"How to Wisely Confront Powers of Darkness" When Men - People - Go to War

Welcome to this month's Global Prayer Storm Podcast! As we step into spring, a season when men go to war, I want to share with you how to wisely confront the powers of darkness. This message builds on February's theme of moving beyond renewal into authentic revival breakthrough.

Our foundation today is Revelation 5:6, which reveals the Lamb slain, standing with seven horns (complete power) and seven eyes (complete knowledge), representing the seven Spirits of God sent into all the earth. This passage, tied to Isaiah 11, highlights the Spirit of wisdom, understanding, counsel, might, knowledge, and the fear of the Lord—all essential in spiritual warfare.

Key Takeaways: Spiritual Warfare Requires Discernment – We must ask the Lord, Whose battle is this? When and how should it be fought? Some battles are ours, some belong to others, and some are won in intercession rather than direct confrontation.

Worship is Our Warfare – Before engaging the enemy, we must first exalt the Lord, inquire of Him, and receive divine strategy.

Removing the Enemy's Legal Rights – Many focus only on confessing sins but fail to displace the enemy. True breakthrough comes when we take our position in Christ and rebuke the powers of darkness in His name.

Kingdom Advancement Comes Through Five Keys: Abiding – Cultivating intimacy with God. Appropriation – Receiving divine authority. Action – Stepping out in faith. Anointing – Relying on the Holy Spirit's power. Advancement – Moving forward in victory.

There is no specific spiritual gift called "spiritual warfare" in the Bible because it is the birthright of every believer! You were born for this—to discern, intercede, and advance God's kingdom on earth.

Let's rise up, hear the Lord's voice, and move forward in triumph!
