093 Spiritual Warfare is Real

Episode Summary:

In this episode we talk about the reality of spiritual warfare and the fact that we can be securely held in the midst of such battles.

Quotables from the episode:

If you are living and breathing, you will experience spiritual warfare in some way. We were not born on a playground—we were born onto a battlefield. Our previous wounds coupled with bitterness and resentment give Satan access to our hearts and lives. The longer we nurse our wounds, the more they become an idol in our lives.

Scripture References:

1 John 4:4 “You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.” Deuteronomy 33:12 “About Benjamin he said: ‘Let the beloved of the LORD rest secure in him, for he shields him all day long, and the one the LORD loves rests between his shoulders.’”
