Confused Intentions - The Spiritual Strategy of the Enemy

I believe at this moment in time, that the enemy has unleashed a spiritual attack on the Christian community, the body of Christ to try to keep it in a state of misdirection. 

The spiritual attack is designed to keep Christians off-balance and in the dark by never revealing the truth behind his actions.

This will take place with a two-pronged strategy 

1. Guide them far enough down the wrong path.

2. Envelop them in enough smoke.

That by the time they realize the enemy's intentions, it will be too late!

TWO-PRONGED STRATEGY

1. Guide Them Far Enough Down the Wrong Path

The first spiritual attack of the enemy, to make the Church and Christianity have no sense of what he is up to. This firstly takes the form of throwing them off the scent by dragging red herrings across the path. Creating a fog or a mist so you cannot see the path where you are going. Changing the signals at the crossroads with ambiguous signals, and setting up misleading objects of desire, All of these are there to stop you from distinguishing the genuine from the false, so you cannot see or know your real goal.

2. Envelop Them in Enough Smoke

The second spiritual attack is to hide his intentions behind the comfortable and familiar. If you can lead the Church and Christianity down a familiar path, they won’t become aware and catch on when they are being led into a trap. The trap is to distract people from the real purpose by creating a bland spiritual realm. A realm where we accept as true or valid what is false or invalid. This is a very skillful strategy to conceal his progress and hide his purpose. This is to create a smoke of nonchalance, where the deception is to win the victory before the war is declared.

CONFUSED INTENTIONS

The confused Intentions that the Enemy uses are based on the subtle suggestions that invade our minds and enchant our hearts. In 2019 the author John Eldredge said that the enemy had unleashed a spirit of hatred over the world, and this I believe is still active today. The rise in conflict both in words, opinions, physical actions and media, bears this out.  

Today, Sunday 22nd January 2023 we are entering into a time when the strategy is still based upon the lying question he asked in Eden, “Did God say?”. And it is imperative that as the body of Christ, we see the attacks that are coming against us, know that Christ was utterly and totally victorious at the cross and that Christ’s victory now lives in us. We are the sons and daughters of the living God and God lives by the Holy Spirit in us. Let us center our lives, minds, and hearts on Christ and reject the enchantment that is placed before us.
