Rhapsody Of Realities 27 June 2026 By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Christ Embassy): The Reality Of Spiritual Warfare

TOPIC: The Reality Of Spiritual Warfare (Rhapsody of Realities 27 June 2026)

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places – Ephesians 6:12

Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:

Sequel to our previous study, notice that our opening scripture doesn’t stop at “For we wrestle not”; rather, it goes on to tell us who we’re up against. This means whether or not you realize it, there’s a warfare. Life is spiritual, and we’re engaged in a spiritual warfare.

But the beautiful thing is that in this warfare, you’re not a victim but the victor. 1 John 4:4 says, “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.” The adversaries we deal with today are not new or different from those that existed in Bible days.

The same demonic forces that opposed God’s people in the days of Moses, the prophets, and the apostles are still operating in the world today. These spirits have not reproduced or evolved into a new generation. Their methods and operations have remained essentially the same.

If you want to understand the structure, activities, and strategies of satanic forces, the most reliable source of information is the Bible. The Scriptures provide the clearest insight into spiritual realities. When you study the Bible carefully, you discover that there were extensive spiritual activities even in the Old Testament, although the people often didn’t realize what was happening around them.

For example, when the children of Israel journeyed through the wilderness and later stood before the Red Sea with the Egyptian army behind them, there were angelic forces actively involved in their deliverance. Yet the people themselves didn’t realize the extent of those spiritual operations until later revelations in the Scriptures unveiled what had taken place.

This shows that spiritual activities can occur without human notice or observation. Without the knowledge of the Word, you could remain unaware of the spiritual realities around you. That’s why you must give yourself to the study of the Scriptures. Through the Word of God, your understanding is enlightened and your spiritual perception sharpened. Therefore, study and meditate on the Word regularly to gain insight into spiritual matters and walk in wisdom, discernment and victory.

PRAYER

Dear Father, thank you for the light of your Word that enlightens my understanding and gives me insight into spiritual realities. As I study and meditate on the Scriptures, my mind is illuminated and I walk in wisdom, discernment and victory over every work of darkness. Your Word guides my life continually and keeps me established in truth, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

2 Kings 6:15-16 (KJV) And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with horses and chariots.

Judges 5:19-20 (NIV) “Kings came, they fought, the kings of Canaan fought. At Taanach, by the waters of Megiddo, they took no plunder of silver. [20] From the heavens the stars fought, from their courses they fought against Sisera.

1 Samuel 7:10-12 (KJV) 10 And as Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel: but the Lord thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines, and discomfited them; and they were smitten before Israel. 11 And the men of Israel went out of Mizpeh, and pursued the Philistines, and smote them, until they came under Bethcar. 12 Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpeh and Shen, and called the name of it Ebenezer, saying, Hitherto hath the Lord helped us.
