Are You Understanding The Source Of Your Battle and Are You Trusting God To Fight For You?

When we fight our own battles, we fight from the flesh. We allow our emotions to rule and our mouth to reign. When we let God fight our battles, we understand that the battle is spiritual and no matter who we are fighting against, we understand that a spirit is in control. We have to learn how to rest in God. 

We have to learn how to cast our care on Him. We have to learn how to walk in the victory that Jesus died for us to have. Instead of fighting a physical battle, we have to learn how to contend in the spirit realm. We have to learn what our position is when things come up against our life. We have to fight from the position of prayer. 

So often in life we we want to fight what we can see.   We fight with people.   We fight for our rights.   We fight for our lives.   But eventually we get tired of fighting.   We get to a place where we get weary and that weariness even affects our well doing and that is what the enemy wants.   

Understand, victory only comes through God and God has said that the battle has already been won. So the question is, why are you fighting a battle that has already been won?
