Spiritual Warfare Strategy Hidden in Ephesians

One day in my prayer time the Lord asked me to read the five verses in the book of Ephesians which talk about activity in the spirit realm and the heavenly places. He asked me to read them consecutively without the verses in between. I discovered they are connected and consecutive. Here they are:

“Blessed be the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ. Which He brought about in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places. And raised us up with Him and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus…in order that the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known through the Church to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly places. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.” (Ephesians, 1:3, 1:20, 2:6, 3:10 and 6:12; NASB)

Give Him 15 minutes in prayer:

  • Acknowledge God as the One that rules from the heavenly places.
  • Thank Him for the blessings He gives us through Christ, whom He raised from the dead.
  • See yourself positioned with Christ in the heavenly places.
  • Understand that rulers and authorities in the heavenly places see that you and the rest of the Ekklesia are seated there!
  • Comprehend that the enemy knows your authority from that heavenly vantage place and they are terrified that you will exercise the authority you have!

A prayer you can pray:

Father God, maker of the heavens and the One that rules from the heavenly places, I love You! You have given me all that I need through Christ, so that I may be together with You always. I get to rule with You daily from the vantage point of being seated with You in the heavenly realm. Oh, that I would not forget this place. May I see how upset the enemy is seeing the Church here. Keep teaching the Ekklesia how to war against our ancient foe from this place in the heavenly places with You. If we get this, we will be victorious over and over and over again! Hallelujah! Amen!

Today’s decree:

I am seated with Christ in the heavenly places and the enemy sees that from this place I will be victorious over Him!
