1 KJV:And it came to pass, after the year was expired, at the time when kings go forth to battle, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried still at Jerusalem. 2 KJV:And it came to pass in an eveningtide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king's house: and from the roof he saw a woman washing herself; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon. 3 KJV:And David sent and enquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite? 4 KJV:And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house. 5 KJV:And the woman conceived, and sent and told David, and said, I am with child. 6 KJV:And David sent to Joab, saying, Send me Uriah the Hittite.

1 KJV:In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2 KJV:And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. 3 KJV:And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 4 KJV:And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. 5 KJV:And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. 6 KJV:And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. 7 KJV:And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. 8 KJV:And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day. 9 KJV:And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.

ESV:Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, 4 ESV:even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. In love 5 ESV:he predestined us for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will, 6 ESV:to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved. 7 ESV:In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, 8 ESV:which he lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight.

1 ESV:Who has believed what he has heard from us? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? 2 ESV:For he grew up before him like a young plant, and like a root out of dry ground; he had no form or majesty that we should look at him, and no beauty that we should desire him. 3 ESV:He was despised and rejected by men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not. 4 ESV:Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. 5 ESV:But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed. 6 ESV:All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned—every one—to his own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. 7 ESV:He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth; like a lamb that is led to

0 KJV:Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 11 KJV:Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 KJV:For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 13 KJV:Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 KJV:Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15 KJV:And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 KJV:Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17 KJV:And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: 18 KJV:Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and wa

KJV:For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 4 KJV:(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 KJV:Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 6 KJV:And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.            Good evening to you, my beloved reader. I hope you have had an amazing and excellent weekend. Today, I am writing on "spiritual warfare". You see as believers whenever this topic is raised, the first thing that always comes to mind is the war against the devil and his cohorts.
