FAITH OVER FEAR | Episode 11: The Battle Is Now: Surviving the Fire of Spiritual Warfare

This episode is not polished—it’s unfiltered. Fresh off the pages of my life, I lead you through the intense spiritual battle I’ve walked over the past three weeks - especially the last 72 hours.

On June 1, I wrote my Substack post, “No More Gray: The Enemy Is Real and the Battle Is Now,” It was scheduled for posting on July 7 and so today it posted.

In this post I wrote about the moment you choose Jesus, you become a marked person. But I had no idea what was coming for me… until I found myself under relentless spiritual attack from friends, family, and community.

This past July 4th while encountering a crushing, physically, mentally and spiritually draining episode, I cried out in desperation: “God, take me home, or I will.” I felt like I was in Gethsemane: sweating, weeping, broken. I’ve pleaded the blood of Jesus over my home, bed, body, and mind… yet the attacks didn’t stop. The cloak of darkness still presses, trying to suffocate my peace and my purpose.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• • What spiritual warfare really looks like (and it’s never just “little things”)
  • Why the enemy uses people closest to you—those he knows how to hurt you through
  • The deadly danger of isolation and how fighting alone plays right into his hands
  • How to wage war—and how to win— using community, prayer, Scripture, and spiritual tools
    

• This is no fluff. This is the war zone. And friend, God is bigger than it all. You may feel targeted, but you are not alone. The battle may feel insurmountable—but the war has already been won through Christ. His victory is our victory.

  
  

  The Prayer of Salvation. Call Jesus into your life.

  Heavenly Father, I know that I am a sinner and need your forgiveness. I believe that Jesus Christ is your Son, that He died on the cross for my sins, and that He rose again. I turn away from my sins and invite Jesus to come into my heart and be my Lord and Savior. Thank you for your gift of salvation and eternal life. In Jesus' name, Amen.

  And if you prayed that prayer, you have been set free. Cleansed and forgiven for your sins. You have started a relationship with Jesus Christ.

  Some next steps for you would be to:

  • Find a church: Connect with a local Christian community for support and guidance.
  • Study the Bible: Begin learning more about Jesus through scripture.
  • Pray regularly: Communicate with God through prayer.
  • Live a life that reflects your faith: One day at a time…
