Foundations of Spiritual Warfare pt 3

God has given us authority, but authority without understanding can lead us in the wrong direction. That’s why knowing God’s Word is so important. We can’t effectively represent God if we don’t take the time to know Him and understand what He says.

God has also called us to make a difference wherever He has placed us. We don’t have to wait for the perfect opportunity to serve Him. Our workplace, family, friendships, and everyday conversations can become opportunities to show people who Jesus is.

There will also be times when we don’t understand what God is doing. We may pray for one outcome and experience something completely different. In those moments, we have to remember that God is not only powerful—He is wise. We may not see the whole picture, but He does.

Knowing God also changes how we treat people. Instead of seeking revenge against those who hurt us, we can choose mercy, forgiveness, and love. God has shown us that even when humanity falls short, His desire is redemption.

The world will offer many ideas about who God is and what is true. That’s why we need to stay grounded in Scripture. The more we know God’s truth, the better equipped we are to recognize what doesn’t belong in our faith.
