The reason more Christians do not live victoriously is because they do not know Satan’s strategy. Here’s the reality—unless you gain knowledge about your enemy, you have no hope of succeeding against him. The prophet Hosea wrote about it thousands of years ago in Hosea 4:6, ‘My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.’”
(quote from “Defeating the Enemy”, p. 52)
Before he became a pastor, Phil Hopper was a member of the Kansas City Police Department and SWAT team. He received intensive training and gained valuable experience in identifying the characteristics of individual criminals in order to bring them justice. In this extraordinary Bible study, Pastor Hopper takes us on an investigative look at the Bible passages that describe our enemy and the way that he wages war against us. As you follow Pastor Hopper in his study of this topic through the Bible, you will clearly see who your enemy is; how he is coming against you; and the deliverance we have through Christ Jesus.
Pastor Hopper writes in a way that is very open, readable and relatable. He includes examples of his experiences on the KCPD and in his own personal life to help illustrate the enemy’s tactics and how knowing them in advance can help us avoid the enemy establishing a stronghold in our life.
I would highly recommend this book to you, as it’s already made a great impact in my own life. It would be an excellent study for any large or small Bible study group. I rarely give five-star ratings to any book, but this book certainly deserves that rating.
