Stronghold 3
Pulling Down Strongholds
Since our country has been at war for quite some time, it’s common to hear the word “battlefield” on the news. Although there is a physical battlefield where our soldiers are fighting for our country, there is another battlefield where all of us are fighting, and it lies within the confines of our mind.
One of the most prevalent ways in which satan attacks us is in our soul….the mind, the will, and the emotions. If we allow negative thoughts to sink in and we follow them down rabbit trails, then we can wind up in a very scary place.
God has given us weapons to fight these attacks. They are called “the weapons of our warfare” and He says, that they “are not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds, casting down imaginations [strongholds], and every high thing [strongholds] that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.”
It’s our responsibility to pull down those strongholds that keep us bound. Don’t allow negative thoughts to linger. When we are bombarded with the devil’s lies, we are to combat those lies with the truth…the truth of the Word of God.
If you are tempted to think, “I cannot make it”, then speak the truth of the Word of God to counter it and say, “I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.” If you are weak in body or emotions, say, “The Bible says let the weak say I am strong, so I AM STRONG!” If you are facing sickness and a bad report from the doctor, say, “I may be in a battle, but God says that no weapon formed against me shall prosper and that He heals all my diseases.”
You may be faced with facts… the facts of the situation. But the truth of the Word of God changes facts. By coming into agreement with the creator of the Universe, you set spiritual laws into motion. The Bible says that His Word is more powerful than any two-edged sword. This actually means a “two-mouthed sword”… one edge of the blade represents God speaking and the other edge represents us speaking. In combination, the force is so powerful that the enemy will have no choice but to run, with his tail between his legs, in the other direction.
Christ died and gave us authority here on this earth and He expects us to use that authority. He has provided us with powerful spiritual weapons that will defeat the enemy at every turn, if we use them. The problem within the body of Christ today is that Christians have become lazy, expecting everyone else to magically make all of their problems disappear. It doesn’t work that way. When the Bible says in James 4:7, “Therefore, submit yourselves to God. Resist the devil, and he will run away from you”, God is speaking directly to us and commanding us to take firm action.
Rise up today and begin pulling down those strongholds, whatever they may be in your life. You can do it because He lives in you and wants you to have complete and total victory over every stronghold….
