A few weeks ago, I wrote about “The Battle”, and felt that I should dive a little deeper into this. We are constantly in a fight that is not a physical fight. You can’t bring a gun or knife to this fight. This is a battle that is raging within our own minds. We can feel the hits from the attack, but not in our flesh, but in our inner selves. Many of us sit back and allow our enemy to declare war against us in our minds and never do anything to fight back. The reason for this is because we don’t know how to fight back. We either stay silent, or become angry and want to lash out emotionally or physically. Everything in life happens twice. We see in our minds what we want and then go after it until it is a reality. But all things must first be realize in our minds. This is why our enemy wages war against our minds. We must learn to do warfare according to the weapons that are being used against us. Our thoughts must be protected  by our words. Any thought that comes against our mind that is contrary to what we want must be counteracted with words. When we open our mouths, our minds will have to focus on what we are saying, and thus, stop the onslaught the enemy is waging against us.

Scripture Reference:

2 Corinthians 10:3 – 5

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds; Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
