CHAPTER 11: HOW DO YOU CHANGE ANATMOSPHERE / CLIMATE / STRONGHOLDS?1. Understand The Spiritual RealmWe start by understanding and believing Ephesians 2:2 and Ephesians 6:12 whereGod tells us that the Prince of the Air is ruling and operating in the earth.You don’t have to be weird to believe this! When Jesus walked on the earth, there wasnothing super-spiritual about Him -children would hang out with Him and it was part ofHis everyday life to also expel demons.Understand that there is a spiritual war going on around you – it is very real –and if youdon’t take note you are going to suffer the consequences. Territorial spirits work bydictating and creating climates.2. God And AngelsGod is a Spirit and He controls this realm with an Army of Angels – in the heavenlyplaces – in that same invisible realm of the spirit where the forces of darkness alsooperate.3. PeopleWe are also spiritual beings and are very susceptible to that realm. Even when we don’tknow it, it is still influencing us.Ask God will sharpen your discernment. When you travel into new territories, try todiscern what spirit is ruling there. E.g. sexual immorality; depression and despair;arrogance and pride.Begin to think about and understand this realm and realize that while you do not see it,and do not think about it all the time, but you must be aware of it.Learn to operate within the Laws of God that influence that realm and how you MUSTsustain them – you have to be more determined and stubborn than the enemy is insustaining your warfare against the attacks of the evil one!78
