Spiritual battles are real. The presence of evil forces crafting evil plots for wicked attacks is increasing in these last days.
Many people are afraid of the unseen realm and the demons that plan evil against us. But God tells us over and over in His word not to fear. He is the greater one and He promises to protect us from the evil one.
The Word of God declares His supreme power over all evil, and He has delegated that power to us to exercise in the earth to send the enemy fleeing. God’s Word assures us that He is our shield and buckler. Like David, we have divine protection.
Psalm 46:1 proclaims, “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” This powerful verse reminds us that no matter what spiritual battles we are facing, God is always present and ready to help. He will give us strategies and tactics. He’ll layout a battle plan for us just like He did for David. God is not a distant observer but an ever-present protector, offering us refuge and strength.
In Psalm 91:11-12, it is written, “For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.” This passage beautifully illustrates how God commands His angels to protect us, shielding us from demonic attacks and lifting us up in times of spiritual warfare. The key to that protection is walking in the fear of the Lord.
Joshua 1:9 encourages us with these words: “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” This verse is a powerful affirmation that God is with us, guiding and protecting us, giving us strength and courage to face any evil force.
As we reflect on these scriptures, let us lift our hearts in prayer, seeking God’s divine protection against demonic forces and placing our trust in His almighty power.
