How to handle spiritual warfare

Ps 75 Words and Songs of Praise

The news today is the assassination of a prominent Hamas leader in Iran and now the call has gone out to slay Israel. This is not new for in the past the enemies of Israel have sought to destroy her. The warning is clear; the enemies of Israel hate her and Satan is angry and seeks her destruction but listen to the words of the psalmist as he prays: “Do not be proud,” and to the wicked, “Do not be so confident of victory,  Do not be so certain you have won. Do not speak with your head held so high. For victory does not come from the east or west, or from the wilderness. For God is the judge. He brings one down and exalts another.” [Ps 75:4-8]

Today we face the onslaught of  Satan who hates all who call upon the God of the universe. We, who are the beloved, are hated and the wicked seek our destruction and it comes with words and actions. So how do we prepare for these war mongering words and actions? We do as the psalmist did: “As for me, I will continually tell what you have done; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.” [Ps 75:9]

What words are you telling others about the God we serve? What song of praise are you singing today?
