Fighting spiritual battles using natural methods will wear you out, frustrate you, and leave you feeling depleted. You were never meant to fight these battles on your own. In the Old Testament, God said it like this: “The Lord will fight for you; you need only be still” (Exodus 14:14). In the New Testament, Jesus tells us in John 14:16, “And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever.” This means you can win natural battles by activating supernatural power and assistance from heavenly realms by decreeing out loud God’s truth and standing firm and immovable in faith, even when things don’t look in your favor.

Every soldier must go through a training process before entering the battle. The Lord’s army is no different. He doesn’t want us on the battlefield of life weak and defenseless. Our tools, armor, and strategies for success do not look like the natural world’s because our battle is not really in the natural world. Ephesians 6:12 states, “Our battle is not with flesh and blood, but against rulers, against authorities, against powers of this dark world, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” If the battle is not natural, using carnal or natural tools certainly will keep us trapped in the defense and never allow us to step into the offense where we gain territory.

Our training begins with the Word of God. The Word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of thoughts and intents of the heart (Hebrews 4:12). The Word of God is a valuable asset because it is our shield, our weapon, our master plan for victory, and our security system that exposes breaches and weak points in us or our territory. When we know and activate the living Word of God, we wage war against the enemies of God the way Paul describes in 2 Corinthians 10:4-5: “The weapons we fight with are not of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take every thought captive, making it obedient to Christ.”

I want to encourage you, whatever battle you’re facing, God has something for you in His written word to encourage you through this trial, strengthen you in your spirit, break off every weak place, and lead you to victory. You activate the heavenly realms to go to war for you as you rest in His word, by growing in knowledge of the word, and then speaking that word with your mouth through prayer, praise, and worship. As my pastor likes to say, “It’s a fixed fight” (David Reed, Lead Pastor at Generations Church). Remember, you are not in this battle alone! When Elisha awoke surrounded by Syrian armies, things looked hopeless, but angel armies and chariots of fire led them to victory. Nothing can successfully stand against the armies of heaven. We have the keys to the kingdom. Let’s start using them!
