Everyone has to fight the battle that goes on in the mind. Our thought life determines where we are in the things of God. When people meditate on what is wrong or the negative side of a situation, they become blinded by the problem and never see the escape available to them. Our Heavenly Father has given us a way to bring forth light, and that is through diligent study and meditation of the Word of God. In Hosea 4:6 God tells us, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge."

Yes, it's necessary for us to fill our minds with the Word of God. Also, it's important to ask for revelation by the Holy Spirit to understand and apply the Word. Another kind of battle we are faced with is spiritual battle. I want to become more and more able to fight the nasty spirits that attack me, such as the control spirit (jezabel) by choosing to walk in the opposite spirit, freedom, by giving freedom as I see the Lord give - He doesn't force people to believe in Him, for instance. Our commander-in-chief knows how to lead us, His army. Bless the Lord.
