What Is Our Warfare?


What Is Our Warfare?

Jesus told us to watch and pray; to watch (know) the signs of our time and to pray for the LORD of the harvest to send in workers.
Jesus told us to seek, to ask and to knock: to seek the righteousness of GOD and His Kingdom, to seek His will for us and ours as it is in Heaven; Jesus told us to ask (pray) for wisdom, knowledge, discernment and understanding, to ask for His will to be done in the earth as it is in Heaven; Jesus told us to knock so doors will be opened to us to do the works of His Kingdom in the earth.
Jesus told us to build our life on Him, the Chief cornerstone and the foundation of our faith with the Keys of His Kingdom: Jesus Christ the Son of GOD and Messiah (Savior) of Humanity.
Jesus told us to be the salt and light of His Kingdom where we live and work.
Jesus told us to resist the gates of hell.
Jesus told us to love one another and obey His commandments so the world would know we were His disciples.
Jesus told us to preach the gospel to all the world, to lay hands on the sick and see them recover, to cast out demons, to raise the dead and to make disciples of the nations.

Paul told us to stand fast in the liberty with which Christ has made us free.
Paul told us to put on the armor of GOD.
Paul told us to pray without ceasing, to rejoice always and to be thankful in all things.
Paul told us to resist the devil.
Paul told us our warfare is not against flesh and blood but principalities, powers and rulers of darkness; that the weapons (prayer, fasting and obedience) of our warfare are powerful for pulling down spiritual strongholds.
Paul told us to think (meditate) on things that are above and not below, on that which is true, noble, just, pure, lovely, of a good report, virtuous, and praiseworthy.
Paul told us to know the power of Jesus’ resurrection and the fellowship of His suffering and to be conformed to His death.
Paul told us to keep our bodies (the temples of Holy Spirit) pure and holy.

Jude told us to contend earnestly for the faith that was delivered to the saints (us).
Jude told us to build ourselves up in our holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keeping ourselves in love, looking for the mercy of GOD, having compassion on some and saving others.

Jesus, Peter, James, John and Paul all told us to endure to the end the trials of life, persecutions of the faith, and temptations of the flesh with joy and thanksgiving.
Jesus, Peter, James, John and Paul all told us to not sin (hating, lying, cheating, immorality, evil deeds, lust, lacking integrity, etc.), to be holy and to do the works of the Father in the earth.
Jesus, Peter, James, John and Paul all told us to not be religious but to be obedient to the will of GOD.

All of these are the weapons of our warfare because our warfare is against our flesh, against the world and against spiritual powers; all of which have been defeated by Jesus Christ and His victory given to those who believe in Him and call on His name in faith; being obedient to the will of our Heavenly Father in the earth as it is in Heaven.
