Why You Should Read Christian Books On Spiritual Warfare

By Stella Gay


Christianity is one of the religions in the world that has many resources for reference. It is first important to note that life in life there are many spiritual attacks because the devil does not want to see you succeed in your faith. We want to focus in this article the benefits of reading Christian books on spiritual warfare so that you can better be prepared for all situations. We should also know that Christianity is not a religion of talk but on of action and power. The Bible states that we need to fear nothing but conquer in every situation.

When Christ resurrected, he defeated death in the grave. The resurrection made it easier for every person to wage war against dark forces successfully. It means that we must be strong because Christ gives up hope that he will never leave us alone.

On the days before the death of Christ, he promised to give us a helper that would lead us in every place and situation. When the Holy Spirit descended on the apostles on the day of Pentecost, we were given power and strength to overcome every situation.

The holy spirit is always with us to ensure that it gives us direction at a time that we are reached a hard place and rock. We are given a spirit of love and power to bring down any strongholds that want to bound us. Being strong does not mean that you will never be discouraged but is says that if we hold to Christ we will make it. Many of the Christians of this generation want to see quick results in matters of the faith. But God has his timing of everything in your life. Let him take charge of all your battles, and you will become victorious.

The best way to be consistent in waging war against sin is through prayer. We should embark on regular prayer and fasting, to put our fleshy desires to control. If you look at the apostles that went ahead of us, you will realize that they kept the faith in praying together at all times. The disciples knew that it was not because of their strength and power that they were able to conquer many situations. But it was due to the power and manifestation of the Holy Spirit.

It is important to allow the Holy Spirit to take full control of every situation in our life. Praying, reading the Bible and fasting are some of the proven ways that can renew their relationship with God and keep evil at bay. The Spirit of God makes us strong and able to withstand temptations and persecution. The early church met in night vigil and prayed together to keep enjoying the fellowship of the brethren.

On matters of spiritual warfare the closer your relationship with God the more you will understand that the battle does not belong to you. Attacks come in different forms such as sicknesses, joblessness and family tribulations among others. These are some the situations when we find our self we lose the focus on God and start thinking of human solutions.

Finally, be in the fellowship of other believers, and you will always find encouragement if you see the life of other believers having testimonies. The devil fears the unity in the church and can do anything to bring discord between the believers.
