On Christian Spiritual Warfare Lisa Bedrick

When we think of the Christian life do we think God will make everything better and easy for us? Do we think we will get to live this life and the next in a lazy, comfy chair and get to recline and relax forever? Does it ever occur to us that we are in a world at war? That there are spiritual forces all around us fighting and raging? Do we ever realize that God made us and empowers us for battle? And that his intention for us is not to lay on a beach somewhere or bury our heads in the sand? What if God wants us to get angry? But angry about the right things. What if we are God?s soldiers and we are called to fight for Him and for all that he stands for? We don?t fight against other people but against evil spiritual forces. We fight against demons that cause pain and abuse and injustice in our world. Amen.
