Fight Like a Girl for God!



Psalm 18:37-38
37 I pursued my enemies and overtook them;
I did not turn back till they were destroyed.
38 I crushed them so that they could not rise;
they fell beneath my feet.

Have you ever watched an action packed movie during a fighting scene when the hero is battling the enemy in fast motion and it goes by so fast that it's almost as if they did it instinctively without thinking? Well, God wants us to be so well prepared for the enemies attacks to come at any time that we will just be called to immediate action to defeat the enemy. Really, we don't have much work because Jesus has already defeated the enemy eternally we just have to fight off the enemy on earth.

Our actions should be premeditated we should know our enemy and the way the enemy works. A good soldier goes into battle knowing their enemy and knowing what tactics to initiate against them in order to achieve victory. The problem is that the enemy is also familiar with us also. Satan will use what he knows about us to attack us. That is why we struggle against our flesh. Satan can't touch the Christ on the throne but he can mess with the flesh. We need to learn what weapons and ammunition we have to fight with. Prayer is a powerful ammunition, I say it's an ammunition because when the heavenly hosts fight against the demons our prayers give them strength. Therefore we must know how to pray effectively. When we pray we should use as much scripture as possible we also should not hesitate to pray in tongues if you have the gift of tongues. Just exclaiming the word of God over your life and your enemy is a powerful weapon. The word is a sword and is able to pierce through even bone! That's pretty sharp!

So keep well armed and prepared for battle, called to action, and well equipped. You will not hesitate in which direction to move nor will you hesitate on things behind you. Remember the victory is ours!

Romans 8:37 No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.
