Transcript: Bible Spiritual Warfare: 5 Powerful Weapons to Defeat Satan

Hello my dear brothers and sisters, praise the Lord and a warm welcome to one and all of you. My greetings to you and your family in the name of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I am very happy to meet with you again. Why? Because every single day is precious. Every single moment is precious. Every microsecond is precious because the moment we lose our lives, we will be landing a bager in the place of torment or we may land up in the place of paradise where the saints are dwelling and that the kind of life you are living here on earth will determine which is going to be your place and that's why I want to thank God that we are using our time we are making the best use of our time to share the word of God and we are here to meditate from the word of God much from the word of God. Many people don't do it, right? They're busy with some or other things of the world. And I want to thank him for every one of you. All right. So these are the short sessions we are doing. Why? Because this will be leading you towards the truth. And there are many more sessions available and waiting for you in the playlist. And I really want you to go and please subscribe in our channel and get access to all the playlists. Share it with your near ones, dear ones, friends, relatives, everyone and please ensure that you listen up to all these sessions which we are doing with a lot of efforts. Alright. Today's meditation is about the spiritual weapons. What are the spiritual weapons? I have heard about AK-47, grenade and missiles and this and that. Yes, this spiritual weapon, I mean these spiritual weapons, there are six weapons we are going to meditate today. They are going to be trillion times powerful than any of the weapons. One click of the button nuclear weapons are readily waiting one nation to another nation china has nuclear weapons india has us has russia has many all these guys one minute time it's enough to kill the world nuclear weapons if it comes and strikes right because of the treaty what they have uh you know they have a treaty right due to which they have signed an agreement that they will not fire against each other but god knows right god only knows if god decides one click of the button we are finished but these weapons I am talking about they are trillion times you can't even imagine they are much much more powerful greater than these nuclear weapons and I will prove it to you in a moment of time stay tuned I want to read a verse from the word of God Ephesians chapter 6 and verse 12 and the title itself is the armor of God armor of God means the weapons right which you can protect yourself and fight against fight against whom that's what we are going to read from Ephesians 6-12 for we do not wrestle against flesh and blood. What does it mean? All of you are fighting with each other, no? Including me. As a human being, we always end up fighting with some or other person. Correct, no? And we always have war with blood and flesh. Did you notice what he spoke? Did you notice what she said? Did you hear that sister and all that? It's not about them. Someone else is behind them, operating them and making you sin right and that's what you need to be mindful all about mindful of right i will read the second half but against the principalities for we do not wrestle against flesh and blood and navy version for our fight is not with the blood and flesh but against principalities against powers against the rulers of the darknesses of this age against spiritual house so wickedness in the heavenly places it's about heavenlies and none of these guys will be visible in your eyes i can tell you this we have done a series know your enemy 23 hours i have spoken there only from ephesians 6 and i want you to go on please listen to those 23 hours of teaching it will help you very much and this is only a sneak peek an essence i am giving okay and many many sessions other sessions also we have done how the demons will come against the children of god and they will fight against us It's also been widely spoken in almost all the sessions. But in this session, what we are trying to say here is, there are many, many categories of demons moving across, right? Principalities against the powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age. The ruler of the earth is devil. For some time, he had been given that permission to rule over the earth, but not forever, right? There is a time coming where our God Almighty will take away that power, those powers. He will grab those powers and he will be shut. and then he will be released for some more time and then he will be shut not shut he will be thrown into the lake of fire no more bottomless pit it's all will be dissolved all this we have explained in the know your enemy series revelation 20 from revelation 20 onwards we have explained everything so you need to go and listen that now I don't have time to cover that all these guys have been given certain powers and through those powers they will be able to devour tempt somebody right That why I keep telling every when a blessing comes do not think it is from God The devil also can bless why