Our Spiritual warfare series
“Many shall purify themselves and make themselves white and be refined, but the wicked shall act wickedly. And none of the wicked shall understand, but those who are wise shall understand.”
— Daniel 12:10
Highland, as we concluded our series through Daniel earlier this year, this passage continued to resonate within my prayer-life. Recognizing that, according to the angelic-being speaking to Daniel, that “those who are wise will understand”, our study of spiritual warfare would allow us to see and yield to the wisdom in God’s Word.
As our hearts are enlightened through this study, it is my hope that we will firm up our grip upon God’s Word, as it relates to spiritual warfare. Handling His Word like a sword, let us learn to disentangle ourselves from the talons of the evil-one. I am praying, too, that we learn to discern truth from the lies of the enemy, which we so often assign belief, thereby soiling our hearts.
The only way to cleanse and purify our hearts is through the wisdom of God’s Word. I am praying that we gain a richer understanding of how to, in the Holy Spirit, navigate through the valleys of wickedness, according to the light of His Word. Therefore, here are our goals for this Topical Series:
To define Spiritual Warfare Biblically
To better understand the power and the work of the Holy Spirit in the life of the repentant-sinner
To understand our enemy, the devil, creating Biblical tactics to stand firm against our enemy.
This upcoming Sunday, we continue to understand how Scripture sheds light on spiritual warfare. We will take a look at how Jesus defines our enemy, then take the time to look at how we handle temptation as well. I look forward to seeing you. By the way, last week’s sermon is available through our audio page.

Highland Cafe’ update
To those who are coming to minister, thank you! Please continue!
Each weekday, we open our cafe to those who want to stop by and grab a free cup of coffee. The hours will be 8:30am-11:30am. We need willing volunteers to come and greet our coffee drinkers. Take this opportunity to pray with those who enter, to spend time with one another over a warm cup of coffee.
Another way you could assist is to help us stay stocked with coffee supplies – things like K-cups, sugar, cups, spoons and cream. As the weather warms up, water bottles and snacks are great additions too! You can make a donation to “Neighborhood Missions” through our website or consider just bringing items by the church throughout week. Coffee goes a long way in expressing our love to our neighbors! Thanks for helping us care for our community!
Reinforcing our van driving team
We are hoping to reinforce our van-driving team. Currently, our team’s incredible – wow, thank you, van drivers. It is our hope, though, to help divide and conquer. We are hoping to get enough drivers to create a morning team and an afternoon team of drivers. Please contact us if you are willing to help strengthen our van route.
