Some pastors on google have written some helpful mini sermons. Gather and compare to your Bible.
Your SWORD is scriptures you can preface with: IT IS WRITTEN:
The blood of the Lamb scriptures are the one thing that makes them flee. They will not step over Jesus's Blood.
I was rescued out of the occult; you gotta memorize those scriptures. Speak it out.
Look in the Book of Revelation.
Familiar Spirits are demons from ancestors that practiced some kind of occult; even quija boards. All kinds of known or unknown evil. They use that to trick and torment present day Family. Family demons. Use the right names from the Bible.
Alcohol, pills, dope, opioids, heroin, alcohol
etc are Bondage demons; sorcery.
Their aim is death. Get knowledge.
Ephesians 6: it's weird to fight something invisible...but some can manifest by holding your eyelids shut, hold you down and your mouth, so you can't speak scripture.
Remember that Jesus can hear you screaming the blood of Jesus with your MIND. He will send angels to release you immediately!
Satans thugs don't have Authority to do those things. Know Your Authority in Jesus.
Go listen to some Charles Capps on Youtube.
We can ask God to send angels, to guard the house, the kids, the car. We do not tell the angels what to do. They report to heaven. Angels in heaven praise God, so sometimes I play worship music and sing.
Have an awareness of heaven. Anything in your home that's a bad influence on anybody, needs to be let go. Kids and teenagers can watch Christian cartoons, Bible stories, and movies on YouTubeTv. You hook it up to your tv. Greater is He that is in us, than he that is in the world. Gently wean your kids over to Christian media.
Watch with them.

Many years ago, I heard a preacher share how, at the start of each day, he would take each piece of his spiritual armour & animatedly put it on himself. This made the act of preparedness to face each day, with the Enemy of our souls at the door, a graphical reminder of how every part of his body was prepared for the day's battle. This at first sounded a little childish & simplistic, but it meant to him, being alert in mind & spirit as he stepped outside his front door. I say, that if it takes a few minutes each day to do this & we are better prepared to tackle the enemy, then go for it. But watchfulness is the key & not spiritual slumber. May you grow closer to your Lord & win many battles with your holy Armour.
I ask that this position be in alignment with the schedule I need so that I may remain faithful in all other personal and professional commitments. I know that you have a job for me, and I will trust you in getting me there.
My faith is strong and I trust You, Lord. I will praise you now for mercy and grace!
Amen. Hallelujah! Ephesians 6:13
Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:
At the 2nd Advent of Jesus, the Lord will deal mercilessly with satans network of evil, and finally Satan too.
The mention of "principalities, powers, rulers of darkness & spiritual wickedness" are all terms referring to this spirit world of evil. And we know that the god of this world is the devil ( 2 Cor 4:4, Jn 12:31, 16:11) for he rules for now, capturing the hearts of many, seducing & causing them to believe in his lies. He's have a wild time with mankind & knows that his days are numbered when he, his wicked demons, & all who reject the Lord & His Christ, will one day be locked away forever - all sin will have gone & we will return to the beauty & perfection which was in Eden.
You mentioned specifically 'principalities'. A principality is an area, whether small or large, that is ruled by a prince. My earlier Bible references speak of this 'prince'. He has ruined God's creation with sin & suffering & has a host of angels (demons) that do his bidding. He wreaks havoc over the world, yet so many are blissfully unaware of his presence & power & believe this is a normal life we live. But those who have put their trust in God & attend to His Word are Satan's prime targets & we need to remain vigilant, putting on the whole armour of God (vv 13-18) & defeat him daily in the Lord's Power. We can't get away from it - we are in a fight - the battle will be long - but the end is victory through Jesus Christ ( 1 Cor 15:57).

So, it's my opinion that we should take care of ourselves, including physically, like what we eat, exercise, hygiene, security, and personal safety. For safety there are lots of ways to protect oneself and ones property, like door alarms, security light sensors, cameras, pepper spray, dazzler lights, loud sirens, decoys, surprises, extra secure doors, windows, layers. I personally would do 100% of that before buying firearms, but that is my personal opinion. Even though we should protect ourselves we should not fear, but trust God. Matthew 10:28. May God bless you!
The five smooth stones are part of a Rock ( 1 Corinthians 10:4) i.e. Jesus Christ . So Jesus Christ is nothing but word of God ( John 1:1 & 14). Matthew 21:44 Its a weapon and Lord has given us spiritual weapon to fight against all demonic powers against us. They are 1. Faith : Hebrew 11:1,6 Hebrews 12:2, Galatians 5:22(F.O.S), 1 Corinthians 12:9(G.O.S) Ephesians 6:16(A.O.G), Matthew 17:20 2.Word of God: John 1:1, Psalms 107:20, Isaiah 55:11, Hebrews 4:12 3. Prayer : Jeremiah 33:3, Matthew 17:21 4. Anointing : Isaiah 10:27, 5. Obedience : 1 Samuel 15:22. If we have this five spiritual smooth stones which formed from Jesus , we can overcome this world. ( 1 John 5:4). David had faith in the Lord and put it into action, also had the special horn anointing to break all the yolks by obeying to the voice of the God. David was a man of prayer. Big things comes in small packages. Victory is ours.

