Spritual Warfare Is A Reality.
Ephesians 10:12 reminds us of this.. "For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places."
As Christians, we must acknowledge that there are powerful elements of evil forces that is capable of staking its selves against those who are striving to do what is right. The next scripture I Ephesians references go on to encourage believers to prepare ourselves to “stand” against warfare by leaning upon the God’s Word, the Gospel of Peace, Truth, and Faith as foundations to live by
Opposition Is A Reality.
2 Corinthians 10:4-6 says this... "For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled. "
As Christians, we must remember to acknowledge that our mental well-being is an instrument of success when encountering opposition. We must guard our minds against evil and strive to develop a mindset of peace.
Sinful Desires Are A Reality
James 1:14 says this, "But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed."
As Christians, we must remember that our personal desires can be a source for concern. When our desires go against biblical principles, this has the capacity to indulge in behavior and activities that will drag us into a mindset and thinking process that is void of Godly intent.
