THE WARFARE OF A SOUL WINNER
Make no mistake about the fact that serious disciple with sincere conversion experiences coupled with soul winning venture has made open declaration of war with SATAN and his agents.
Before we turned about in repentance towards Jesus Christ, the devil exercised, at least indirectly, considerable influence in our lives. In such previous condition, we were part of the dominion of him whom Scripture calls “the god of this world” (2 Cor. 4:4)
Apostle Paul knew his spiritual son also had such need, he included in his letter to Timothy, “Fight the good fight of faith; lay hold on eternal life whereunto thou art called” (1 Tim. 6:12).
The Christian life is indeed a warfare. Paul wrote in Ephesians 6:12 that “we wrestle” against the powers of darkness.
Eph. 6, that there is a warfare throughout the course of Christian discipleship in which every believer who receives the crown of life will have overcome – Rev. 2:10
The beauty of the warfare we do is premised of victory before the actual battle Rom. 8:35-39… 37 “Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us”. AND the fact that our warfare is not carnal BUT simple faith in GOD. 2 Cor. 10:3-4… “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds.
