Spiritual Weapons

Summary: New birth is a spiritual thing and those that are born again are the true children of God. They no longer have the urge for things of this world. Vices like drinking, smoking, telling lies, womanizing, anger and the likes are no longer part of their lives
Another spiritual weapon is the fire of God. Hebrews 12:29: “For our God is a consuming fire.” What will God consume? He will consume the works of the devil. He is not interested in consuming pieces of paper, which cannot pose problem to anyone. He will simply ask them to disappear and become soil. Psalm 104:4: “Who maketh his angels spirits; His ministers a flaming fire.” God can turn you into a flaming fire so that when somebody touches you with the intention of doing you harm, the person will have a serious problem because he will be touching fire. If you get to an environment and begin to say fire of God come into this environment and somebody says, “No, I don’t want you to pray like that, pray in another way," such a person has a problem and should be suspected.
Some years ago when I was in London, a woman came to me and complained that her husband, children and house girl were demonic. I could discern that that was not her first husband. I asked her which of her husbands and she said her fourth husband. I counselled her to go home and pray that the fire of God should come upon her and also upon the walls of her house. She went home that night and prayed the prayer point. The next evening, she was with us again and said that none of her children slept well and that the force that was pressing her down on the bed continued. The next day she prayed the same prayer and the children refused to sleep. She brought the children and we began to pray for them, they were seriously demonic, including the baby among them. They were all from different fathers. Then I said, “When you get home put your hand on your head and command the fire of God to enter into your life.” I noticed that when she came to fellowship the next day her face was swollen. She seemed to have fallen down. I asked her what happened? She said, “Please, sir, give me another prayer point. I don’t want to pray this one again because when I prayed it, I fell down and hit my head on the chair. I said, “Ok, since you don’t want to pray it again we will pray it for you.” You see, when you challenge evil things with the fire of God, they just have to leave and if they do not want to leave, they will suffer. If you shout fire, they will try to endure it, pretending that they are not there, waiting for you to keep quiet but when you are the stubborn type and you refuse to keep quiet, they will be forced to jump out. You are going to use these weapons now and command fire into several areas of your life and I expect you to have results, in Jesus’ name.
