Spiritual battles are the battles that occur in the spiritual realm.  We see with our eyes physical battles; we cannot see into the spiritual realm unless God allows it.

Daniel fasted and prayed for an answer from heaven, but his answer from God was hindered by the enemy.  The angel Gabriel was held back from delivering the message because of the battle with the prince of Persia, but Michael, the archangel who protects God’s people, came alongside Gabriel to defeat the demonic ruler.  Gabriel was then able to deliver God’s message to Daniel.

Unite together in faith with believers in prayer and resolve that you will all receive what you need from the Lord.  Have patience, but ask others to pray as well.  We need to stand with each other.

Worship is to show honor or reverence for God according to the Webster’s dictionary; Vine’s talks about worship is a way of life for us in how we serve our Creator.  If you are worshipping the King in every area of your life, then you will have a mighty weapon against your enemy.  Who is your faith in?

You can worship with your body and not actually be worshipping with your heart.  God sees your heart and wants true worship from you.  He doesn’t just want you to make a show of your worship.  He wants you to live worship, to make it a lifestyle.  True worship brings great victory.  Lazy worship is just show, just entertainment to make people feel good.  It’s eccentric, but not real.  Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom, not fakeness.
