SPIRITUAL WARFARE AGAINST ALL THE PLANS OF THE ENEMY

Romans 8:28 – “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.”

1. Let us thank the Lord because we confidently trust that everything works together to our advantage because we are called and work in accordance with God’s own purpose.

Jeremiah 29:11 – “For I know the plans and thoughts that I have for you,’ says the Lord, ‘plans for peace and well-being and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.”

Proverbs 18:20-21 – “A man’s stomach shall be satisfied from the fruit of his mouth; From the produce of his lips he shall be filled. [21] Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.”

2. Ask the Lord to grant you the aid to consistently speak His plan into existence and to speak against the plan of the enemy through prayers.

Luke 10:18-19 – “He said to them, “I watched Satan fall from heaven like [a flash of] lightning. [19] Listen carefully: I have given you authority [that you now possess] to tread on serpents and scorpions, and [the ability to exercise authority] over all the power of the enemy (Satan); and nothing will [in any way] harm you. [0] Nonetheless do not rejoice at this, that the spirits are subject to you.”

3. By the power bestowed upon us from heaven, let us take authority over every tactic of the defeated enemy who seeks to destroy marriages, health, finances, businesses, careers, God-given assignments, your children, divine relationships, and spiritual growth.

Genesis 1:1-2 –“[1] In the beginning God (prepared, formed, fashioned, and) created the heavens and the earth. [Heb. 11:3.] [2] The earth was without form and an empty waste, and darkness was upon the face of the very great deep. The Spirit of God was moving (hovering, brooding) over the face of the waters.”

4. Ask the Holy Spirit to bring resolution to challenging situations, stubborn and addictive behaviours, draining toxic relationships, your children’s challenges, difficult phases, in your marriage, and problematic leaders or managers.

1st Peter 5:8 – “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour”.

Psalm 119:98 – “Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: For they are ever with me.”

5. Let us pray that the Lord will grant us wisdom that makes us wiser and more vigilant than the enemy, enabling us to overcome every move he makes to sabotage our plans.

Ephesians 6:11-12 – “Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. [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.”

6. Ask the Lord to help us to continually watch and pray, in order to withstand every strategy of the enemy that seeks to lure us away from God-given plans, promptings, instructions, premonitions, through failures, disappointments, divisions, discouragements, unforgiveness, enemy whispers and recommendations.

Thank God for answered prayers.
