For more than fifteen years I have wanted someone to help me create a game of every battle fought in the Bible. I am not a gamer nor a programmer but I can see exactly how it should be. I do not like war or fighting and wondered why I felt the call for so long to do something I am not equipped to do. The answer is in the question. Today God reminded me how He fought and fights every battle ,we are to be as the army of Gideon . If we do not understand how He went to battle in the beginning of the Bible then how will we understand after The Cross. We only have one enemy and that enemy is not only ours but God's. If we think we can win on our own an enemy that goes against God then we do not understand the war we are in.
Everyday we are to suit up with what God gave us to be equipped with , what He gave us nothing more . He equipped Gideon and He equips us. We can not win against the enemy of this world with anything but God as our Commanding Officer and what He gives us to fight with. It may seem we win with jail, death or man made weapons but that is the trick of satan.
The enemy gains more territory in end times because we forgot who we fight and Who fights for us. Our enemy is not seen but uses things seen , he is very good at his job. If you doubt his power and boldness ask yourself if you would want to war against God, he is that bold . That thought makes me tremble yet satan seems to be winning on earth. I pray someone creates that game in my head one day for our children that love to play games. They need to understand how battles are really won.
If our children are going to play violent games then you can not get more violent than Genesis to Revelation. I watch what people play and see how satan uses those games. Isaiah 43 was my chapter today and it is a great reminder but Ephesians 6 tell us what to put on. Unless we know every battle in Scriptures like we know the war games being played today on our computers , Who won , with what and how, then we can quote Ephesians 6 all day but not really wear it...
