Faith and Spiritual Battles: Fact Check on Inspirational Claims

Praise the Lord, church. >> Hallelujah. >> Before we begin, I want you to look at

your neighbor and say, "God is still working behind the scenes." >> God is still working behind the scenes.

>> Hallelujah. >> Hallelujah. >> Today, we are going to pray, testify,

and remind ourselves that even when we don't see it, God [music] is fighting for us. I'm going to be brief. It's such

a blessing to gather with you [music] all. Whether you're here in the sanctuary or watching from your homes, I

want you to listen to the message. I'm about [music] to pass. Don't look at the person talking or the environment.

Please just listen to what I'm about to say. It might speak to you. Please. Bible says in Isaiah 55:8:9, "For my

thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. He is always working even in

silence." Let's open with a prayer. Father, we thank you for your presence. ask you to open our ears to [music]

hear, our hearts to receive, and our spirits to be stirred. Let your power touch every life connected here now

[music] in Jesus' name. Amen. Ah, before I got married, I went through seasons of confusion and pain. I was in a

relationship with a man I didn't know was married. That relationship was a drain spiritually and financially. Money

came and went, peace left, and I cried out to God [music] for deliverance. Brothers and sisters, I learned the hard

way. Never enter relationship >> lightly. Marriage or relationship is sacred. It requires prayer, wisdom, and

God's guidance. Ah, you know that kind of relationship you [music] in the other partner is at the receiving end. That

was the kind of person he was. I wasn't getting anything and [music] I was struggling. He was succeeding. One day I

said enough is enough because I [music] knew how I was before I met him. That was when God opened my eyes. God showed

me how he was [music] using me to achieve his goals. Sisters, I tell you this. Don't enter a relationship without

praying. [music] Don't say yes because he's cute. Don't let him touch you. And until God speaks

to you, when I wanted to break up with him, it's was difficult for me. I was wondering why. And I saw it in my dream

that I was caged by him. Wherever you are, I want you to say this [music] prayer. Father, wherever I have been

caged, break every chain and set me free. Turn it to prayer. Pray like you mean it. In Jesus name we pray. Ah I

started praying to God to deliver me and and God praise him. He separated me from that path and I began to pray for a

husband because age wasn't by my side anymore. I wrote them down in a book. I prayed Lord give me a husband who loves

me for me not for what he can take. And God [music] answered. I met my husband in church. And that same year we were

married. Yet the [music] battles didn't stop there. We lost two children. One through ectopic pregnancy, the other

through still birth. In my grief, I asked, "Why me Lord?" But God spoke to me in a dream saying, "I can give you

another child, but I cannot replace you." The enemy wanted both you and the child. But I spared your life. That

moment changed me. I cried, "Lord, I will trust you no matter what, church. [music] You may not see it, but God is

fighting your battles behind the scenes." Let's turn to Job 42:10. I want someone to read that verse for us. After

Job [music] had prayed for his friends, the Lord restored his fortunes and gave him twice as much as he had before.

[music] Notice what happened. Job's prayers open the door for restoration and blessing. Double blessing. Prayer

changes everything. It breaks chains, reverses captivity and shifts destinies. Now church, lift your voices and declare

with me, every battle I have fought since MY BIRTH, I DECLARE THE END TODAY, turn it to prayer. Every battle I have

fought since my birth, I declare it in today. Pray in Jesus' name we pray. Remember Daniel in the lion's den.

Daniel prayed for 21 days before he saw the breakthrough. The angel told him, "From the first day [music] you prayed,

your request was heard." The answer was delayed by spiritual opposition, but it came. So don't grow weary in waiting.

Declare, "Lord, every blessing you [music] have released for me that has been blocked, I command release now.

Turn it into prayer. Pray like you mean it. every prince of Persia blocking my blessings. Catch fire. Pray, pray, pray.

And say it with power. No more stagnation. No more delay. No more going in circles. In Jesus' name we pray.

