Podcasts about Spiritual Battle

Christians often talk about spiritual battles, but what does God’s Word tell us about them? What do we do when we find ourselves in one?

For the next several episodes we are going to be jumping into a series on how to REVIVE your life and business through facing the spiritual forces that we come against as believers. Scripture is FULL of references to unclean spirits and we are given insight on how to effectively battle these forces, but in today's modern culture we have all but forgotten the importance of standing strong in the Lord so He can fight these forces on our behalf. If you feel like you are facing opposition, discouragement, doubt, an unnatural amount of struggle, insecurity, or attacks in your business, then there is a spiritual force at play. While we do business in the natural, if we are believers, we are fighting spiritual battles in the heavenlies in all we do. In order to see breakthrough in the natural, we must first learn how to overcome in the Spiritual realms. This series is designed to help you do just that. So please come and join me in this first episode as we discover what are spiritual battles and how we are to face them so we can see greater success in all areas of life and business.

Are fear, stress, and anxiety taking up too much space in your heart?In this episode, Russ Ewell sits down with Ray Kim and Stone Eleazer to talk candidly about the emotional and spiritual battles we all face—but often keep hidden. Through real stories and powerful insights from the Bible, they explore how fear, stress, and anxiety affect our mental and spiritual health. Whatever the source of our anxiety and fear might be, this episode reminds us that we're not alone. And we don't have to stay stuck. God is real. He's loving. He's good. And he wants to set us free.

Episode SummaryIn this insightful episode, Dr. Jim Van Gelderen reveals one of Satan's most effective tactics: convincing believers to trust in themselves. Through a gripping story from a Vietnam War veteran and powerful truths from Ephesians 6, he shows how self-reliance—rather than strength—is often our downfall in spiritual warfare. If you've ever felt defeated despite trying your hardest, this message will open your eyes to the real source of strength: moment-by-moment dependence on Jesus Christ.Topics DiscussedRevival updates from Michigan and upcoming ministry in ColoradoA wartime illustration of enemy deceptionWhy self-dependence is spiritual sabotageWhat “be strong in the Lord” really means (Ephesians 6:10)The role of English grammar in understanding the BibleHow human strength fails under spiritual pressurePersonal reflections on a lifetime of weakness and God's faithfulnessPrayer as the breath of dependenceThe connection between pride, self-reliance, and defeatHow to face spiritual battles with real powerKey TakeawaysSatan doesn't need to overpower you—he just needs you to trust yourself.Real strength isn't self-generated. It flows from continual dependence on Christ.Prayer is not optional—it's how you breathe in the strength of God.Victory doesn't come from trying harder. It comes from surrendering fully.

This week, Brian Tome exposes the spiritual reality many of us overlook and lays out a practical battle plan to help you recognize the attack, armor up, and fight back with confidence. It's time to stop being hunted and start standing firm. Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Send us a textFaith comes under fire in seasons of intense spiritual warfare, often targeting our families and personal walk with God. Pastor Gary Pratt delivers a timely message about standing strong when everything seems to burn around you.Drawing profound parallels between Daniel's experience in Babylon and our modern challenges, Pastor Gary illuminates how the enemy uses similar tactics across time. Just as Nebuchadnezzar attempted to transform young Hebrew captives through education, language and culture, today's world systematically attempts to transform our children into its image. The spiritual battle begins at the youngest ages with subtle indoctrination.What made Daniel and his friends extraordinary wasn't simply surviving captivity but thriving despite it. When offered comfortable compromise, they chose faithful obedience instead. Their stand resulted not in loss but in supernatural blessing—appearing healthier and stronger than those enjoying worldly privileges. Later, when thrown into the literal fires of persecution, they emerged without even the smell of smoke on their garments. Most remarkably, they weren't alone in their trial—a divine presence joined them in their suffering.Are you facing your own fiery furnace today? Remember whose you are and the power that lives within you. Don't be ashamed of the gospel—let Christ shine through your life as a compelling witness to those around you.Good morning, good afternoon, wherever you are in the world - Welcome to Grapevine Ministries.

In this episode, we journey into the heart of the interior life—where sonship is not just a theological idea but a lived identity, rooted in the truth of God's love. Fr. Searby explores how misbeliefs about ourselves and others become strongholds for spiritual distortion, and how forgiveness and spiritual warfare begin in reclaiming truth. This is a call to detach from the lies of the enemy, re-align our hearts with the Father's voice, and live in the radical freedom of those who know they are deeply loved.

