Spiritual Attacks and the Power of Perseverance: A Nigerian Pastor's Insight

In a recent sermon delivered in Abuja, Nigeria, Apostle Joshua Selman addressed the question of why some believers experience increased spiritual attacks despite their commitment to prayer and fasting. He argued that such attacks are not merely random trials but targeted actions aimed at hindering the individual's growth and their potential impact on others. "Your dedication is sending a signal in the spirit," Selman explained, "and when Satan looks at you, he's looking at ten people behind you." The video, which has gained some traction online, illustrates this point by showing a congregation in prayer. While the video's interpretation of spiritual attacks may not be universally accepted, its message of resilience in the face of challenges resonates with a wider audience. The video's popularity, despite its religious focus, suggests a broader interest in understanding the dynamics of adversity and spiritual growth.
