The Battle

2 Chronicles 20:15
...For the battle is not yours, but God's.


Why are some seemingly in a constant battle with Satan? Why can't they receive all the cross affords them? They seem more focused on satan than on their relationship with Jesus. They are seeing satan's presence in everything instead of practicing the presence of Jesus in their lives.

Are they opening doors for Satan to send his demons through to bring temptation, deceive, and raise havoc in their lives? Each time we sin we are making a place for him to march through.

Sin is like a magnet to demonic activity. As we walk away from the presence of God in our lives the enemy is drawn to us. It is up to us to renounce these attacks and get into the right relationship the cross allows us to have.

If we are walking with Jesus, living in Christ, satan cannot come against us because He who is in us is stronger. We are not to be battling satan. In Christ, there is no battle, for the battle is His and not ours.
