Prayer and Spiritual Warfare Training Manual: Zion's Lions Training Manual Series

The true believer is a soldier and must be seen as such from the day of his conversion to the day of his death. He must not live a life of religious ease, nor must he imagine that he can afford to sleep or doze on the way to heaven.This warfare would be unnecessary if man had a nature like that of an angel; and if he were never a fallen creature; but with a corrupted heart, a busy devil, and an ensnaring world, he must either fight or perish. Necessity is laid upon us; we must contend.In order to secure a complete and a permanent victory in this battle, the believer must be fully clad in the whole armor of God, because only a spiritual armor would suffice in a spiritual warfare. “(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;). For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.” (2 Corinthians 10:4; 1 John 5:4 - KJV).Any deviation from the counsels of God will ultimately lead to defeat, spiritual darkness, sorrow, enslavement, and regret. God's express command is that we should put on the whole armor; failure to do so amounts to deviation from His divine counsel.A believer without the armor is exposed to all the whims and caprices of the devil. He is like a city that is broken down and without walls. He is like a building without a roof, windows or doors. He is wide open to the adverse effects of weather, and is infested with all sorts of dangerous creatures. He is unstable, aimless, helpless and hopeless.Any believer who neglects the divine instruction to put on and utilize spiritual armor exposes himself to the harrowing experiences of the unsaved and the unregenerate. Every believer must therefore get himself fully acquainted with these heaven-sent resources in order to thrive in this spiritually hostile world we live in.This Manual is a powerful tool for every believer who would war a good warfare.APOSTLE DR.
