LIFEPOINT CHURCH
PASTOR: NATHAN BENTLEY
This week’s message is a bold and urgent call to awaken to the reality of spiritual warfare. Pastor Nathan unpacks the truth that we are not just physical beings having a spiritual experience—we are spiritual beings engaged in a cosmic battle for our hearts, minds, and destinies.
Using Matthew 16 as a foundation, where Peter boldly declares Jesus as the Messiah and is later rebuked for unknowingly aligning with Satan’s agenda, we’re reminded that even our best intentions can be spiritually compromised when we are not vigilant.
The sermon dives deep into how Satan attacks identity, breeds deception through subtle lies, and builds strongholds in our minds if we don’t take every thought captive. But the good news? Jesus has already given us victory. We are not powerless—we are equipped with divine authority to fight back.
Through a practical framework for deliverance, we learn how to walk in freedom—not just once, but daily. This message isn’t about fear—it’s about faith, clarity, and the courage to stand firm in Christ. 🔥 Key Themes from the Sermon:
- The War for Your Soul Is Ongoing: The enemy isn’t passive—he’s active, and so must we be.
- Our Identity Is the Target: The moment Peter declared who Jesus was, he discovered who he was. Satan hates that.
- Strongholds Start with Thoughts: The real war zone is your mind. Don’t agree with lies; expose and demolish them.
Five Steps to True Deliverance:
-Genuine Repentance & Confession
-Renouncing Permissions Given to Darkness
-Tearing Down Strongholds in Prayer
-Replacing Lies with God’s Truth
-Daily Discipline of Taking Thoughts Captive
Victory Is Available: We fight from a place of victory, not for it. But we must still engage the battle. ⚔️ You Are Not Powerless
God has given you weapons, discernment, and authority. Deliverance is not weird or dramatic—it’s the normal life of a free believer.
