Pastor Bob Larson of Calvary Chapel Caldwell delivers a powerful message on spiritual warfare, focusing on Revelation 12:10-11, where he explains that believers overcome the enemy through the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony. He traces the origin of the spiritual battle back to Lucifer’s rebellion in heaven and Adam and Eve’s fall in the Garden of Eden, emphasizing that sin is ultimately rebellion against God’s will. The sermon underscores the daily choice every believer faces: to walk in obedience to God’s truth or to succumb to the kingdom of darkness through disobedience, lust, and materialism. Pastor Bob stresses that Jesus’ victory on the cross and His submission to the Father’s will—expressed in the simple prayer 'Not what I will, but what You will'—provide the model and power for overcoming. He calls listeners to embrace simplicity in faith, reject excuses, and recognize the internal conflict between flesh and spirit described in Galatians 5:17. The message concludes with an invitation to participate in Calvary Chapel’s upcoming Easter events, which include a dramatic reenactment of Christ’s death and resurrection, family-friendly activities, and free refreshments for first-time visitors.
Spiritual warfare is real and ongoing, fought not with physical weapons but spiritual ones.
The battle began in heaven with Lucifer’s rebellion and continues today in the choices we make daily.
Overcoming the enemy comes through the blood of Jesus, the word of our testimony, and a willingness to not love our lives to the death.
Jesus modeled victory by choosing obedience over His own desires, saying, 'Not what I will, but what You will.'
The flesh and the spirit are in constant conflict—every believer must daily choose to follow God.
