This book is a concise guide to spiritual warfare. Chip Ingram gives a well-balanced and biblical approach to how we should arm and defend ourselves in spiritual battle. His book is divided into 4 sections: 101- What Every Believer Needs to Know, 201- How to Prepare Yourself for Spiritual Battle, 301- How to Do Battle with the Enemy and Win, and 401- Deliverance from Demonic Influence. He has done battle himself many times and gives personal examples to further illustrate the concepts he is relating to the reader. Spiritual warfare can be an intimidating subject for many Christians, but I would highly recommend they read this book so they may begin to overcome any fear and live victoriously in Christ. ( )

A great reminder on why we need to keep our mound saturated with the word of God. ( )

The whole book is chalk-full of practical "how to" ways to stay in the Lord and fight spiritual battles when they arise. This book was mentioned in another book, "For the Joy Set Before Us" by Erica Fye and I am so glad I got it! Chip Ingram has extensive experience with spiritual warfare and is a wealth of knowledge. It was eye-opening, giving real-life examples of spiritual warfare going on in the U.S. and overseas. It also gives reasons why most Western Christians don't seem to experience much in the way of spiritual warfare.

It explains the urgency for prayer that is consistent, intense, and strategic and if we'd pray like that, more spiritual battles would be won.

The Bible says to put on your spiritual armor, but "The Invisible War" helps explain what each armor piece is, what it does, and it explains how to put it on. I underlined something on every page - that's how good it is! This book is a keeper! It will be a reference tool I will go back to over and over again! ( )
