Spiritual Warfare

Eph 6:10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.

The beginnings of battle with the unseen spiritual world starts with being strong in the LORD in his strength and might ( other versions use power) the word power in the Greek is were we get the word for DYNAMITE .We have the power of the Holy Spirit via the Holy Spirit to battle Satan and his Demons in the unseen world. As long as we are relying on the LORD and not on our own knowledge.

Eph 6:11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil

Put on the Armor of God this is a constant multiple effort ,whether we want to admit it or not we as Christians are in a spiritual battle. The schemes of the Devil is to drive us away from God to fill us with half truths to and untruths to lure us into false religions and false doctrine ,false teaching ,into false hope ,false joy ,to lead us AWAY !!!! From the one true GOD

The word schemes is come from the Greek word for strategies , that means our temptations are not random, the false perspectives aren't haphazard , the lies we hear the cravings that consume us at our weakest point , they are all an assault to hit us below the belt to make us inefficient for Christ.
