Warring
Hi guys, good day and happy weekend. Today my verse pick is from:
2 Corinthians 10:3-5 Amplified Bible (AMP)
For though we walk in the flesh [as mortal men], we are not carrying on our [spiritual] warfare according to the flesh and using the weapons of man. The weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood]. Our weapons are divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses.
We are destroying sophisticated arguments and every exalted and proud thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought and purpose captive to the obedience of Christ,
Shebi we know this verse well, the Bible simply says we are normal guys walking around with abnormal nuclear weapons because our war isn’t that of talking and complaining but note the word divinely (from God) it is for destroying fortresses (kingdoms). Kingdoms that aren’t God’s Kingdom are broken down. The Message Version says the weapons of our trade aren’t for marketing and manipulation but to massively demolish an entirely corrupt culture, a culture that all we’ve been doing is complain about.
Our weapons are just there lying around, getting rusty, we do more talking and less warring. Jesus warred everytime, even when it sounded to us like a thanksgiving He was actually warring (Father, thank You for always hearing me was His way of warring to get bread multiplied).
We ARE, how many of us can really boasting of destroying sophisticated arguments (don’t argue with them), listen to their argument, drop your own words and leave, do the rest in the war room, ensure those words sink into their subconscious by warring and not arguing. Destroy anything that exalts itself higher than God.
Our objective as believers is to take over every thought and purpose captive to the obedience of Christ.
