Course Description

If you were to select one word to describe your daily life, what would it be?  Routine?  Boring?   Stressful?  Pleasurable?  For many of us, perhaps the first word that comes to mind is "struggle", or a similar adjective.  Often, life seems to be a daily battle against discouragement, disappointment, and depression.  We wrestle against a maze of difficult circumstances that may include a broken home, failing relationships, poor health, or diminishing finances.  


Sometimes, in the midst of this battle of daily living, we feel we are all alone and that no other "mature" believers seem to have such problems. As you pick up this workbook on "Strategic Spiritual Warfare", let us dispel one lie of the enemy right up front.  You are not alone in your struggles.  


The entire record of God's Word, the Bible, describes men and women who faced difficult battles of life.  In fact, the Apostle Paul describes life as a combat, conflict, and continual wrestling.  This is the spiritual arena of life known as "spiritual warfare".  No subject in Scripture is more controversial and difficult to deal with than that of spiritual warfare.  


Many people either have an aversion to talking about Satan and demons or demonstrate a tendency toward overemphasizing the enemies of our soul.  Aside from the fear often generated when the subject arises, there is also the problem of a distorted world view.  


The Western mind-set is quite different from that of the cultures to which the Bible was originally delivered.  If we are to really understand the world in which we live and God's desire for it, we must be instructed by the Holy Spirit in a mind-set  different from that which now exists, a mind-set that incorporates the spirit world. 


Regardless of the misplaced emphasis on the subject of spiritual warfare, one thing is quite clear:   Jesus recognized the daily struggles we all face,  He acknowledged a very real spiritual enemy, and He provided effective strategic spiritual guidelines for dealing with him.  To be effective in spiritual warfare, we need to know these spiritual strategies and how to put them into action. It is for this reason that "Strategic Spiritual Warfare" has been written.  


Instead of just learning about spiritual warfare, you will actually begin to do warfare through a 15-step interactive program that will guide you in facing the battles of life.  As you study and apply this material, please be aware that we have tried to be as scripturally accurate as possible.  We have also tried to give the work an equilibrium beneficial to people from a wide range of backgrounds.

We are so blessed to offer the anointed Harvestime International curriculum. "The purpose of Harvestime International Ministries: It was upon the spiritual harvest fields of the world that Jesus Christ constantly focused the attention of His disciples: "Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? Behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest." (John 4:35) The challenge given by our Lord is for laborers, men and women who know how to reap the spiritual harvest fields of the world for the Kingdom of God. It is to this purpose that Harvestime International Network is dedicated–to recruit, train, motivate, and mobilize a network of international harvesters capable of: 1. Intercession for international spiritual harvest:…The harvest truly is plenteous, but the laborers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that He will send forth laborers into His harvest. (Matthew 9:37-38) 2. Articulation of the principles of spiritual harvest: And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also. (2 Timothy 2:2) 3. Demonstration of the principles of spiritual harvest: And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. (1 Corinthians 2:4-5) 4. Communication of the urgency of the mandate for worldwide spiritual harvest: The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved. (Jeremiah 8:20) 5. Mobilization of members of the Body of Christ to reap their appointed fields in worldwide, end-time harvest:…He reserveth unto us the appointed weeks of the harvest.
