It is in your mind where Satan is unleashing his all-out war. The war you are fighting is not against flesh and blood. It is not a mental battle fought through the power of positive thinking, head knowledge, psychological techniques, or your limited mental abilities. It is a spiritual battle in your mind which must be fought and won in the power of the Holy Spirit.
Satan's strategy is to bombard your mind with fiery darts of unbelief, fear, worry, confusion, temptation, depression, oppression, and deception. He will try to fill your mind with evil desires and lusts of the flesh. Anxiety, fear, defeat, and discouragement concerning the circumstances in your life are all mental tactics that result in a heart filled with hopelessness and despair.
But Satan’s power over your mind can be broken! God has made total provision so you can be victorious in every battle, just as He did for the nation of Israel. Israel had all the power it needed to overcome their enemies and claim their inheritance. As you prepare to fulfill your divine destiny, God has also provided you with everything you need.
You are facing an enemy that has already been defeated. Two thousand years ago when Jesus cried, “It is finished,” the war against Satan was won. Through His precious blood that was shed on the cross, you are totally delivered out of Satan’s hands and that deliverance includes your heart and mind.
Satan has no claims over you whatsoever! “For sin shall not have dominion over you...” (Romans 6:14). You are no longer living in the kingdom of darkness under Satan’s dominion as “prince of this world.” You are a joint heir with Christ in the Kingdom of God. Satan has no power over you other than what you yield to him.
God does not expect you to face Satan and the evil forces of wickedness in your own strength. He has given you authority over all the power of the enemy through the Holy Spirit within you. He has provided powerful spiritual armor that makes you invulnerable and invincible against all of Satan’s attacks. He has armed you with weapons of warfare, enabling you to pull down every stronghold of the enemy (2 Corinthians 10:4-5).
God has given the power to you to pull down Satan’s strongholds and totally demolish them. But your victory over Satan is not automatic. Victory is yours only as you put on the armor of God, use your spiritual weapons of warfare, resist Satan, and enforce the victory Jesus secured on the cross. Your mind is Satan’s major arena of attack where spiritual battles must be fought and won. You must learn to enforce the victory that Christ has secured for you--right there, on the major battlefield of your life.
PRAYER:
My FATHER, My God, this year let my life reflect the blessing of the Lord, I shall not be static, I decree PROGRESS, FAVOR, HONOR, AND INFLUENCE are my portion. My life is SALTED, My speech is SALTED, My Home and Business are SALTED in the name of Jesus.
