Is spiritual warfare a reality?

Genesis 3:1The serpent was the shrewdest of all the wild animals the Lord God had made. One day he asked the woman, “Did God really say you must not eat the fruit from any of the trees in the garden?”

Matthew 4:1Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted there by the devil.

Ephesians 6:12For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.

From the beginning of time and from the beginning of Jesus’ own ministry, the Bible clearly teaches that human beings are involved in a spiritual battle. Far from excluding you from spiritual battles, faith puts you right in the middle of them. Those who fail to realize and plan for this put themselves in jeopardy.
