The Unseen Realm Awakening: Unseen Battles

Aug 24, 2025    Pastor Tammy Long

Quick Glance: For Your Heart Today

There’s more happening than meets the eye. The Bible reminds us that our struggle is not against flesh and blood but against unseen spiritual forces. Yet, we often live unaware—focused on what we can see, while the real battle rages in a realm we cannot.


This is not to stir fear—but to awaken us to truth. In 2 Kings 6, Elisha’s servant panics when surrounded by enemy forces. But Elisha prays, “Lord, open his eyes.” Suddenly, the servant sees the hills ablaze with God’s army.


That’s the heart of this message: what looks overwhelming is never the whole story. God is with us, fighting for us. And He invites us to stand strong, fully armed with His truth.


3 Takeaways

The Battle Is Real—and It’s Spiritual.

Our struggles aren’t just human problems; there’s a spiritual dimension at work. Awareness is key.

You Are Never Outnumbered.

God’s presence and power are greater than any enemy. When fear closes in, remember: “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”

Prayer Opens Our Eyes.

Like Elisha’s prayer for his servant, our prayer should be: “Lord, open my eyes.” Spiritual clarity helps us see God’s presence and power at work even when life feels surrounded.
