Spiritual Warfare
Recently I received an article in which a minister wrote that the Lord showed him in a dream about the warfare that active Christians get involved in. He mentioned that the invisible powers he perceived could be grouped in two kinds of orders:
1. The more seroius ones:
Dominion,
Poverty,
Divorce,
Suicide,
Greed,
2. The less seroius ones, as compared with group 1:
Hatred,
Gossip,
Perfectionism,
Pride,
Solitude,
Bitterness,
Idolatry,
Self-gratification,
Jealousy,
Low self-image,
Foolish talk.
These demonic powers come in rows and Christians have to find refuge under the protection of the Lord. Even though the warfare is intense, the Lord does provide reprieves.
