“Look Into the Spirit”
“A Spiritual War”
Psalm 144:1 Blessed be the Lord my Rock, Who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle—
David was a warrior, and a man that God used to bring His judgment to His enemies. God is the commander of the armies of heaven. 1 Samuel 4:4
America has been in a war since 2020 and it hasn’t been against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers and wicked rulers in high places. The Holy Spirit teaches believers how to fight against these forces.
Ephesians 6:11-12 “Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.” “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”
Paul said that we are part of God’s fighting force on the earth. That makes every believer a warrior in the kingdom of God.
2 Timothy 2:3 A soldier on duty doesn’t get caught up in making deals at the marketplace. He concentrates on carrying out orders.
We are called to fight evil with spiritual weapons, not with carnal weapons. The weapons of our warfare are mighty in God for the overthrow of strongholds.
2 Corinthians 10:3-5 “For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds; Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;”
There are a lot of demons in this world and they have unique manifestations in people. Many sicknesses, mental disorders, and emotional problems can be traced to a demonic influence in people. Drugs, alcohol lower people’s natural defenses against the demonic, and serve as an open door to demonic influence. This causes them to come under the influence of spirits.
Jesus gives us the Great Commission that as His followers we need to preach the Gospel to everyone, and to cast out demons in His name and as we do Matthew 16:17-18 tells that signs will follow those who believe, and in God’s name will drive out demons.

Prayer Strategy for the Month of December:
Isaiah 9:6 (ESV) For to us a Child is born, to us a Son is given; and the government shall be upon His shoulder, and His Name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
This time of year we celebrate when Jesus was given to earth. Luke 2:12-14 (NLT) 12 And you will recognize Him by this sign: You will find a Baby wrapped snugly in strips of cloth, lying in a manger.” 13 Suddenly, the angel was joined by a vast host of others—the armies of Heaven—praising God and saying, 14 “Glory to God in highest heaven, and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased.”
The armies of Heaven praised God at the birth of Jesus Christ. Jesus is Lord and Master of all He has given us salvation, healing, deliverance, and freedom. He lived a perfect life that we could never live so that we might benefit from His righteousness. He is a Wonderful Counselor, He guides our every step, and comforts us in our distress. He is Mighty God all powerful and all sufficient for any of our needs. He is the Everlasting Father fully embracing us the prodigals who have all gone astray. He is the Prince of Peace the government is on His shoulder as He changes the times and seasons, removes kings and establishes kings.
Daniel 2:21 (AMP) “It is He Who changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and establishes kings. He gives wisdom to the wise And [greater] knowledge to those who have understanding!
It is so important that Christians agree with scripture and see Christ as the King. Where His Kingdom is there is righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
Romans 14:17 KJV For the Kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
Let’s pray for Jesus Christ to bless us this Christmas season with righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. We were born again to live righteous lives, to live lives once impossible for us to live in our sinful state. We were born once with the awful condition of sin, but born again through Jesus Christ to a righteous state and all our sins have been washed away by the blood of Jesus. When we ask Jesus into our life we repent and choose to live a holy life. We now live according to His ways and under His rule. Pray His righteousness be established in our hearts, and in the city of Tucson, our State of Arizona, and our Nation the United States of America. There is a tremendous peace that comes from righteous living because the sinful nature is buried when we crucify it daily. God in His mercy and grace gives us power to live righteously and to live in peace. Pray for peace in this nation. There is still division in these United States that God wants to deal with. There is war abroad and many lives that have been lost, and many more at risk. Pray God’s peace makers are successful in bringing an end to endless wars. Finally pray for joy in the Holy Ghost. There are many Christians that are angry heresy hunters out to correct others by playing the role of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit convicts and leads people to the righteous path. Pray more Christians yield to the Spirit and allow Him to bring correction and conviction. Pray that the church listen to His correction, repent of wayward ways, false teachings, and traditions of man. Pray His people go out with joy, grace, and mercy when they are used by God to speak correction and calls of repentance. Pray God’s people are not led by self-righteousness, insecurity, arrogance, or contempt, but are guided by His grace to bring correction in love and true righteousness. Pray that we as the family of God will have grace for one another, that even when we don’t get what we want, we can still love one another and be full of joy. Pray for harmony in the Church that we may rejoice as one voice to worship Jesus.
