Every believer has a voice and it's the voice of victory.

My God has made a way for me.

Hello, I'm Pastor George Pearson's welcome to the Believers Voice of Victory.

This week we've been sharing messages from our Word Explosion military salute meeting.

Today is the final message of our study focusing on persistent faith.

When it comes to our families, our churches, our nation,

persistent faith declares what it believes. Let's begin our study now and

learn how persistent faith will wear down the enemy's resistance.

Put on God's whole armor, the armor of a heavy armed soldier which God supplies,

so that you may be able successfully to stand up against all the strategies and the deceits of the devil.

So now we know the devil has strategies.

He does have strategies.

He has strategies to get you off course. He has strategies to discourage you.

He has strategies. The King James Version calls it Wiles to be able to stand against the Wiles of the Devil.

Wiles in the Greek is the word Methododia which means methods of the devil.

And it says in 2 Corinthians 2 11, we are not ignorant of his devices we're not ignorant of his strategies

we're not ignorant of his evil plans and his schemes that should be part of our training. To know what those devices are, what those

strategies are. And Troop, I want to talk to you today about one of them. One of them that he uses. One of the most

diabolical strategies of the devil is his use of persistence.

Persistence.

Persistence applies non-stop, constant, continual, steady, relentless pressure to a situation or a person,

and does not let go until all resistance is broken