In this episode of The Nancy Grandquist Podcast we continue our series, "We Worship One God," with this discussion with Pastor Nathaniel Haney.The conversation delves into the concept of the oneness of God, exploring the identity and image of Jesus Christ both before and after Bethlehem. [27:56] Pastor Haney articulates the idea that God has always had a visible image, which was present even before the creation of the world, and this image is the same as Jesus Christ. He explains how this image was the focal point for communication with God, serving as the visible representation of the invisible God. The discussion covers various biblical passages, including Colossians, Philippians, and John, to support the idea that Jesus is the image of God and the creator of all things. [21:36] Pastor Haney also touches on the theological implications of understanding Jesus as the fullness of God, emphasizing the importance of this revelation for worship and prayer.------------Timestamped Chapters Chapter 1: Introduction and Historical Context  00:13 - 01:43Chapter 2: The Oneness Truth and Vision  01:43 - 02:40Chapter 3: The Identity of Jesus Before and After Bethlehem 02:40 - 06:14Chapter 4: The Magnitude of God and His Spirit 06:14 - 10:33Chapter 5: The Image of God and Its Role 10:33 - 19:03Chapter 6: Biblical References to the Image of God 19:03 - 29:41Chapter 7: The Word Made Flesh 29:41 - 39:47Chapter 8: Personal Experiences and Revelations 39:47 - 48:41Chapter 9: The Role of Angels and Spiritual Battles 48:41 - 50:37 Chapter 10: Conclusion and Call to Action 50:37 - 01:03:32

In this episode Leanne explores the question: “Is my obsession with food a spiritual battle?” Drawing from her personal journey and the experiences of countless women, Leanne delves into the idea that struggles with food and body image are not merely about willpower or discipline but are deeply rooted in spiritual warfare, and how the enemy often uses lies and shame to keep us trapped in cycles of obsession and self-condemnation. Leanne offers a compassionate and faith-filled perspective, encouraging listeners to shift from self-condemnation to curiosity, to take their thoughts captive, and to invite God into their healing journey. She underscores the importance of recognizing food as a gift from God, not a master, and our bodies as temples to be honored, not projects to be perfected. Through practical steps and biblical truths, this episode serves as a guide for those seeking freedom from food obsession, reminding them that they are not alone and that true healing is possible through partnership with God.

Men grow up with emotions they can't understand or explain—impatience, anger, frustration, even loneliness or sadness—and because they lack the framework for how to work with these emotions they are ultimately controlled by them. In this episode, John Heinen sits down with T.K. Coleman—top 100 podcaster (The Minimalists) and author of Emotional Clutter—to expose the quiet war within: a spiritual battle fought not with swords, but with unprocessed emotions and buried beliefs. Together they unpack why suppressing emotion doesn't make you strong—it makes you weak and immature. Learn why reclaiming your inner life is essential to leading your outer one. This isn't self-help fluff. It's a battle plan for men who want clarity, freedom, and spiritual firepower in a distracted world. We also discuss our thoughts on Pope Leo XIV.

About 1/4 way into the Major League Baseball season, and you may not be a pro, but experts say you can train like one! We talk on this shorter episode about strengthening your core, flexibility, and faith when times get tough - when you're up to bat in life. Baseball movies teach us lessons. So does discipline when it comes to the principles of fitness and faith. One specific workout called the "hurling exercise" can help with the core aka foundation of your muscles. How about yoga? And the benefits of eating healthier? The sport is sometimes compared to a religion. Baseball's lessons include the power of teamwork and getting grace from God when we're facing those curveball, fastballs in critical moments of our lives. He can work miracles, coming up to bat for us. Thanks for listening to the #RunTheRace podcast, which I hope you'll subscribe to! Share it with your friends.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every single day. A shout-out today goes to David and Patti Fredrickson from Lake City, MN. Thank you both for your kind email, for be grateful listeners, and for becoming month partners. We cannot do this without you. Be like the Fredrickson's and listen daily with your spouse! Today we premiere the next lesson in my newest study for men, titled Blacksmith's Discipline. If you'd like to join me for this click the link to receive notifications and purchase the study book that accompanies the study today. We have four more weeks to go. Today, we're reading Mark 1:12-13: The Spirit immediately drove him out into the wilderness. And he was in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by Satan. And he was with the wild animals, and the angels were ministering to him.— Mark 1:12-13 The moment Jesus is baptized—He's launched into battle. No time to bask in the glory of that voice from heaven. No pause. No pat on the back. The same Spirit that descended like a dove drives him into the wilderness. And what waits for him there? Satan. Temptation. Wild animals. Isolation. It's easy to think that following God should lead to peace, comfort, clarity. But here—obedience leads Jesus into hardship. Before Jesus ever preached a word, He had to fight a war. This wilderness moment matters. Jesus steps into the mess of temptation not because He had to—but because we do. He willingly walks into the fire so He could stand in it with us. He faces Satan head-on, not as a show of power, but as a statement of solidarity. The Son of God chose to suffer first. And Mark tells it fast—just two verses. No dialogue. No breakdown of the temptation. Just this: He was tempted, He endured, He was not alone. God doesn't abandon us in the wilderness—He strengthens us there. You may feel like you're walking through your own desert right now. Maybe you're facing temptation, loneliness, or attack. But take this to heart: Jesus has walked that road, and He's walking it with you now. #WildernessFaith, #JesusFightsFirst, #Mark11213 ASK THIS: What “wilderness” are you currently facing? How do you typically respond to spiritual battles? What does this passage teach you about God's presence in trials? In what ways can you rely more on the Spirit during temptation? DO THIS: Walk into your wilderness today with confidence—Jesus has already been there, and He's walking with you now. PRAY THIS: Jesus, thank you for walking into the wilderness before me. Help me to see your presence in my hardest moments and trust your strength in my weakness. Amen. PLAY THIS: Battle Belongs.

