14. The Law of Spiritual Warfare
• Ephesians 6:12 – “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age.”
• 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 – “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds.”
The believer’s authority must be exercised in the context of spiritual warfare - this is active, not passive. Understanding your weapons and the enemy equips you to enforce victory.
Application:
1. Put on the Armor: Daily clothe yourself in the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18).
2. Engage in Prayer: Fight spiritual battles through intercession and declarations - decree what is written.
3. Take Authority: Command demonic forces to flee in Jesus’ name (Mark 16:17).
