Resist Satan Dont Fight Him

Something came over my spirit last night and I wanted to share with everyone

While we are standing in the gap for our spouses we put on the armor of God for this battle. We get tired and just when we feel we have defeated Satan he attacks us in a different way. He uses our spouses, friend, clergy and family. They all mean well and are trying to help us.

We get distracted by the person and forget that we are battling Satan. We are not fighting the OW/OM, we are not fighting our spouse, and we are in a spiritual warfare. We are fighting Satan.

Often time we remember this, though sometimes we may forget, but we need to stop fighting Satan and ignore him. When Peter went to Jesus saying he should not go, Jesus said get thee behind me Satan. When Satan tempted Jesus in the desert he didn't engage him or fight him, he spoke the word. That is why Satan kept coming at him different ways. Jesus didn't engage him. He let God (the Word) do his fighting)

The more we engage Satan the better he learns us. Remember in battle a lot is learned from defeat. So every time we engage in battle with Satan we are showing more and more of our strategy, Satan is very strategic, he is a devouring lion and slinky snake he watches us and learns our weaknesses so that he know what will and won’t affect us.

When Satan show us we need to let Jesus answer the door, we need to resist him, we need to turn to God. Only God can defeat the enemy. James tells us to "Submit yourselves, then to God. Resist the Devil, and he will flee from you.†We need to resist the devil not play is games in engage in battle with him. Satan like any other spoiled child loves attention weather good or bad, so he will find ways to get it, to riffle our feathers to try to take away our calm, but like a spoiled child, he also cannot stand to be ignored. He will try even harder and harder but after we successfully ignore him he will flee. He is not getting the attention he needs to feed on.

The only way we can resist Satan is to not get into the battle at all. We need to stand guard for all his attacks and when he comes knocking we need to let Jesus answer the door. We need to be so full of the Holy Spirit it flows from us.

Not all of us can memorize book and chapter of the Bible but we need to know it intimately so that we can resist Satan. Just as Jesus did. We need to just have the word written in our hearts so that when Satan comes we have God's word to give us comfort.
Please memorize and read God's promises for us. Call on God for strength. He said He know the plans he has for us. Plans to prosper. He has told us his word does not go forth without accomplishing what it was sent to do. God didn't give us a Spirit of fear but a Spirit of love, power and a sound mind.

Let us stop giving Satan the pleasure of battling with us so we can say we defeated Satan, because we never can Only God can.

So the next time the OW/OM calls or texts or the next time you spouse is saying things that hurt resist the urge to do battle. Remember that is only Satan using them and let God answer the door with Love and forgiveness.
Have a beautiful day. I hope this helps. This was my message from God so I can stop fighting Satan but to resist him.
Amen
 
Thank you and I remember that the battle is not ours but Gods and that if we Maginfy our father and not the enemy that it is what we focus on .
 
Hi Alida123. I don't know what to say. this is the first time I am seeing you response. What I can say is that no one in the church or friend or family or anyone on this site can tell you what to do or how to love your husband. BUT GOD CAN> go to your closest (alter where ever you go to be alone with God. Get still and quiet and listen to and for his instructions.

The is a verse in Philemon that comes to mid. please ask God if that verse applies to you. spend some really quiet and alone time with the father he will tell you what you need to do.

each of our walks are different but to bring the same results, Glory to God so ask God how you are to do this. Also read 1 Peter 3. God has something great for you.
