Spiritual Warfare 1. This is history, not fantasy Jehoshaphat was king of Judah C. 871 – 849BC King David was his great, great, great grandfather

Spiritual Warfare

Spiritual warfare 2. This is applicable to us today

Spiritual warfare 3. The Christian life is not just like a war … … it is a war!

Spiritual warfare 4. Prayer and fasting is a great place to start

Spiritual warfare 5. We should pray … … and we should also wait on God for Him to answer (Jehoshaphat’s prayer is a lot like the Lord’s Prayer!)

Spiritual warfare 6. God speaks encouragement and direction to His people through prophecy

Spiritual warfare 7. We need to humbly honour both God and God given authority

Spiritual warfare 8. We need to step out in obedient faith

Spiritual warfare 9. Worship and spiritual breakthrough are linked

Spiritual warfare 10. God works all things together for our good

Spiritual warfare 11. We should remember to thank God for what He’s done

Spiritual warfare 12. One day we will rest from our battles and enjoy God’s peace

Spiritual Warfare As a church, and as individuals, we should remember that … We are in a lifelong spiritual war God knows our situation and He knows the enemy’s plans They are all ultimately God’s battles We can pray, fast and seek God’s will We need to obey Him in faith God will strengthen us and even fight for us Our ultimate victory is guaranteed

Spiritual Warfare A final encouragement: We have all we need to prevail in spiritual warfare Ephesians 6:10-18 Jesus fought for us and He has already won the war through His life, His death and His resurrection!
