27 Powerful Scriptures For Spiritual Warfare

When it comes to waging effective spiritual warfare against the kingdom of darkness, spiritual warfare scriptures are indispensable. 

The word of God is the sword of the spirit—the number one offensive weapon (against the kingdom of darkness), which Heaven has placed at the Believer's disposal.

Why Engage In Spiritual Warfare


The enemy is bent on carrying out his three-pronged assignment of stealing, killing and destroying (John 10:10).

In this end time, he has unveiled all the weapons in his arsenal against the Church. The enemy knows that his time is short, hence, why he works extra-time to ensure he pulls more souls into hell.

The battle is the Lord's, but He works through us. The end time Christian is God's Battle Axe against all end time demonic disturbances.

Why We Should Use Scriptures In Spiritual Warfare


No matter how spiritual we may be, the enemy is not afraid of us as much as he is scared of God's Word.

Swift and lasting victory against the works of darkness is ensured by engaging the kingdom of darkness in spiritual warfare, using warfare scriptures. 

I believe you will find these warfare scriptures helping, in your assignment of frustrating the activities of darkness.
