2 Corinthians 10:4

God’s Promise – “I will give you My power to destroy spiritual strongholds.”

The Bible describes a spiritual stronghold as a wrong belief which is strongly defended or upheld. Slowly formed over time by the lies of the Enemy, strongholds are used to keep us in bondage and under Satan’s thumb. “Spiritual strongholds begin with a thought. One thought becomes a consideration. A consideration develops into an attitude, which leads then to action. Action repeated becomes a habit, and a habit establishes a power base for the Enemy….(Elizabeth Elliot) But as children of the Most High, we can break down even the strongest fortress of the Enemy. And no wrong thinking or sinful barrier stands a chance. For we have the full armor of God at our disposal. (Eph. 6:14-17) And when we are covered head to toe in our Christian uniform, there isn’t a stronghold that can withstand the full might and power of Almighty God!

2 Corinthians 10:4

1 Peter 5:8 tells us the Enemy prowls the earth like a lion looking for someone to devour. That’s why it’s so important we use every weapon available to us for protection. Divinely powerful weapons intended to tear down the strongholds of Satan. And one such weapon is prayer. The Enemy will do anything he can to keep us from praying. Because prayer limits his power, disrupts his plans, and stop him in his tracks. Prayer is a powerful force. For as our communication with God, the prayers of His children move God to act. Satan cannot touch or do what God does not allow. Which is why he delights in the absence of a prayer life. And also why the Enemy uses every trick in the book to distract, defeat, and discourage us from praying.
