Breaking Spiritual Strongholds Part 2

2 Corinthians 10:4
(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)

Spiritual warfare is more apparent these days. The Father has equipped everyone with the ability to fight against evil. If we don’t know that we have the equipment, will we be able to fight against evil? No, not effectively.

Many of us don’t know the power we have against the roaring lion that seeks whom he may devour.

If you don’t know what spiritual warfare is, then it can easily overtake you.

What is a strong hold? It is a binding influence. If your constantly doing everything against what is right? What is that in your life? A stumbling block.

Luke 10:17-20
And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name. And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

The 70 disciples operated in Jesus name. That Name is the authority in breaking down strongholds, and expelling evil forces.

In addition, the very life you live can determine if you’ll be successful in dealing with spiritual warfare. If you are living the life of a  true Child of God, set a part from mingling with the world, being in it but not of it, knowing the power that you have within you through the Holy Ghost, your very presence will make demons cower. However, if you are lukewarm in your walk with Messiah, you will be weak in spiritual warfare.
Mark 16:17
And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

Next week, we will go into how to break strongholds and keep them broken, with several steps to help us succeed.
