This Day We Fight! Breaking the Bondage of a Passive Spirit

Overview

Author Francis Frangipane tells us that the call of God is a call to war. An enemy lurks at our gates, and one of his first lines of attack is often a spirit of heaviness, which causes Christians to become passive. As a result, they do not pray with authority against the enemy, rendering themselves defenseless in the unfolding battle.

Backed by experience and delivered with passion, Frangipane’s timeless message equips believers to receive a fresh anointing from the Holy Spirit--an anointing that will activate the “war mode” in their hearts. We stand at the cusp of a major spiritual awakening in our land, and this is no time for surrender. No, this day we fight!

Top Highlights

“We are as strong and invulnerable to spiritual attack as we are close to Him.” (source)

“You may be one of them. Isaiah 61:3 kjv talks about ‘the spirit of heaviness.’ The nasb renders this ‘a spirit of fainting.’ Whether we call this evil a spirit of heaviness, fainting or passivity, it is what keeps people from exercising their spiritual strengths.” (source)

“The Church is overstocked with people who identify themselves as Christians but have no determined will to fight the fight of faith. They simply have adjusted to the level of their oppression and now tolerate a religious, but mostly empty, spiritual life.” (source)

“We become discouraged whenever we start evaluating our negative circumstances based upon information supplied by our senses. The antidote, therefore, is to form our opinion of life based on the promises and goodness of God.” (source)

“When we pray for the nations, God bends reality and moves life in the direction of redemption; when we fail to pray, life descends into deeper chaos.” (source)
