Pastor Paula White preached a sermon about spiritual warfare, encouraging her congregation to stay strong in their faith and to keep the "lights on" by standing firm in their faith and trusting in God. She shared her own story of how she overcame a difficult period in her life and how her mentor encouraged her to keep standing in faith and trust in God. She reminded us that Jesus has already overcome the works of the devil and that they have the authority to declare victory over the enemy. She teaches how to stand firm in your faith, to break every covenant with death, and to declare life and life more abundantly.

Pastor Paula White preaches on the biblical mandate to overcome evil. She discusses the prevalence of evil in the world, and the fact that it is often attributed to social or cultural or psychological dynamics. She stated that evil is actually a person, not a thing, and is identified primarily by two names in the Old Testament, Satan, and in the New Testament, the Devil. Satan is the one who opposes and resists us, while the Devil is the accuser and slanderer. She gives a brief background of Satan, whose original name was Lucifer, and who was the chief of all the Archangels. He was cast down from heaven due to his pride, and now uses accusation and slander as his main weapon. Pastor White outlines the four most powerful weapons against evil, which are the Word of God, the name of God, the blood of Jesus, and our praise. She encourages the congregation to replace their feelings of rebellion with praise, and to listen to Christian music to get their minds in the right place.

In this sermon, Pastor Paula White explains the tactics used by Satan in spiritual warfare against God's people. She explains that Satan is the "accuser of our brothers," who brings legal action against us every day. He looks for any claim he can make against us, and he twists and manipulates the Word of God to do so. She gives four main tactics that Satan uses in spiritual warfare: accusation and slander, stealing our inheritance, killing our efforts, and destroying our lives. She also explains that Satan's ultimate goal is to separate us from God and His plan for our lives, and to ultimately condemn us to an eternity of destruction. She encourages us to fight against Satan and to restore what has been taken from us by the finished work of Jesus. Lastly, she encourages us to forgive those who have wronged us, as unforgiveness can open the door for Satan to bring legal action against us.
