I have my PhD in Spiritual warfare. This is not Christianity 101. This is for the warriors who have been in this for decades with the Lord. Your wounded-ness - the devil knows your Achilles heel. He is not going after your strengths He's going to where you've been hurt before, to reopen that wound to get you in a state of fear, anxiety, doubting God, anger - whatever it is - he only has a few tools in his toolbox that he uses over and over again, each one lousy! Recently, one Friday morning, all of these awful thoughts came at me. I knew they were not my own thoughts, that it was a spiritual attack. I was at work so I couldn't pray or speak the Word out loud. But in my heart I was praying, worshiping the Lord, knowing that the victory was coming. How did I know the victory was coming?

As children of God, born again by His Spirit, because His Spirit now lives in us, we possess God's authority. Does that mean that we have absolute authority? Obviously, not. However, we are to call upon God's authority to win over evil. Since God's authority is absolute - perfect and there is none higher - whenever we rebuke the enemy, Satan, invoking God's authority, the devil must flee. Why some (most?) Christians do not utilize this power is because they mistakenly look at themselves instead of God. Of course if we look at ourselves, we know (or should know!) that we are no match for the devil. Christians also look at their own sinfulness and think that that "lessens" their authority, or right to their God-given authority, over evil. No wonder the world is in such a mess!
