2 Corinthians 10:4-5 says, "The weapons of our warfare are not carnal (fleshly), but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ." Have you ever realized that we are in a spiritual war? Ephesians 6:11-12 says, that we are to "put on the whole armor of God that you maybe able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against rulers of darkness of this age, against spiritual host of wickedness in heavenly places." Ephesians 6:13-18,tells us to "take up the whole armor of God, that you maybe able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparatiopn of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the firey darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit." As christians we need to realize that God has given us mighty weapons of warfare, and He has also given us the whole armor of God.The mighty weapons that Jesus has given us are The Name of Jesus, The Blood of Jesus, and The Word of God.
