Trusting God In 2Cor 10 (Oct 6)

God Provides Spiritual Weapons

Paul defended his ministry by
showing how individuals can be
reconciled to a loving God. And
he pleads with the Corinthian
church to be reconciled to him
as their spiritual father. In his
final words, Paul draws upon
his authority as an apostle to exhort
the rebellious to repent so that
his approaching visit can be a time
of rejoicing rather than rebuke.

Lord, we’ll use Yr mighty weapons:
We are humans but we don’t wage
 war with human plans & methods.
We use God’s mighty weapons,
not mere worldly weapons to
knock down the Devil’s strongholds.
 With these weapons we break
down every proud argument that
keeps people from knowing God.
With these weapons we conquer 
their rebellious ideas & teach them
to obey Christ (2Cor 10:3-6) Amen.

Lord, thanks for providing resources
including Word of God and Prayer
which are “God’s mighty weapons.”
And thank You that our arsenal are
more powerful than Satan’s & open
the way for God’s spirit to work.
 Help us use these spiritual weapons
 effectively as we trust in Your power. 
Remove the mountains in our lives &
 make the impossible possible. Amen

Lord, praise You for the power 
of Your Word. For it can penetrate
 hearts in ways no amount of
 human reasoning and philosophy
     can. Trust that Your Word will speak
 to the hearts of even the most
 atheistic people for You have 
promised that Your Word will
achieve its purpose of telling 
the world the truth. Amen.

Lord, Thank You for Your weapons
 of warfare, which are mighty and 
supernatural. Teach me to wield
 them as I stand against the enemy.
 Strengthen me even as I Intercede 
for others. Lord, I pray that You 
will demolish the devil’s dark
 strongholds and establish Your 
kingdom of truth and light. Amen.
