2 Corinthians 10:4
For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal,
but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds.
Strongholds are birthed and dwell in deception (which are lies and false beliefs), so naturally the cure is to bring in the truth in God’s Word to defeat them once and for all. You debunk the lies of the enemy with the truth that lies in the Word of God.
The Bible says that our weapons are mighty for the tearing down of strongholds (2 Corinthians 10:4, “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds.”) What is our primary offensive weapon? The sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God (Ephesians 6:17, “…the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.”) Truth dispels deception and lies, and therefore the more truth you bring into a situation, the more the darkness must flee. This is where it’s important to grow in God’s Word, is because it is your primary weapon for tearing down the strongholds of deception that the enemy has been feeding you.
If you are not currently spending time in God’s Word every single day, please vow to make this a habit right now. THIS is how God will most often speak to you and how you will grow in your relationship with Him like never before. Please make this intentional time with the Lord every single day…ink {not pencil} Him into your precious schedule!
In John 8:31-36, Jesus tells us that we can be held in bondage due to strongholds in our lives. And His solution was to, “…continue in my word… and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free” (verses 31-32). Strongholds are torn down as we meditate on God’s Word.
