Who is your real enemy?

**Joyce Meyer


Are you facing challenging circumstances? Are you in need of provision in some area and not sure where it is going to come from? Many Christians today are dealing with serious hardships. Some have lost their jobs and benefits. Others struggle with critical problems and live with constant concern about how to cover the cost of medicine and doctor visits in addition to simple necessities such as shelter, food and clothing. 


There are many things in the world that threaten us. But our biggest enemy, fear, is not "out there."


Ephesians 6:12 reminds us that we are at war not with flesh and blood, but with the enemy of our souls. We must not be confused about the identity of the enemy in our battles.


Thankfully, our unseen God is more than capable of dealing with out unseen enemy. When we come to a deep understanding of God's unconditional love for us, we realize He will always take care of everything that concerns us.


You do not have to be afraid of your unseen enemy. Trust in God, the only One who can defeat the spiritual forces of darkness.


Prayer starter: Lord, do not let me forget who my real enemy is, and do not let me forget that You are all-powerful. I know I cannot handle everything the enemy throws my way, but You can.




Ephesians 6:12
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
