Let’s Wrestle

By: Ken Malone

Ephesians 6:10-13 NKJV, Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Ephesians 6:10-13 TPT, Now my beloved ones, I have saved these most important truths for last: Be supernaturally infused with strength through your life-union with the Lord Jesus. Stand victorious with the force of his explosive power flowing in and through you. 11 Put on God’s complete set of armor provided for us, so that you will be protected as you fight against the evil strategies of the accuser! 12 Your hand-to-hand combat is not with human beings, but with the highest principalities and authorities operating in rebellion under the heavenly realms. For they are a powerful class of demon-gods and evil spirits that hold this dark world in bondage. 13 Because of this, you must wear all the armor that God provides so you’re protected as you confront the slanderer, for you are destined for all things and will rise victorious.

“Recently, I had a profound realization about the battle between the physical and spiritual realms. On April 6, 2024, I was in Marathon, FL, spearheading a prayer strike to banish the spirit of Pan. Despite facing significant resistance from some pastors and intercessors, we persisted in our mission. And while most refused to offer their support, one courageous pastor came forward and joined our cause, admitting that he had initially considered not helping. It was a challenging experience, but one that ultimately reinforced my unwavering faith and determination.” We feel strongly that the spirit of Pan was displaced in Florida and the nation.

I mused over how much we wrestle with one another and not with the enemy.

We wrestle over:

  1. Which translation of the bible is correct?
  2. Doctrine
  3. Personality
  4. Church against Church
  5. Pastor opposing Pastors, Apostle against apostle, prophet against prophet.
  6. Some preachers who oppose revival.
  7. Intercessor against Intercessor
  8. Conflict between brothers and sisters
  9. Many who oppose Genesis 1:26-28 mandate of taking dominion.
  10. These are just a few of the many things the enemy uses to separate us.

Rev. 12:11 TPT, They conquered him (the dragon) completely through the blood of the Lamb and the powerful word of his testimony. They triumphed because they did not love and cling to their own lives, even when faced with death.
