You know what they say, “everything is not as it seems”. And just because you don’t see something, doesn’t mean it does not exist.
We are all at war in this world. And I’m not talking about the physical war that military men are fighting in to protect us all.
I’m talking about spiritual battles. Battles we can’t see. But just because we can’t see them doesn’t mean they aren’t there.
And they manifest in our lives in various ways. Like obstacles and disappointments that keep happening in your life with no tangible cause.
Sometimes, things just seem to go wrong with no cause and explanation and it looks like all at once, everything is headed downhill and it’s all a series of bad news and disappointments.
These are mostly a result of spiritual battles that we are not even aware of. That is why the word of God tells us to be alert and sober-minded so that we don’t fall victim to the devil’s ploy.
The word of God is our weapon in this battle. So it is important that you pray the word of God over your life and that of your family’s.
Fight the good fight with the word of God. Read it, meditate on it and memorize it.
Below are some bible verses about spiritual warfare you can pray over your life.

Psalm 91 spiritual warfare prayer verse
Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”
Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings, you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday.
A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you. You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked.
If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling, no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent.
For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. You will tread on the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent.
Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call on me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him.
With long life, I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.”
