Much has changed in the business of warfare since the scourged of terrorism took on a new form, becoming more sinister, unpredictably borderless, and wantonly cruel. Arms technology has invented sophisticated and lethal instruments of death. We see the amazing capability of the predator drones, Apache Longbows, bunker busters, bio-chem bombs, or the Stryker teams.
Mankind may not be aware but in the spiritual realm, there is likewise a more intense warfare being waged. This battle cannot be fought using human methods or instruments. “The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world”, says St. Paul the Apostle(2Cor. 10:4)
God’s warriors do not wage war as the world does.(v.3) They use the mighty weapons of righteousness, truth, love, and humility. They use weapons of divine power to demolish strongholds , and take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.(v.5). They put on the full armor of God, the shield of faith, the breastplate of righteousness, the belt of truth, the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit which is the word of God.(Eph.6).
