BATTLE OF A CHRISTIAN ( By Alvin Mark)
After being born again we all declared to be at war with the devil and also with the world. In today's sermon we are reminded that we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities, forces of the darkness etc. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of [ a ] the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.( Ephesians 6 :12) With this in mind we are strengthened in the Lord and in His word knowing that the battle even though it is against us is not ours but the Lord's. And he said, “Listen, all you of Judah and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and you, King Jehoshaphat! Thus says the Lord to you: ‘Do not be afraid nor dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God's . ( 2 chronicles 20:15)