because you have been given the powers to bless the riches And honor is not necessarily from God all the time It is also from the devil right and they are the rulers of the earth the darkness is of this age the spiritual hosts of darkness wickedness right and they are from the dark side and they are in the heavenlies heavenlies means second heaven first heaven is where the birds will fly second heaven is a place where they are staying third heaven is called as paradise that's where Paul went and came back and he was not allowed to write anything that he has witnessed there right we can read in second Corinthians chapter 11 and 12 right and all those things you you know the second heaven is the place from where he will be sending his host and the bottomless pit is the place where they are being shut but there is a small opening through which they will be climbing up to earth and they will be finishing their job going back and sending the other people they work in shifts kind of and their headquarters is second heaven no place on earth right although they rule the earth with the powers but the earth has been predestined for you and me physically they cannot live therefore they need a body, right? And those who shall cooperate with them, they will immediately come inside them. And those who shall cooperate with God, the Father, the Holy Spirit will immediately come and reside inside of us. Our body becomes the temple of God, sanctuary of God. Bible says that, right? And 1 Corinthians 3.16, you can read, right? And John 14, what is that 1423 i think no 1416 i think yeah 1423 and 1427 26 all this you can take and read our body is the sanctuary the trinity comes and lives there is what bible says you all should be understanding that very clearly now how to fight against these guys that's what i told initially itself right when somebody fights with you never look at them it was not that brother it was not dead sister. I can guarantee. Because why? These are the forces that you know, that operates those people. Maybe a believer, unbeliever doesn't matter. It can be your own wife. It can be your own husband, your own father-in-law, mother-in-law, mother, father, whoever it may be. Your own child. The devil will use them to kindle your anger, to provoke you to anger, to kindle your emotions, emotional outbursts, hypertension. You will get into all of these things when you know. When you have not understood Ephesians 6. Ephesians 6.12 especially correct now how to fight against that's the remediation plan we want to talk and with that we will close it's going to be a pretty short session there are six weapons Bible prescribes if the doctor is prescribing some medicine you won't even check anywhere because why you want the sickness to get out of your body you want to be free of pain you want to be free of this bondage you want to be normal and you want to become well like how you were before Therefore, whatever the doctor prescribes, one pill in the morning, two pills in the afternoon, five pills in the night, immediately you will grab and you will drink water and you have to sleep for 24 hours, you will sleep. Whether you get sleep or not, you will close your eyes and you will pretend as if you are sleeping, correct or not. Why? Because you want to get well. Similarly, this is called as spiritual sickness. If you are unaware of certain truths in the gospel, you are spiritually sick, you are spiritually inflicted. Therefore, your prescription are these six weapons, six medicines only you can tell. Bible says in Proverbs 3.8 and 4.22 that the word of God is health to the body and healing to the flesh or medicine to the flesh. correct no now i'm talking about the prescription using which you will be healed from your spiritual sickness and also you will be a victor who can fight that battle against the principalities against the demons who are unseen right that's the dangerous part see if you know your enemy you will definitely be able to fight because then and you will also be able to see what weapon he carries and you will carry a bigger weapon than that and you will fire him to death correct no But when your battle becomes so worst and tough, you know, when you don't see the enemy, unseen, he's an invisible enemy moving around and you don't even know what kind of weapon, bow and arrow or is it a missile or a grenade or 847 pistol, what is that? You don't know. And you'll be using the people, the mankind. And the mankind will be looking like you, two eyes and one nose and one mouth and two hands and ten fingers. Like that only you will be able to see. Correct, no? And you won't be able to make out. then how are you going to fight? That's why the battle with the spiritual forces, the heavenlies are so tough that you and I need to be trained with certain prescriptions. The prescribed methods are the following. Number one, you know what is the number weapon? Number one weapon and number one prescription? Verse number, yeah, 14. Ephesians 6, 14. