Life.Church with Craig Groeschel

When You’re Under Attack | Unshakable | Part 2

Nov 3, 2024

The discussion tackles the concept of spiritual warfare and the idea that facing challenges often means you’re on the right path. The story of Daniel in the lion's den illustrates unwavering faith amidst trials. An elderly man’s life, serving kings through turmoil, showcases integrity and the value of respect in communication. Finally, it emphasizes standing firm in your beliefs, like Daniel, even when the world feels dark and tempted to sway you.

Deep dives

The Reality of Spiritual Attacks

Living faithfully for God does not exempt individuals from experiencing hardships; rather, it can sometimes make them targets of spiritual attacks. It is often misconceived that following God guarantees an easy life, but the truth is that challenges can arise precisely because one is aligning with God's will. Experiencing difficulties may actually signal that a person is on the right path, as their spiritual adversary takes notice of their actions for God’s glory. Embracing this perspective can provide strength and encouragement during tough times, allowing believers to understand that their struggles are part of a larger spiritual battle.
