1. SPIRITUAL WARFARE:
PUTTING ON
THE ARMOR

(Genesis 3) there has been, and is present
today, a raging and fierce battle between
Good (GOD) and Evil (Satan)!
THIS IS SPIRITUAL
WARFARE!

3. The ENEMY (Satan) is spiritual!
Ephesians 6:12
For our struggle (warfare) is not
against flesh and blood (Mankind),
but against the rulers, against the
rulers
powers, against the world forces of
powers
this darkness, against the spiritual
darkness
forces of wickedness in the
heavenly places.
The WARFARE (Demonic) is spiritual!

4. The Demonic spiritual forces of wickedness are
organized LIKE AN ARMY:
“Rulers”-- Demonic generals who have oversight of the
nations.
“Powers”-- Demonic privates who possess human beings.
“Forces of the darkness of this world”-- Demons who have charge
of Satan’s worldly system.
“spiritual forces in high places”-- Demons in charge of religion.
Satan’s organization (ARMY) is
manipulating and causing great
problems and tragedies of life in this
world right now!

5. THE ENEMY (SATAN) IS A DECEIVER:
2nd Corinthians 11:14 & 15
And no wonder, for even Satan
disguises himself as an angel of
light.

servants also disguise themselves
as servants of righteousness;
whose end shall be according to
their deeds.
