Beloved, once we give our life to Jesus Christ and we are His devoted believer and follower, Satan, the enemy of God, becomes our arch enemy as well.
God loves us passionately, and Satan hates what God loves, especially us who are devoted to Jesus Christ.
Whatever hardship or difficulty you may be experiencing;
Youโre not just tired.
Youโre not just under pressure.
Youโre under spiritual attack.
And the devil is not playing games โ heโs playing for souls to take down to hell with him.
In fact, Jesus tells us in John 10:10 that Satan โThe thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy.โฆโ
In 1 Peter 5:8 we are warned us..
โBe sober [well balanced and self-disciplined], be alert and cautious at all times. That enemy of yours, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion [fiercely hungry], seeking someone to devour. But resist him, be firm in your faith [against his attackโrooted, established, immovable], knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being experienced by your brothers and sisters throughout the world. [You do not suffer alone.]โ

It is fought on our knees.
It is won in fervent prayers.
It is secured by the blood of Jesus.
All we have to do is just look at the world around us. Can you feel the war around you?
The warfare
– in your mind,
– on marriages,
– on our peace,
– on our purpose?
and the list goes on.
Youโre not crazy โ
Youโre in a war, even if you donโt see it.

2 Corinthians 10:4-6 AMP tells us 
โThe weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood].
Our weapons are divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses.
We are destroying sophisticated arguments and every exalted and proud thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God,
and we are taking every thought and purpose captive to the obedience of Christ, being ready to punish every act of disobedience, when your own obedience [as a church] is complete.โ

๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐.
Beloved, Stand up, Suit up.
Pray like your life depends on it โ because it DOES.
Jesus already won the war for usโ but weโre called to fight until He returns.
We are fighting from a position of victory.
Hold the line.

Lord Jesus, thank You for the victory that You already won on the cross for us.
Lord, help us to recognize the war that the enemy of our souls is waging against us.
Lord, give us the strength and wisdom to pray fervently against the enemy until You come.
Jesus, I pray that You would destroy the works of Satan in our lives, the lives of our children, and our loved ones.
Crush Satan under our feet according to Your Word in Luke 10:19.
Abide with us Holy Spirit at all times.
In Jesus Christโs most powerful name, I pray. Amen 
Have a blessed day
