Spiritual warfare as defined in Scripture is the ages-old conflict between the kingdom of darkness and the kingdom of light. Paul says in Colossians 1:13 that God “has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love.”
The ruler of the powers of darkness, Satan, is none too happy about what God has accomplished in Christ. His main goal is to destroy the faith of Christians by getting them to doubt God’s goodness, love, forgiveness, protection, provision, and promises. When Satan creates difficult circumstances in our life, it is not just to inflict pain; it is for the purpose of destroying our trust in God.
We know from Scripture that Satan will not win the spiritual war, but every time he gets a Christian to give up on God, he wins a spiritual battle. The Bible begins (Genesis 3:1-5) and ends (Revelation 20:8) with Satan attempting to deceive humanity in order to make God look bad.
In this powerful interview Dr. Jeremiah discusses Satan’s strategies AND how to defeat his attacks and remain faithful to God in life’s most challenging moments.
While Satan has been given temporary freedom to oppose God in this world (1 John 5:19), Christ came to ultimately destroy his efforts (1 John 3:8). In the interim, God gives us promises and power by which we can win every spiritual battle (1 Corinthians 10:13).
