Ephesians 6:12 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.
We think that _____ is causing our problems. This verse tells us the real problem. We think that people, temptations, and 100 other things are the real problem. Nope. Our reaction to how we wrestle with dark forces is the reality.
Step one: Fight dark forces by repenting and resealing yourself.
Step two: Pray specifically against what you are wrestling against. Consider praying:
“Father, take away this darkness, and cover me with Your blood.”
Third, spend a block of time praying about how to wrestle effectively. Pray about how to fight sin. Pray about focusing on righteousness.
Fourth, increase your faith by reading scripture. Then have 100% confidence in your “Shield of faith” by which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
I believe that God’s ways are right, great, and are exactly what is best for me. When I am tempted I say:
“This is error. This will cause destruction. God’s ways are best.”
Wrestle – fight – win.