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with the truth. You know, what is the truth? it called as belt of truth number one prescription you must be a person who always abides in the laws and commandments of God Therefore you are a person who walk in truth Therefore you are blessed. Right? If there is no truth in you, because Jesus said, I am the life, the way and the truth. It doesn't make any sense. You say that, oh, Jesus is my Lord of Lords and King of Kings, but then you are a liar. You know, truth means what you know. Whatever the word of God asks you to do, you should say yes to it. If the word of God says that whatever this brother is offering or this sister is offering is not right. Say no to it. Whatever the Holy Spirit is telling you, please do it. You have to be a person who is being led by the Spirit, walking in the Spirit. Ephesians 5 says that. No, you please read that later. Sorry, the Galatians 5 says that. You please take and read later, right? And that is called as walking in truth, abiding in the Word of God, adhering to the promises of God, staying grounded and rooted firmly in the Word of God. that is called as belt of truth why people put belt because the pant is loose if they don't put the belt the pant will fall down sorry for the funny example similarly what happens is you don't wear the belt of truth you will be exposed you will be naked and you will be and the devil will say what guts you have got to fight against me man me and you are the same you are like me you are a liar also you are a murderer too therefore you take and put the word of God and you tie it up with the belt of truth, then what happens? You are not the devil anymore. The demons that were once ruling you will be fleeing the spot. Number one prescription, number one weapon to fight against the wiles of the devil is to be grounded and rooted in the word of God. And the word of God, it's not just hearing, being the reader, but be the doer of the word. And the word of God must become your driving force, your energy, your driving force, your decisions, everything must be based on the word of God and consult, consult, take counsel from the word of God. That's called as the belt of truth. And tell me, how will you lose the battle against the demons? It's other way around. The demons will lose their battle against you. They won't be able to withstand you. And that's why wherever Jesus went, the demons came trembling down, rolling on the ground. Oh, Jesus, why have you come to torment us before the appointed time? and because we are not able to bear this torture you know, command us, we will get into the pigs pigs drowned and they all were dead okay, coming to the second prescription, you are all with me right I am not preaching a tough thing and Bible is not tough, it is the simplest book on earth, only the devil has complicated it, right but God never wrote a complicated book, very simple book, secondly having put on the breastplate of righteousness breastplate of righteousness belt of truth tightly coupled breastplate you know right it's it's talking about a man of war you are like a man of war ready for the spiritual battle but not with the brother not with the sister with the principalities and the powers of darknesses right the breastplate of righteousness means anything and everything that the bible demands to take you to heaven to ask to make you walk in that narrow pathway it's tightly coupled with the belt of truth right? Seek the kingdom of Lord first and it's righteousness. You know what is righteousness means? Righteousness means very simple. You should be honest and blameless in the sight of God. What can make you honest? What can make you blameless in the sight of God? When you are abiding in the fruit of the spirit. Nine different flavors within the fruit, right? Gentleness, self-control, kindness, you know, long-suffering, joy, peace, faith, love, all these things, right? When you embrace and make this to be your habitation, to be your habitual practice, When you abide, when every decision you take, every word that proceeds off your mouth is checking on these different flavors, then what happens? You are that righteous person. You will be so forgiving. You will be so kind. You will be so patient. There will be no blemish in you. And you won't gel with all sorts of people who are on the side of the devil. You will have no association with the people who are into worldly pleasures and who are with the demonic wisdom. You will say no to them. You will not hate them. You will not count them as your enemy. You will pray for them, but then you will not mingle with them. Neither with the devil. Right? The devil cannot come. The tempter will be at work, but he cannot win your soul. Second, third prescription. And having shot your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace. You will be a peacemaker. In Romans, it's there. I forgot the verse. And pursue peace with men. Therefore, you will be holy. And you will be seeing the presence of God. Bible says in Hebrews 14, 12. Correct now. Hebrews 12, 14. 