WEAPONS AGAINST THE DEVIL

[Thursday, July 19, 2012]

2Corinthinans 10: 4-6 the weapons we fight with are not the weapons of this world (guns, knives, our negative words, etc.). On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient in Christ, and we will be ready to punish every act of disobedience, once your obedience is fulfilled (completed).

(These is the footnotes of the NIV Life in the Spirit Study Bible)
Christian’s warfare involves bringing all our thoughts into alignment with Christ's will, failure to do so will lead to immorality and spiritual death. Use the following four steps to bring your thought life under Christ's lordship.

1.      Be aware that God knows every thought and that nothing is hidden from him. We will have to give account to God for our thoughts as well as for our words and deeds.

2.     Be aware that the mind is a battleground. Some thoughts originate within us, while others come directly from the enemy. To take captive every thought requires warfare against both our sinful nature and satanic forces. Steadfastly resist and reject evil and unwholesome thoughts in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Remember that we as believers overcome our adversary by the blood of the Lamb, by the word of our testimony, and by persistently saying "NO" to the devil, temptation and sin.

3.     Be resolute in focusing your mind on Christ and heavenly things rather than on earthly things, for the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace. Fill our mind with God's Word and with those things that are noble, excellent and praiseworthy.

4.     Always be careful what your eyes see and your ears hear. Resolutely refuse to let your eyes be an instrument for lust or to set any worthless or evil thing before your eyes, whether in books, magazines, pictures, television programs, cinema, videos, internet or in real life.

If we use these tactics we will defeat the enemy every time. So be strong in the lord and in the power of His might. God bless