I worked homeless, crisis, dual diagnosis, substance abuse too. I read your post.
This Word of God Ephesians 6: 10-18 teaches us to stand strong in faith in Jesus name. To put on the armor of God. We are called to war in the spirit, we can't see the devil but He sees us because Christ is in us.
I've found that enemy will use anyone to try to destroy our faith in who God says we are in His Word.
Stay strong!! God loves you!!
Congratulations! May God bless you richly through your decision to follow Him.
This is a verse on putting on the armor of God that I recommend for all:
Ephesians 6:10 - 6:18
Also, this page has some great growth steps:

You have a great journey ahead of you. May God bless you!
May God bless you. Hang in there.
Let God's truth give you hope. Put on the armor of God, resist satan, and think of the positive things.

Philippians 4:8
Many things are spiritual warfare, but I don't believe all things are. For example, job problems or worry about a virus. In some states the virus is less severe than a normal flu season. Around 7,500 die in the US every day and 10,000 are born, so when the media ignores the top risks and only talks about the lower risks and stirs everyone into a panic it does everyone a disservice, so I would not trust them. Trust God.
God bless!
Satans time is short and he's doing all he can to make us unemployed, sick, scared, suicidal,addicted,sad
1 Samuel 18:4 Exchanging Armor
And Jonathan stripped himself of the ROBE that was on him and gave it to David, and his ARMOR, and even his SWORD and his BOW and his BELT.
Jesus exchanged HIS armor with US. Why?
Because we are warring against spiritual wickedness in high places. Ephesians 6:10-18. Read ALL those center column references to other Books. See Isaiah 24:21-22. Romans 13:1-5,11-12; John 12:31
Jesus did not leave us here to just wear a wedding garment and hold a lamp of oil.
He left us scripture that we're to do spiritual war in the heavenlies. It's about strong faith and prayer: intercession; "standing in the gap". Jesus is making intercession for us right now! People come into the prayer room with grievous problems we SHOULD BE praying & doing war for. Ephesians 6:12, Romans 8:38, Colossians 1:9, 16-17; 2:15. 1 Thessalonians 5:8
Standing in the gap is when you hold a lamb in your arms of prayer, and war against the demonic hoards that are trying to kill it; steal its life, destroy its hope in Jesus! It should make you want to save that lamb. Do you have any "lambs" in your life? Are you willing to snatch it out of the hands of Satans hoard of demons, WITH the WORD of God?
You have a wealth of Bible Knowledge but are any lambs being saved with weighty speech? Don't you want to receive a Crown at Bema Seat? What would Jesus do? He showed us in His Gospels. If we are His followers we will imitate what he was Doing.
Multitudes of people are committing suicide for unbelievable reasons. That's on Satans scoreboard. Is there anyone who will challenge that? Do you know how to take the scriptures and frighten the demons off of someone on a chair with a rope around their neck? Or a hypodermic needle going in an arm.
Parents!Pray rightly for your kids. Punch out Satan! We have permission!

Multitudes of people just in America, are committing suicide for unbelievable reasons. That's on Satans scoreboard. Is there anyone who will challenge that? Do you know how to take the scriptures and frighten the demons off of someone on a chair with a rope around their neck? Or a hypodermic needle going in an arm.
Parents!Pray rightly for your kids. Punch out Satan
Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth
But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloke also.
And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him two
Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
But I say unto you, LOVE your enemies, BLESS them that curse you, DO GOOD to them that hate you, and PRAY for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you
That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sends the rain on the just and on the unjust.
For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans do the same?
And if ye salute your friends only, what do ye more than others? do not even the mean people so?
Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
I know you've read this part. It's very hard to pray for them. You have to stand fast and do excellent work, AS UNTO JESUS! Make HIM proud.
I had the same problem with the bosses and unholy coworkers. If you are working as if Jesus is your Boss; this will be easy.
Pray every day for them all to be promoted.
No sour looks. Be helpful but don't get drawn into office GOSSIP. Having done all, TO STAND. If you will do this as to Jesus your Big Boss: He's gonna take care of you. Stand solid in faith!
It works! I saw a lot of mean people get promoted out...and I had 'peace in the valley'.
For by Him, or more literally, in Him. There's a prepositional word there that means in. In Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, and that's lordships, or principalities, or authorities:
So He's made everything, both visible and invisible. I look back to Ephesians 6:12 and I see that these listings of dominions, principalities, and powers are ranks of angels. Angels have military rank, both good angels and evil.
Paul says, 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. The word high places in the Greek means spirit realm. So it seems as though angels have rank.
But the emphasis here is that in Christ, all things were created, both visible and invisible. Things that are in heaven and things that are upon the earth, all the spiritual creatures, angels, were created in Him. All things were created by Him, and that's the word through. In Greek, it is DIA with the Genitive. All things were created through Him, and for Him: that's the preposition EIS, meaning unto Him, or for Him.
I'm just sharing what I see from that Verse, not looking for a long drawn out discussion, but just sharing my understanding. I am however curious to see how others see this verse.