12, 14. Sorry. Hebrews 12, 14. It's there. You take and read. That means what? When you are not a peacemaker, you won't be holy. When you are not holy, you won't be seeing the presence of God. Then whose presence are you seeing? Presence of devil. Who else? Who else's presence you are going to see? Right The devil the demons are comfortably ruling in you That why you are not able to be at peace with anyone How can he say like that 20 years ago the guy would have said a single something against you You will be still angry Why your anger is not subsiding? It's because the demons are ruling in you and he is always after people to take revenge, avenge with them, bloodshed, murderer, destroyer, destructor. You have all these qualities. Then who are you? You are not the child of God, unfortunately. Please. Right? The gospel Gospel of peace. Gospel itself means it's all about peace. You're a peacemaker. The words of your mouth will be bringing peace. And it will not bring any, some people know, 10 people will be comfortably sitting and talking. This one guy enters or one sister enters now. Immediately, you know, after five minutes, people will be fighting against each other. What spirit that sister carries? What spirit that brother carries? The spirit of demons. If you are a brother in Christ, if 10 people are sitting and fighting, when you enter inside that room, all the 10 people will be at peace with each other. You will be a peacemaker. Yes. Okay. Now, next one. The third prescription over. Fourth one. Above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. When you are put to temptation, when trouble crosses your path, when troublemakers surround your feet, when all sorts of unexpected, unprecedented events takes place in your life, tragic loss and all that, hold fast in faith. faith is the only weapon using which you will be able to motivate yourself encourage yourself you will have that confidence your confidence will never be shaken you will not be like that brother who is like that wind being tossed in the air roaring waves no back and forth back and forth back and forth not at all stable in mind right but you will not be that brother or sister you take that faith if I have to talk about faith I think I need another one hour let's get into the last prescription the last weapon you know what is that no there are two more weapons right and the fifth weapon and the helmet of salvation helmet of salvation has all the soldiers all the workers all the army people they will have helmet why because if the bullet is fired on the head or the forehead he has to just bend down little bit and the bullet will come and hit on some side of the helmet and cricketers also they will have helmet and why it is to protect your head because inside the skull brain is there. If the brain loses its function, finished. Likewise, the helmet of salvation is walking in conscience. Keep checking whether the Holy Spirit is still inside of you or the demons are living inside of you. Keep checking. That's called as introspection. Every Christian believer in Christ will have to introspect who is ruling inside of you. By whose doctrines are you making this decision? Are you abiding in the laws and commandments of God? Are you adhering to the teachings of Jesus? or not will help you really to come to God and make the right decisions and that's called as element of salvation means walking in conscience right that is the one which will safeguard your brain your mind from injury right in the previous session I spoke about the sensory organs the ears eyes and the mouth right all three sensory organs please you know you may want to listen to those sessions too and the last one six the subscription of the prescription is and sword of the spirit which is the word of God praying always with all prayer and supplication in the spirit being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints right this word of the spirit means it is like slaying the head of the enemy how are you able to slay the head with the anointing of the Holy Ghost with the gifts of the Holy Ghost one Corinthians chapter 12 verses 1 to 11 and 1 Corinthians 12 28 various gifts are being given in that the most prominent the chief of all these gifts the primary gifts are nothing but the spirit of wisdom spirit of knowledge and the spirit of discernment without these three any other gift cannot sustain on its own so you need to pray God asking for these three gifts and with which you will be able to slay the head of your enemy that is the devil your fight is not with the blood and flesh your fight is not with your brother not with your neighbor not with your sister not with your wife not with your husband not with your children not with your father-in-law mother-in-law father mother anyone no human beings are your enemies yeah but who is operating is what you need to look for and there are the six weapons and this is the medicine for your for the healing of your spiritual sickness are you a brother who is hyper tensed short-tempered and full of emotional outbursts worries and fearful horrifying this and that panicking the medicine is are the six prescriptions are you that brother who don't know how to fight these are your six weapons it can be either treated as weapons or medicines God bless you take care and stay healthy stay long stay stay safe and please follow all the pandemic rules don't get caught in the coronavirus it's really dangerous at the same time always live in prayer and pray for me pray for our ministries God bless you I'll meet you soon thank you bye
