Reverend David Obiosa: Christian Warfare Is Not Against Flesh And Blood by Honbright(m): 7:04am On Oct 20, 2019 |
The Bishop of Ndokwa Diocese, Church of Nigeria (Anglican communion), Right Reverend David Obiosa, has said the secret to winning any Christian battle is relying on God, putting faith in Him and facing the battle squarely under His instructions. The Bishop made this known at the September edition of the monthly Power Night of the Abuja Anglican Diocese, held at the Cathedral Church of the Advent, Life Camp, Abuja, VAM gathered. Speaking on the theme, “The Battle is the Lord’s,” Obiosa pointed out that the Christian life in itself is an introduction to battle, because even at baptism, one is said to be enlisted into the army of Christ. He stressed that the Christian warfare is not a fight of the flesh, but one that is fought spiritually and can only be won with spiritual weapons. Narrating the story in the Bible about the shepherd boy, David and Goliath, the giant Philistine, the bishop observed that life is filled with challenging situations such as that which David and the Israelites were faced with. He said Christians are facing all kinds of warfare today, including persecution for their faith. The cleric opined that just like David, believers must realise that the warfare is not a physical battle and it is only God who can grant them victory. https://www.voiceairmedia.com/2019/10/christian-warfare-is-not-against-flesh.html 4 Likes

My confusion about this is profounded. ![]() Question begging for an answer ![]() BATTLE! BATTLE! BATTLE! Was the purpose of man existence for battle? Did we negotiate with anyone before we came to this world? Is it by force for man to exist if our survival depends on an invincible wars? Why are we subject to fight that we did not create? Staying awake all night to pray, staying hungry for days to pray, what is meaning of the word that God told man from the beginning of time that read... I HAVE GIVEN YOU EVERY GOOD THINGS TO ENJOY... nawao... This battle sometimes dey confused me o 6 Likes |

Indeed the carnal man cannot appreciate or understand spiritual things. A lot of people reading this will not understand the reality of of spiritual warfare Christians face everyday especially at midnight. As for those of you who understand; your victory is in God's WORD. 1 Like |

Kennitrust: It wasn't so from the onset... Adam commited treason...you know what treason means right? So Satan took over..and man was in bondage or battles.. Jesus came to recaliam Adams right on behalf of humanity....( That's why he's called the second Adam) The won the battle .... So Satan is a defeated foe but he's not going down without a fight..hence all the trouble in the world... It's not about fasting for days...many Christians are ignorant... It's about HAVING BY FAITH what God says is ours and it will be so....your prayers isn't what brings answers..God has blessed humanity ALREADY..with all spiritual blessings....( Like he told Abraham..I have made you a father of many nations) Not I will make you.. It's your faith that draws your answer to you...it's like a law..God is impersonal..ie to say if you believe it, it will be yours eg the woman with the issue of blood... Jesus said daughter THY FAITH as made the whole Shalom |

cescky: And what makes you think the Bible(Jews) creation story is legit and true, haven't you noticed that almost all the tribes of the world has their own creation story? It's so funny and amusing how African are clinging to other people's myths and legends wen they have their's to cherish and behold. I bet u don't believe that life started in ile-ife or at Nri, but you'll surely stick ur neck out to support that life started in the garden of Eden... Wot an irony. Africans wake up, y'all been sleeping for too long!!! 1 Like 1 Share |