Episode SummaryIn this powerful continuation of his series on The Believer's Authority, Dr. Jim Van Gelderen shares how believers can experience real victory over Satan—not by personal strength, but by being fully submitted to Christ. Reflecting on the recent passing of his prayer-warrior mother-in-law, Dr. Van Gelderen weaves together personal testimony, scriptural truth, and vivid illustrations to show how spiritual authority flows from surrender. When you're under Christ's authority, you stand over the enemy—and he must flee.Topics DiscussedRemembering Janet Cross and her legacy of prayer and faithWhat it means to be “in Christ” and seated in heavenly places (Ephesians 1–2)Christ's victory over Satan and the believer's shared triumphJames 4:7 and the conditions for resisting the devilDelegated authority illustrated with a traffic cop and a mother's commandWhy praying “in Jesus' name” is more than a phraseResisting Satan's influence in weather, illness, and other real-life situationsTotal surrender and total dependence as the foundation for authorityKey TakeawaysSpiritual authority is not earned through strength, but accessed through submission.Christ's victory over Satan is final, and believers share in that authority when yielded to Him.Praying “in Jesus' name” means aligning with His will and authority, not just using a phrase.We must not be passive in the spiritual battle; resisting Satan is an active responsibility.Whether facing external circumstances or internal battles, the path to victory is the same: under authority, over the enemy.

They discuss the transformative power of prayer, the significance of Jesus' sacrifice, and the purpose behind trials and pain. The conversation delves into gender roles, the dangers of self-reliance and pride, and the importance of humility.

Olive oil may be a kitchen essential today, but in Bible times, it was a complex process. Farmers collected the olives, dumped them into hollowed-out rock, and repeatedly crushed them with a large milling stone. This area was called the pressing place. In this program, Chip teaches through the rest of Mark chapter 14, where we find Jesus in an emotionally and spiritually pressing place. Join us to better appreciate the immense burden Christ carried before the Cross and the ultimate sacrifice He made.Main Points I. The observance of Passover = Mark 14:12-25 The preparation for the feast = Mark 14:12-16 The announcement of the betrayal = Mark 14:17-21 The institution of the Lord's Supper = Mark 14:22-25 II. The Garden of Gethsemane = Mark 14:26-52 The prediction of Peter's denial = Mark 14:26-31 The agony of the Servant-Messiah = Mark 14:32-42 The betrayal and arrest of the Servant-Messiah = Mark 14:43-50 The flight of the anonymous streaker = Mark 14:51-52 Three ways Jesus prepared His disciples for impact: He reminded them of the extent of His love.

 Finding time for leisure in our lives often feels like a battle, for the enemy uses many distractions to prevent us from experiencing communion with God and others. As we enter Holy Week and come to the end of this season, Sr. Mary Grace, Sr. Ann Immaculée, and Sr. Marie Veritas reflect on the spiritual battle behind leisure. The Sisters encourage us to overcome the resistance to rest by contemplating Jesus' immense love for us demonstrated on the Cross—He is the ultimate reason for our rest. This season of Let Love is produced in collaboration with Ascension. If you'd like to receive our weekly show notes, as well as occasional updates from the Sisters of Life, text LETLOVE (one word) to 33777 to be added to our email list.

Fr. Mike explores the hard battle which each and every one of us must face, the battle with sin. Together, we examine the mystery of us being both free and under the power of the Devil. Fr. Mike emphasizes that if we are unaware of our wounded nature, it can lead to grave errors in our own lives. If we have an attitude that, “since I'm made good, then everything I'm drawn to must be good,” we can fall into temptation and evil. We conclude on a hopeful note; however, that even after we sinned, God did not abandon us to the “domain of death,” and with God's grace, evil will never have the last word.
