Right now, there is a real spiritual battle going on in the unseen realm. Every Christian must equip themselves against the forces of darkness. Victory is possible when we use the full armor of God described in Ephesians 6.
In Pastor Phil Hopper’s first book, Defeating the Enemy , he helped identify the devil’s strategies. Now, in The Weapons of Our Warfare , Pastor Hopper takes readers to the next level of spiritual warfare!

A powerful read on spiritual warfare from an experienced officer that has been in real battle on a daily basis. Filled with down to earth strategies, this book is a mandatory read to believers who want to live victoriously
In this new book Pastor Phil Hopper relates an incident when he was a rookie police officer and arrived at the scene of a robbery without his gun. He realized that by making this mistake he had risked his life and the life of a store clerk and he shares his experience to remind Christians that we often make this same mistake. We go to war "completely unprepared and completely unarmed" against the spiritual battles that rage around us.
"Whether or not you're paying attention to him, the enemy is paying attention to you." This statement from page 26 reminds us that the Evil One never sleeps and Hopper offers stories, illustrations, scripture, and biblical truths to help us recognize and withstand these attacks. The Weapons of Our Warfare will inspire you to devote more time to reading God's Word, it will motivate you to diligently follow His Word , and it will prompt you to increase your time spent in prayer. Pastor Hopper reminds us that "Prayer makes all the armor of God operable and powerful in our lives." We must all be vigilant against the evil that surrounds us each and every day!
There are so many powerful thoughts and statements worthy of being highlighted and I know that this won't be a book that I read once and then set aside. The Weapons of our Warfare is one of the best Christian books that I've read recently and I recommend it for anyone wanting to deepen their Christian walk.
I received a copy of this book from the author and publisher but there was no obligation to write a positive review.
“God has armed us supernaturally to win spiritually against a very powerful adversary.”(quote from page 7 of the book)
Pastor Phil Hopper’s writing style immediately drew me into the book as he shared one of his experiences as a Kansas City police officer. His time on the police force, as well as being a pastor, gives him a keen perspective in writing this book. He is able to convincingly compare preparation with battling a physical enemy with doing spiritual warfare against Satan.
But this book is much more than about this author’s experiences on the police force. It’s through the Word of God that we find our strength, and Pastor Hopper does a wonderful job of examining the Scriptures and bringing a practical application to our lives.
This book is convicting and inspiring. I wish I could include in this review every quote I highlighted in the book, but that would make this a very long review. I became more aware than ever before of how to take back ground from the enemy of our souls and live a life of victory as a born again believer in Jesus Christ. This book has had a huge impact on my Christian walk in life, and I know that I’m going to be returning to it many times through the years as a source of spiritual encouragement. This is one of the best Christian non-fiction books that I’ve read.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.
There is a very real spiritual warfare taking place in our world, whether one believes or not.
Author, Phil Hopper, brings this to life, in The Weapons Of Our Warfare. Hopper, a former police officer, felt & accepted the calling to become a Pastor. Not only does he describe spiritual warfare, but shares the Scriptural Passages revealing the Armour of God. Then he goes further, sharing practical ways of putting ON the complete armour of God, in our daily lives.
A must read for anyone wanting to learn how to defeat the enemy.
(All thoughts & comments are strictly my own. This book was given to me pre- release.)
In this day and time, we see the enemy gaining more and more ground in our country and in individual lives. We, as Christians, have to prepare ourselves daily to resist the assaults of the enemy and to take back ground he has stolen from us. We have to become a praying nation if we want God to bless us.
This book will encourage you to take hold of God's Word, let it guide your life and lead you to an understanding of who the enemy really is, and how we can defeat him and gain victory in our lives. I highly recommend it.
Your faith and inspired insight have provided a much needed manual for tge spiritual warfare we face daily. Thank you for your diligent research of the scriptures to write this book. May God continue to bless and keep you safe while you are used by him to deliver His message to us.
What a wonderful, clear, realistic and helpful guide to the spiritual warfare going on in every Christian's life and in the world and heavens around us. I will use the insights gained to fight the good fight. This book will be a constant resource for me.
"Put on the full armor of God," Eohesians 6. Phil Hopper explains, in-depth what this entails and how it will cause a victorious life to be possible. Examples from everyday life are used and keep the writing down to earth. Christians who are desirous of revival, strength, and victory should read this one.
"From the greatest battles in life come the greatest blessings." Where we keep our minds is key to our stronghold, wearing the full armor of God. Good reminders here.
The first half really held my interest. The second half left me thinking that the book could have been much shorter if there wasn't so much repetition.
Such a good book and reminder of putting on God’s armor for all the demons of this world. We need to be equipped everyday for what evil throws our way!
