Overcoming the Adversary: Warfare Praying Against Demon Activity

This sequel to Bubeck's book "The Adversary" is much better in quality and content than the first volume. The bulk of this work focuses upon the armor of God as described in Ephesians 6, and upon what it means to wear that armor in daily life. I've read numerous treatments of the armor of God, and the explanation given here is certainly among the best. For anyone wanting practical tips and insight on spiritual warfare, this title is by all means a very good investment.

This was a life changing book for me. Far from being a sensationalistic book about demons etc, the focus is on Jesus Christ and God's truth as revealed in the Bible. While reading it, I understood for the first time that I needn't be subject to the emotional-spiritual-psychological baggage of my past. God's Truth is "true" and His character doesn't change. He is reliable in spite of the emotional "reality" to which we are subject at a particular time in life. Through knowing that truth, we gain a perspective of life and reality which puts all else into true perspective. He addresses satan as a real adversary, yet makes it clear that he, too, is subject to God's truth. I thank God for Bubeck and the work he composed. Highly recommended.

This is an easily read book that teaches the reader how to go on the offensive in spiritual warfare. Using suitable examples of praying against the enemy and directly confronting the enemy (whether for ones-self of as an intercessor for another) There is also an excellent section on praying to reaffirm our allegience to God. Although these examples are either general or directly specific to a situation that is used as an illustration, one can quickly learn how to formulate either prayers or confrontational statements that are very effective. Of course it is important to be in a real living relationship with the risen Christ. These are not magic spells for controlling demons.
