may find yourself. Always respond to temptation through the word of God. Jesus Christ quoted scripture to defeat the enemy; let us do likewise. The power of scripture, the living word, is still active. Remember, anytime you are confronted, use the word “it is written." Beloved, don’t give up on the spiritual battles you face; you have a powerful weapon: the Word of God. Let us arm ourselves with Scripture, trust in its promises, and declare its truth against the enemy's lies. MAY WE EMERGE VICTORIOUS, STANDING FIRM IN OUR FAITH AND ROOTED IN GOD'S WORD.

IV. PRECIOUS FRIEND don’t be frightened anymore of the enemy, whether they come physical or spiritual, for the LORD of Heaven’s Armies will lash them with his whip, as he did when Gideon triumphed over the Midianites at the rock of Oreb or when the LORD’s staff was raised to drown the enemy's army in the red sea. For these forces, you see, pursuing you shall very soon pass away, and you shall be enthroned on your rightful throne. This is a DIVINE FOOD FOR THE SOUL prepared by Christ Jesus and served to those under persecution through God's Vessel Francis Ameyibor, Yes! The day of the Lord cometh when the burdens of your persecutors shall be lifted from your shoulders.

V. 2024 MY YEAR TO ENCOUNTER DIVINE DELIVERANCE - And it shall come to pass in that day that the yoke of your persecutors shall be removed from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of God's anointing.

PRAYER: LORD, we come before you today, acknowledging that we are in a spiritual battle. We know that our enemies are scheming against us, trying to separate us from your love and protection. But we also know that you have given us a powerful weapon to defeat them. Lord, this week, we pray for spiritual strength and wisdom to wield your word effectively against our enemy. May we be victorious in our battles, standing firm in our faith and rooted in your Word. Thank you for your love and protection. In Jesus' name, we pray, Amen.
