7-Step Spiritual Battle Plan to Defeat the Enemy – Psalms 18

Hey Friend!

Have you ever considered that fear, perfectionism, and trials you’re going through are bigger than the little obstacles that are simply ‘part of life’? Have you considered that maybe this is a stronghold in your life and maybe the enemy is behind it? Maybe you’re dealing with spiritual warfare. It’s time to defeat the enemy and be FREE by fighting WITH GOD in battle.

Have you considered that we have a mighty God that wants to walk beside us and help us fight? Do you want a battle plan in your arsenal to pull out and use whenever you are going through something hard? Here is a spiritual battle plan to defeat the enemy. It includes seven steps I’ve outlined for you from God’s word.

Defeat The Enemy With This 7-Step Spiritual Battle Plan From Psalms 18!

This 7-step biblical battle plan workbook is a scripture-based workbook that is laid out step-by-step for you to download and use whenever you need it! Start seeing through your spiritual eyes and exposing the opposition for what it is. It is simply an attack. After going through some trials and warfare myself in the past few months, God generously led me through Psalms Chapter 18. He laid out a spiritual battle plan to defeat spiritual warfare and all the things coming up against us, trying to keep us from rising into the position already promised to us. Psalms Chapter 18 is amazing! It is a psalm of David that he sang to the Lord the day he was rescued from his enemies. There is so much to learn and unpack from this Psalm.

Below are the 7-Steps From The Spiritual Battle Plan:

1. See the enemy attack

“I called on the Lord, who is worthy of praise, and he saved me from my enemies.” –Psalms 18:3-5

• When you are going through something hard, take a step back and ask yourself what the enemy attack is and inventory the trial or stronghold. 
• Questions to ask yourself:
  • Who/what are my enemies?
  • What are the ropes?
  • What is destructive in your life?
  • What are the traps?
• If you aren’t able to see the answer to these questions, ask the Lord to show you what the enemy attack is.

2. Call on God to defeat the enemy

“But in my distress, I cried out to the Lord; yes, I prayed to my God for help. He heard me from his sanctuary; my cry to him reached his ears.” –Psalms 18:6

• Pray to God for help
• Call out to the Lord
• He will hear you!

3. Watch God step in

“Then the earth quaked and trembled. The foundations of the mountains shook;  they quaked because of his anger… The Lord thundered from heaven; the voice of the Most High resounded amid the hail and burning coals.” –Psalms 18:7-13

• This step is fun! God does it all!
• Trust Him to dismantle the enemy attack and confuse the enemy
• Know that God moves on your behalf to weaken the enemy
• God wrecks the enemy’s plans so that you can have the upper hand
• Whoever is coming up against you is coming up against God
• Why does God step in? Because we have shown up for Him and He delights in us

4. God equips you in this spiritual battle plan

“God arms me with strength and he makes my way perfect.” –Psalms 18:32-36

• Think about how God is equipping you. What have you been armed with?
• The fight and battle you think you can’t win because the mountain is so steep you WILL be able to climb. As scripture promises, He will make you sure-footed!
• How is God supporting you through the battle?

Why is He equipping you? It’s a partnership! The battle doesn’t stop there, most often there is persistence, perseverance, and refining that you go through by battling beside God.

5. You battle to defeat the enemy

“I chased my enemies and caught them; I did not stop until they were conquered.” –Psalms 18:37

• After God confuses the enemy and armors you, it’s time to fight!
• If you want to be free from that attack, YOU need to battle
• Chase the enemy with all the ways you have been equipped, knowing that the enemy has already been weakened 
• Don’t stop until the attack is DEFEATED.
• You don’t need to be afraid, because God is with you!

6. God anoints you

“You gave me victory over my accusers. You appointed me ruler over nations” –Psalms 18:43

• God gives you victory!
• After He helps you defeat the enemy, He will anoint you.
• His gifts and blessing wash over you and restore where you’ve been wounded

7. Praise and glorify Him

“For this, O Lord, I will praise you among the nations; I will sing praises to your name.” –Psalms 18:49

• Such a beautiful conclusion!
• We came to the table with God and He helped us.
• It’s time to glorify Him by sharing your testimony.

Partner with God in your spiritual battle plan

Because God is so good, He anoints you, takes care of your wounds, washes your feet, whispers in your ear, and takes you to high places. Then you GET to praise Him and say: “My God did that!” Through that, we create ripples on ripples of revival. Not only that, you are free from the things of this world! 

This battle plan is something that we have to execute every time something comes at us. Ask the Lord to help you, trust the process and really dive into Psalms 18. The best part of this battle plan? The outcome is clear! You win! Remember to grab your biblical battle plan workbook to guide you and help you find strength in the Lord.

I pray this blesses you!
