Uh... wrestling with our own sin nature and the lies of our culture or the lies of the enemy IN OUR MINDS is not the same as praying down principalities.

You are stepping into a huge pile of apostasy that you don’t want to go down...

seen many so called “Christians’ literally lose their minds over this false idea that it is up to us to ‘pray down principalties” over a city.

There is no such thing. We are not God. Jesus said He did not command Angels to rescue Him from arrest at Gethsamane because “My Kingdom is not of this world”. We are by our love and witness to take the world for Christ, not by stupid prayers against principalities.

It is a divorce of moral behavior of Christians for some fake idea of intercession.

I know very well of what I am writing here. Let me ask you, SkyPilot... why do you think Paul cited the word “wrestling”?

It is because Jacob “wrestled” with an Angel for his inheritance.

Jacob was only allowed to go into his promised land AFTER HE REPENTED.

That is Paul’s point. Spiritual warfare has to do with us killing our own sinful flesh. Not praying some loud mouthed stupid prayer about Satan.

Your reply seeps with contempt for this testimony. The spiritual realm is real and I, for one, believe in the Name of Jesus Christ Dr. Cho defeated this spirtual force (demon) and gained spirtual ground here.

If you don’t believe it fine thats your choice.

Oh please.

I see two things at work here.

1. You

2. Your ego
