Introduction

This book is about the spiritual warfare I have encountered in my life. When God first raised me up as a minister and then a Pastor, I had a lot of zeal, faith, and fervor. I had no idea or thoughts about the hierarchy of Satan. I thought everyone in the church were people of God and loved God. I was totally ignorant of the devices of Satan.

Through the warfare I experienced from Satan, I went from being a person of zeal, faith, and fervor to despondency, fear, and hopelessness. At one point I believed I was cursed and a curse to other people because of the intensity of the warfare I was experiencing. I believe that all of the warfare I experienced, I know God allowed it so I would know first-hand the intentions of the principalities and powers in heavenly places, as mentioned in Eph 3:10.

The Purpose of Spiritual Warfare

It is not until we know and understand the course of action, process, purpose, and strategy Satan follows that we can combat and overthrow his devices. We must have the Wisdom of God to defeat the powers of darkness, as stated in Eph 3:10, to have the manifold or many-sided Wisdom of God. This book is to enlighten the body of Christ and teach them about the weapons of our warfare.

Because if we do not know how to properly use our weapons and understand what weapons Satan uses against us, we will always live a defeated life. We must understand that our weapons are mightier than Satan (II Cor. 10:4). But we must properly utilize the weapons of the Lord to disarm the weapons of Satan.

Prayers and Exposing the Enemy

Pray and ask God to show you how to walk in His wisdom, armor, and power by His Spirit to defeat the strategies and intentions of Satan. It is my purpose in the book to expose the weapons that God has revealed unto me of the enemy. How he came to destroy me, my church, and my home.

I have lived through these horrific attacks in these three areas of my life. In John 10:10, the thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I can truly attest to these facts that they came to do just that.

The Hope for the Body of Christ

Now the time for the body of Christ to see and understand that Christ came that we might have life, that we might have life more abundantly, and that's what we are going to have because of the knowledge that is going to be revealed through Christ to His people (Hosea 4:6). We will no longer be destroyed because of the knowledge that is being revealed to His sons and daughters of God.
