New State of the Bible data from the American Bible Society says 26% of U.S. adults report experiencing a spiritual attack, CBN News reports. That jumps to 58% for practicing Christians, versus 28% of casual Christians, 24% of nominal Christians and 10% of non-Christians.
How people respond
- 74% pray
- 36% declare Christ’s authority
- 24% put on praise and worship music
- 15% meditate on or quote Scripture
My take
That last number is the one that jumped out at me. Jesus answered the enemy with “It is written.” The Word is the sword of the Spirit (Ephesians 6:17). Pray, worship, take authority in Jesus’ name, and keep Scripture ready in your mouth. “Our struggle is not against flesh and blood” (Ephesians 6:12).
