Strategies for Tackling Opposition

Opposition is par for the course in this life.

Everybody in every field has their own strategy to handle this type of situation.

In the word of God, we discover that Jesus, Paul, Nehemiah, and many others faced opposition, so we are in good company.

It is essential to remember that our enemy is not the person in front of us; it is the spirit that is within the person (example: a spirit of jealousy or envy).

At any rate, our God-given assignment can’t be stopped.

As Christians, we have a tried-and-true strategy for tackling opposition.

How do we go about doing that?

1.Pray to God about whatever the issue is.

2. Put on uplifting gospel music (One of my favorite songs is Blessing in the Storm by Kirk Franklin.)

3. Read books such as Battlefield of the Mind by Joyce Meyer or listen to biblically sound podcasts or sermons.

4. Confess these scriptures: 2nd Corinthians 10:3-5; Ephesians 6:10-20; Romans 8:31-39; Isaiah 50:7; Galatians 5:7-8; Psalm 56:9; Genesis 50:20; Nehemiah 6:3,9; 1st Corinthians 16:9

5. Ask fellow believers in God to pray for you. Surround yourself with people who encourage you, support you, and help you challenge the lies of the enemy.
