Breaking Spiritual Strongholds
Adapted from Starting Your Day Right
For the weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood], but they are mighty before God for the overthrow and destruction of strongholds...and we lead every thought and purpose away captive into the obedience of Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).
The Bible teaches that Satan tries to build strongholds in our lives. One way to identify the strongholds in your life is to watch for repetitive situations that pull you down in spirit.
We all know inside when something is not right in our life or is getting out of control. If that happens to you, seek God early to find out what is going on. If a negative behavior becomes repetitive, that is a signal that Satan is building himself a stronghold in your life. God will destroy the devil’s strongholds within you, if you draw near to Him.
Prayer of the Day: Lord, please reveal any strongholds in my life and give me the strength to break free from every one of them. I choose to draw near to You and walk in lasting spiritual freedom, amen.
