"The enemy has built strongholds in cities and institutions, but prayer is the aerosol that clears the way for ground invasion."In this gripping message titled The Devil's Territory, Pastor Todd Smith takes us deep into the spiritual battle raging over regions, families, churches, and personal callings. Drawing from 1 Thessalonians 2 and Acts 13, he illustrates how even the Apostle Paul—filled with the Holy Spirit—faced demonic resistance that delayed his God-given assignment. This message challenges the often-misused phrase “God is in control” and calls believers to embrace personal responsibility, spiritual discernment, and militant prayer.You'll discover how high places—both physical and spiritual—become the devil's staging grounds, and why they must be torn down through intentional, Spirit-led warfare. From Thessalonica to modern-day Dawsonville, we are called to take back territory and refuse to bow to religious, apathetic, or demonic influence. This is not a call to comfort, but a call to arms. The church must rise with fire, clarity, and truth that pierces darkness.
