We Wrestle Not Against Flesh & Blood!
.
.
.
.
.
.
There has been a giant phenomenon over the last few decades in the form of political talk shows.
.
The airwaves are literally teeming with various talk shows.
And some of them stay with current politics, while others delve more into conspiracy theory politics.

“FOR WE WRESTLE NOT AGAINST FLESH AND BLOOD”
Ephesians 6:15
.
Now there is one common element on those talk shows: that most, or perhaps, all of the blame for this world’s troubles goes to humans!
.
Yes, it is either this congressman, or that president, or that evil financial baron, or that other dictator, or some secret-society, which is responsible for the wrongs in this world!
.
.

.
“Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm…”
Jeremiah 17:5
.
And these same radio and Internet shows try to offer a remedy that we might employ, to fight against, or prepare ourselves to combat these evils.
.
Buying gold, or building a stockade of guns and ammunition, or storing up food rations, or moving to a remote location, or building a bunker to hide out in.
Or encouraging friends and family to vote for this or that candidate.
.
But God says just the opposite…“Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm…” Jeremiah 17:5

“SPIRITUAL WICKEDNESS IN HIGH PLACES!”
.
Listen… “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood,
but against principalities, against powers,
against the rulers of the darkness of this world,
against spiritual wickedness in high places.”
Ephesians 6:12
.
So, here we see that God is steering us away from the idea that flesh & blood is what is causing our problems.
.
But then, God pinpoints where the true source of our problems come from:
but against principalities, against powers,
against the rulers of the darkness of this world,
against spiritual wickedness in high places.”
.
When Lucifer and his deceived fellow-angels were cast out of Heaven, they declared open war against Heaven which includes God’s people!

THE ONLY WAY TO DEFEAT SATAN!
.
Now as most people will concede, the Devil tries to erase himself out of existence, and
convince us that he doesn’t really exist!
.
And one great reason he works in the shadows, is so that we won’t employ the only true means of combating Satan and his legions…
.
Listen… “Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God,
that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day,
and having done all, to stand.”
Ephesians 6:13
.
No amount of voting for this or that elected official.
No storing up food or guns, or gold.
No underground bunker or faraway mountain-top retreat can possibly keep us safe!
.
.
.
.
.
MONO Y MONO!
.
So, let’s no longer buy in to all 
those so-called man-centered talk shows!
The one true way to defeat the enemy is found in the following passage…
.
Listen… “If My people,
which are called by My name,
shall humble themselves, and pray,
and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways;
then will I hear from Heaven,
and will forgive their sin,
and will heal their land.”
2nd Chronicles 7:14

TODAY’S FEATURED HEAVENLY SIGN
.
.
.
SIGN IN HEAVEN
.
Well, if you look up and lift up your head, you just might see a wonderful sign, which God spoke about in Revelation 12.
.
It is a constellation of a woman.
.
The ancients only saw it as a great bear.
.
It is commonly known as Ursa Major .
.
It is also known as the 7 Stars (aka, The Big Dipper), but with the addition of various other stars.
.
But with the eye of faith, it actually appears as the Revelation 12 Woman. You see, God has placed in the heavens, the symbol of His bride, the Church-Faithful.
.
Listen… “And there appeared a great wonder (sign) in heaven;
a woman…
And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle,
that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place…
from the face of the serpent.
Revelation 12:1, 2, 14.
