How do you fight your battles? If you are not fighting in prayer then you need to learn how to fight better. We received all of the tools to battle the enemy when we were filled with the Holy Spirit. A friend from church posted this line post on Facebook a few weeks ago, "If we're just praying and not praying and fighting, we're losing... #prayerwarrior". As I was asking God what to share with all of you next, he told me "fighting in prayer". So here are some verses to help you fight in prayer, with prayer. Through the Holy Spirit you have the AUTHORITY! Be a prayer warrior.
And He called to Him His twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out and to heal every disease and every affliction.
Matthew 10:1
And He called the twelve and began to send them out two by two, and gave them the authority over unclean spirits.
Mark 6:7
Behold I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you.
Luke 10:19
Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons. You received without paying; give without pay.
Matthew 10:6-8
Declare these things: and exhort and rebuke with all authority. Let no one disregard you.
Titus 2:15
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, to the end of the earth.
Acts 1:8
For the kingdom of God is not in word but in power.
1 Cor 4:20
These scriptures tell us that we have the power, the authority to fight for our families, our friends, ourselves, even our country, our president, the world. When we pray in the name of Jesus Christ we are using the power of the Holy Spirit. I urge you to use the tools we were given, our weapon is prayer, to defeat the enemy. We can defeat him, it is written that in the end he loses. Don't let him have one more soul. Fight in prayer, fight with prayer, be a prayer warrior.
Have a blessed week.
Great post, Debi. No I'm wondering if we don't see miracles today like in Jesus's days because we don't TRY, or the miracles are masked by "medical remedies", etc.
ReplyDeleteHi Kim,
DeleteI think that the miracles are happening all of the time. I see so many miracles, but I think sometimes because they have taken a long time, we don't acknowledge them. Like your daughter turning back to God and Jesus. That is a miracle. I know you were praying and so were a lot of other people. I think you try, and I try to see the miracles, but you are right, I think a lot of people don't believe, so they can't see. How can you see a miracle if you have no faith?
Have a great week.

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Heb 11:1
