Spiritual WarfareI. Introduction (Eph 6:12)Discerning Spiritual AttacksDaniel 10:2-13,19A. Satan and his devils are very powerful - no doubt1. Satan was Lucifer at first (Isaiah 14:12; Cf 2Pet 1:19; Rev 22:16)2. He became proud and rebellious3. Was kicked out of heaven4. Retained at a source of temptation for mankind5. The angels that fell are in chains in darkness right now (Jude 1:6)6. Demons are created copies of Satan, made by Satan – called devilsB. The unsaved are completely at his beckon call - like puppets (2Tim 2:24-26)C. Christians have a measure of protection (Luke 22:31,32)D. But the Christian must have ways to defeat our enemy when he attacksE. Daniel shows us that there are some ways of dealing with spiritual attacksII. Study LessonA. Daniel’s Secrets to Battling the Enemy (Daniel 10:2-13,19)Discerning Spiritual Attacks1. Even though he had few good friends, and no church, and was a slave in a far away country,Daniel kept his relationship with God as priority – always prayed, and was always studying hisOld Testament Bible2. Daniel was in a spiritual battle this day – struggling over a problem he found in the Scripturesa. The Book of Jeremiah had declared that Israel would have to be in ruins for 70 yearsb. But Daniel was trying to figure when that 70 years began, and when it would endc. He wanted to go home, and waited on God to show him when he could go homed. But the more he studied, the more confused he got, and so he began to pray, and then thepraying turned to fastinge. He went three full weeks without eating, because he was so desperate to know the mind ofGod and the will of Godf. It was during these twenty one days that Daniel learned some great truths about SpiritualWarfareB. Physical Battles are reflections of Spiritual Battles1. Right relationship with God makes for right relationships with people (Pr 16:7)2. Sin in your life affects your health (Ps 32:1-5)3. Sin in your life can affect people around you (Josh 7:1-12)4. Your relationship with others can affect your relationship with God (1Pet 3:7; Pr 17:5)5. God uses physical experiences to teach us about spiritual events (Jn 3:9-12)C. Spiritual Battles Affect Us – They Cause Spiritual Oppression1. Spiritual attacks affect everyone - no one is immune to its ‘wake’ or spillage into the physicalworld (Matt 16:23; Luke 9:55)2. Thankfully, no spiritual attack can affect your destiny. NOTHING can change your course - sodon’t be deceived!a. If unsaved, the battle is only to keep you from getting savedb. If saved, then the battle is intended by Satan to do three things:1) Ruin your trip to heaven – keep you miserable like Israel was in the wilderness2) Make you so you bring no one with you3) Make you stronger4) Make you stand for the Lord by your own determinationPage 3