Amen. When we lost our first child, [music] we didn't give up on God because our faith was so strong that we believe

we going to have another one. And at the space of three months, I [music] conceived again and we was happy. We

didn't know we were going to lose the child again at 5 months. Seeing the child alone [music] in the labor room

got me crying and I found myself worshiping God. My husband was shocked and surprised even the doctors. [music]

My dad was pained. Everyone around was confused wondering why all these is happening to us. But you know what? Our

faith and belief in God became stronger, stronger. And our love for each other became more stronger that even us can't

explain it. Listen closely. Life will test you. The devil will try to shake [music] your faith. But how you respond

will deter determine your testimony. Stand firm like Job. Pray persistently like Daniel. Believe deeply like Hannah.

Trust completely like Abraham. Church, I decree [music] over every person listening. Whatever has held you down,

release you now. Every hidden blessing appear. Every battle expire. YOU WILL NOT DIE IN YOUR WAITING SEASON. YOUR

MIRACLE WILL FIND YOU. This year 2026, raise your voice and say with me, "Father, this year I will achieve what

I've never achieved before. LET ME HEAR YOU." SHOUT AMEN LOUD AND STRONG. YOU SEE, CHURCH, what I just shared with you

is not just my story. It's the story of many believers. Battles, heartbreaks, delays, losses, but God's hand was never

off the wheel. Today's message is titled [music] God's unseen battle, victory in the

midst of waiting. [music] I want us to unpack this truth because so often we feel feel forgotten, stuck, or defeated.

[music] The Bible reveals a different reality. Let's start with a powerful passage

[music] from uh 2 Kings 6:15-17. Here Elisha's servant sees the enemy army surrounding them, [music] and he is

afraid. But Elisha prays and God opens the servants's eyes to see the mountain full of horses and chariots of fire. The

unseen army are protecting them. Church, that is the reality for us today. There is a spiritual battle raging, but God's

army is invisible to the natural eye. The enemy may seem strong, but God's protection is strong. Now, look at

Romans 8:28. says, "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called

according to his purpose." [music] Uh even when we can't see how God is working behind the scenes for our

[music] good. Sometimes the battle feels like silence, but it's actually God's strategic move. Job's life teaches us

another vital truth. Though he suffered [music] greatly, losing everything, health, family, possessions. The Bible

tells us in Job 42:12, [music] "The Lord blessed the last part of Job's life more than the former." Why? Because Job

trusted God in the waiting and the suffering. Ah, the waiting was not wasted. [music] It was preparing him for

double blessing. Ah, and what about Hannah who prayed fervently for a child in 1st Samuel 1. For years, [music] she

cried out to God, pouring her soul out. But God delayed the answer. Not because he didn't care, but because he was

shaping her faith and preparing a greater purpose. Ah, church, your waiting season is shaping you. So, what

do we do while God fights for us behind the scenes? One, pray persistently like Daniel who prayed [music] 21 days. Even

when answers seem delayed, keep praying. Prayer is your lifeline to heaven's power. Two, trust God's timing. God's

schedule is perfect. What looks like delay is divine delay, making room for greater glory. Three, stand firm in

faith. When temptation and doubt come, remember Abraham. Abraham was called to trust God even without seeing the full

picture. For declare God's promises, speak life over your situation. Proverbs 18:21 says, "Death and life are in the

power of the tongue." [music] And that's number four to speak life over your situation. Church, your breakthrough is

coming. The battles you face are only temporary. God's victory is certain because the battle is already won in

Christ Jesus. [music] So lift your hands and proclaim, "I am more than a conqueror through Christ who loves me."

Say it loud. No weapon formed against me shall prosper. And finally, I walk in divine victory this year. and every day

forward, turn it into prayer. Sisters, pray. Brothers, pray. Mommy and daddy, please pray. Father, we thank you for

the breakthroughs that are coming. [music] Seal every prayer with the blood of Jesus. Let testimonies rise from

[music] every home watching now. Strengthen the weak. Heal the broken and restore what the enemy [music] has

stolen in Jesus mighty name. Amen. >> A louder amen more than your neighbor. Amen.
