Bible Note: Hi Janae, If I might offer 3 observations in order to help in your understanding:-) 1. I don't think anyone is trying to "take this lightly". However, I would -again-recommend that you heed the advice given! Are you or are you not truly "trying to learn all I can about His Word"? True learning necessitates listening and acting on advice (Prov. 19:20). 2. Time and again you use NON-BIBLICAL TERMINOLOGY. This only confuses the issue because we (and you) must define what you're refering to. There is no such thing as a "spirit of suicide"- BIBLICALLY! Scripture also NEVER commands us to "PRY" anybody loose. Again, without clear definitions we can only guess what you mean. 3. Scripture clearly defines our "battle-dress" for spiritual warfare in Eph. 6:10-18. I do not lessen the necessity of prayer- it's included. "The Armor of God 10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. 14 Stand firm therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 in addition to all, taking up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18 With all prayer and petition pray at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints,..." Note that our only offensive weapon is the Word of God! Prayer is closely coupled with this. I trust this will be of some help to you. BradK |
