6 Lies About Spiritual Warfare and How to Overcome Them

Hope Bolinger

Ephesians 6:10-18 (known as the armor of God passage) stands out because it easily identifies several of Satan’s tactics of spiritual warfare. As Christians, we understand a battle wages around us every day, invisible to the naked eye (Ephesians 6:12). But because this battle is often waged in the ‘unseen’ realm, we’re susceptible to believing lies we may be hearing. We may naturally drop our guard and become vulnerable to attack. Christians should take note that the majority of the elements in the armor of God are defensive instead of offensive, meaning the devil attacks more often than we think. So, what are some of most common lies the devil has created? Let’s look at six of them as they pertain to the world of spiritual warfare, by evaluating the purpose and power of each part of the armor of God to equip us against these six lies.
