We do not war after the flesh
"For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds) (2 Corinthians 10:3-4 KJV). "
We, as believers, must disturb the devil and demonstrate the power and authority we have in Jesus Christ. Like many in the church today, Sampson lost his sight when he lost sight of God. When he took his heart off God, he could not see anymore, spiritually. Samson's blindness was physical, but with you and I it is a spiritual thing. The enemy is out to take our sight. He will use the attractions of this world to grab our eyes. When the child of God begins to wean themselves away from God's presence, the first thing to be noticed is their blindness. When one begins to see things that once were wrong in their lives as no longer wrong, that person is blinded. Their sight has grown dim. We need a rebirth of spiritual desire in the church today.
Some of us were excited for God and the new life we can have in Him, but now many look to the world for their excitement. They learn how to be religious and are like zombies. They can no longer see the affect of sin. Their worship is mechanical. Many don't know that they are dead. Samson compromised with the enemy. It cost him his eyes. It will cost everyone who plays with the enemy their eyes also. To the blind, the world is no longer the enemy, but it becomes a misunderstood friend. Those who have been blinded have lost their appetite for spiritual things. It is going to take more than coming to church. It is going to take prayer and fasting of the church to open the eyes of the blind. It will take a new consecration to restore that spiritual appetite. God bless you. Amen
