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.”
The target is clearly defined. Our enemy is spiritual. Keeping a clear focus on the true nature of our demonic assailants is essential. So much of our time is wasted, energy expended and injury incurred because we spend ourselves battling people instead of the spiritual forces at work! In the process of attempting to beat believers into defeat in their personal lives, the devil attempts to divert the force of our spiritual warfare toward others in our families, our churches, work place and community.
The devil knows full well these two things: (1) if we start fighting other people, they will certainly oblige us and fight back, and (2) that if we start fighting each other, we will never get around to defeating him.
So, whatever (or whoever) you face today, make up your mind about the conflict. Your enemy is the devil. Today make war in prayer! Make peace with those around you! So the devil stands no chance of winning in your life.
