Guest All4God Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 Angel, I know from experience that the devil likes to attack you the most when something awesome God is going to do. The devil can sense it when God will do something magnificent! But thank goodness that God never gives you something you cannot handle. Everything we go through is a test. I know that from experience. Thanx Angel for that post! ~Telly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The battle is fought in our minds This is where Satan attacks us and this is where we either win our lose our battle. 2Co 10:3-5 For though we walk in the flesh, we don't wage war according to the flesh; (4) for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds, (5) throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ; 1Pe 2:11 Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and pilgrims, to abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul; Satan's battlefield is our mind or soul. This is where he deceives us and attacks us. We must learn to use the spiritual weapons that God has given us. We use the word of God (Sword of the Spirit) against these attacks to overcome.

Guest DocWilliams Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Yes, from 2Corinthians 10:3-5, Hebrews 12:1, et al, we know that we can develop strongholds, weights, besetting sins - all which manifest themselves many times in the form of habits that bring us under their control - a control that Scripture forbids - see 1 Corinthians 6:12. We also know from Ephesians 6 that we are to put on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Jesus describes in John 14:20 how "surrounded" we are by Him, I seem to understand that when Paul later says "I die daily" he is talking about crucifying our "flesh" daily. My "flesh" told me for a long time that no, Jesus had put me up against the devil himself to fight him on my own. But I finally got still enough to hear the Holy Spirit telling me that the "flesh" is an accomplished liar, having learned from the father of lies. It's therefore a comfort for me to know that Jesus's victory over satan is final and eternal, and the only enemy I have to fight is myself. That's a fight I CAN win--as any of us in Christ Jesus can--because greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world. And in this case, I believe that corresponds to my "flesh". Sure makes things a lot easier. Edited July 2, 2009 by Doowopjock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"12": For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
