WHAT WE FIGHT
Ephesians 6:12
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places].
When we understand who the enemy is, then victory is already ours. This is the literal wisdom in strategic planning to win a war.
Thus the bible allows us to see who the enemy is, that we may not make the error of taking on the wrong armour and weapons but be well prepared for the enemy we face.
Thus David did not need to go against Goliath with Saul's armour but with the missile of the Lord. The proclamation of the authority of God, placing the giant in his place " uncircumcised Philistine" then he declared his downfall. Thus a sling and a stone went out not just as a physical weapon but empowered to precisely hit target and destroy the enemy.
Therefore we learn and understand that we prepare ourselves always ready, never found off guard as we continue on our own journey, not forgetting that many have gone before us and many may still come after us.
Ephesians 6:13
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
There is always the tendency to see it as being all about the human instrument, however we ought to see the way Jesus saw it.
Matthew 16:23
But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.
I see the Lord strengthening us day after day. We will be alert in the Spirit. We will enjoy the manifestation of the victory we have in Christ Jesus. Halleluyah.
We are blessed.
