Living Changed: Overcoming Spiritual Warfare

DAY 5 OF 6

Warfare in Peaceful Times

If you aren't coming out of a season of spiritual warfare, you are likely going into one. What you do during peaceful times will drastically affect how you battle. Study scripture, stay prayerful, and find community that points you to God's word when you're having trouble hearing His voice. Don't wait until you need it to prepare for it.

"Let us not become weary in doing good" (Galatians 6:9). Continue to draw close to God in times of war and peace. Lean into a continued intimacy with God, a continued passion for being in His word, and continue to learn and share the Word of God with others.

Don't let the bitterness from battle steal the peace God has for you and the joy in your journey.

In times of peace, you get to spend uninterrupted time with Jesus. You can sit with and love Him for who He is, not just what He can do for you. Once you fully turn off the demands of this world, you can deepen your intimacy and grow in your relationship with Him. As you spend time with Him without expectations, you can begin to change your expectations of Him. When you can depend on God during times of peace, it reminds you of exactly who He is during times of warfare.

Jesus promises that if you are in this world, you will have trouble, but we can take heart in the knowledge that Jesus came to overcome the world (John 16:33). If you prepare in seasons of peace, you will be battle-ready when the war comes.

God warns us that tomorrow isn't guaranteed (James 4:14), so remind yourself daily to put on the whole armor of Christ (Ephesians 6:11-13), whether in battle or not. When you stay in a continued state of readiness, entirely dependent on Him, you're prepared, no matter what.
