The Struggle is Real, But it’s Not Against Flesh and Blood

Most times when we have discourse with another person concerning their issues or unwanted drama, there’s a third party behind the scenes of their problems. That third party is the master spirits who are the rulers of this world’s system, they demonically influence this world’s way of doing things. The principalities and powers of the air are sent out by Satan himself to stir up trouble in our lives. Since we are dealing with unseen forces, we must learn to fight in the spirit realm. The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of those strong holds the enemy puts in place against us (2 Corinthians 10:4). Our supernatural weapons have divine power to demolish strongholds in our lives. The person who steps to us with heated words of offense, more than likely could be getting battered by those principalities and powers of the air. If we would not be reactionary to an obvious offense against us, but wait and hear them out to listen for a possible cry for help in their tone. The offense may not be against you personally but that person could be just in a lot of pain, and this is how they’re trying to get rid of it. The struggle is real, but it’s not against flesh and blood. Pick up your weapons, get familiar with them, and fight! Your weapons are found in (Ephesians 6:13-18).
