Malaikat Agung Mikael mengalahkan pasukan Setan: sebuah gambaan umum dari perang spiritual. Lukisan karya Luca Giordano
Perang spiritual adalah konsep Kristen dari pertarungan melawan tindakan unsur kejahatan preternatural. Ini berdasarkan pada kepercayaan Alkitab tentang roh jahat, atau iblis, yang dikatakan campur tangan dengan urusan manusia dalam berbagai cara.[1] Berbagai kelompok Kristen mengadopsi praktek-praktek untuk melawan unsur semacam itu, berdasarkan pada doktrin demonologi Kristen. Doa adalah bentuk umum dari perang spiritual di kalangan Kristen.[2] Praktek lain meliputi pengusiran setan, penumpangan tangan, puasa dan diurapi dengan minyak.
