Assignment 3: Part One

I found a couple of websites that had very specific views and standpoints regarding Spiritual Warfare, among these:

http://www.allaboutfollowingjesus.org/spiritual-warfare.htm
This website speaks of the reality of spiritual warfare, and that we as Christians MUST be prepared to fight and part-take in this ongoing battle. It states specific examples of people in the bible that with the help of God, were able miraculously overcome impressive, and rather impossible feats or challenges. Some examples it gives are: "King Jehoshaphat sent out praise singers in front of his soldiers to cause disarray among the enemy; Joshua used singing and trumpets to bring down the great city of Jericho; and what better example of using faith in battle than David fighting Goliath with a slingshot. "

My thoughts about this website are that, yes spiritual warfare consists of the supernatural power given to us by God in certain situations requiring physical help (like the above situations state)....but I do believe that most of all spiritual warfare is more on the psychological, spiritual, and emotional planes of life. What do I mean? well spiritual warfare deals with Godʻs fight over each and every one of our lives. The spiritual battle we fight on a day-to-day basis involves our relationship with God, and how many times we are hindered by the devil (Satan) to continue in a relationship with Him. This is why it is vital that we are prepared and suited in the spiritual armor in order be able to fight in this battle whose only goal is to give ownership of our lives to one side of the spiritual extremes.
