The Weapons of Christian Warfare

are not carnal. "For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds) 2 Corinthians 10:3, 4


1. Strength in The Lord
    Psalm 27:1 The Lord is my Light and my Salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the Strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

2. Perfect Peace
    Isaiah 26:3 You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed (Psalm 112:6-8) on You: because he trusts in You.

3. Faith
    Galatians 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, Who loved me, and gave Himself for me.

4. Endurance
    Matthew 14:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

5. Truth
   Psalm 91:4 He shall cover you with His feathers, and under His wings shall you trust: His Truth shall be your shield and your buckler (shield which wraps around you).

6. Righteousness of Christ
     Job 29:14 I put on Righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem. Romans 13:14 But you put on The Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts thereof. Romans 10:10 For with the heart man believes unto Righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

7. Salvation through Christ
     Acts 4:10-12 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by The Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by Him does this man stand here before you whole. This is The Stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become The Head of The Corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is no other Name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.   Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon The Name of The Lord shall be saved.


8. Sword of The Lord
     Ephesians 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and The Sword of The Spirit, which is The Word of God. Zechariah 4:6 ...Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit, saith The Lord of Hosts.

9. Prayer is 2 Weapons: Joy and
   Acts 20:24 But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of The Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the Grace of God.
Nehemiah 8:8-10 So they read in The Book of The Law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading. And Nehemiah, which is the Tirshatha, and Ezra the priest the scribe, and the Levites that taught the people, said unto all the people, This day is holy unto The Lord your God; mourn not, nor weep. For all the people wept, when they heard The Words of The Law. Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for The Joy of The Lord is your strength.
     

10. Continual Prayer
     Ephesians 6:18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication (pleading) in The Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints.   1 Thessalonians 5:17 Pray without ceasing.

11. Boldly Speaking The Word of God
     Ephesians 6:19, 20  (pray) for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known The Mystery of the gospel, For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

12. Praise
     Jeremiah 17:14 Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; Save me and I shall be saved: for You are my Praise.
2 Chronicles 20:20, 21 ... Believe in The Lord your God, so shall you be established; believe His prophets, so shall you prosper. And when he (Jehoshaphat) had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto The Lord, and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and to say, Praise The Lord; for His mercy endures for ever.
Psalm 34:1 I will bless The Lord at all times: His praise shall continually be in my mouth.
