Bible Verses you need when you're under spiritual attack

When you’re under a spiritual attack, you’re not helpless and your fate is not hopeless. You can fight back and it can start with prayer and God’s word. Here are 20 of the best bible verses to turn to when you’re under attack.

When your past tries to come back to haunt you

Not too long ago, a series of events unfolded that reminded me of a past I’d left behind.

A past I’ve reconciled with. One I’ve sought forgiveness for from God and moved on from.

A past for which I no longer live in shame and regret and instead live in the light.

Has this ever happened to you? Just when you thought you were starting a fresh new life, your past came back to haunt you. A tap on the shoulder reminds you of something you worked so hard to move away from.

An addiction you were freed from tries to pull you back in.
A person who once had power over you appears back into your life.
A mistake you made years ago is brought up again unexpectedly.

The enemy wants to pull us back under the veil of shame, doubt, deceit, and dread. It’s easy to get sucked back into the drama sometimes.

But as a new creation in Christ, that’s not who we are anymore.

Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. Ephesians 6:11

What does it look like for you to “take your stand?”

Maybe it’s listening to a sermon on a podcast on your walk or ride into work.
Turning off that show that leads your mind to places that you know are no good.
Giving your time to your kids instead of scrolling your phone.
Starting a Bible reading plan.
Asking a friend to coffee instead of spending another day isolated.
Getting up earlier each day to spend time in prayer.
Take one of the freedom in Christ Bible verses below and commit them to memory.

What you need to do when under attack looks different for everyone because the devil’s schemes are different for each one of us.

But God is greater. And He is in you.
