Corinthians? ?10:3?-?4? ?NIV?? [3] For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. [4] The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. So many lost from tragedies of war Satan out to kill, steal and destroy Flipped around as if ones are fighting for God If one wants to fight for God Call upon His promised spirit to resurrect new life Then the true battle of crucifying old self That can't be done in own works will ignite Allow God to mold one unto what defeats the true enemy For no weapon created by hands of man Has authority to release one from bondage The battle will remain even till it's only oneself Unless one seeks the guidance of God That has authority to release from captivity Away with stronghold dominions leading to death Which will begin to reveal the true depth of war We all have this unseen battle To decide which God we choose to serve Either on the battle field are in the comfort of home To receive new love for ones you were taught to hate Are continue to hate and lead your own fate In hope one might receive this new love and peace Observing this is a beautiful day the Lord has made This world is out to destroy the presence of God This can be seen so clearly once snatched out of it Just praying one day others see this endless cycle Of destruction out to destroy humanity God has sent One to die for us That we might put off the old self To see our struggle is not against flesh For flesh accounts for nothing While the Spirit brings forth Life Corruption is everywhere to keep ones in confusion Even down to religion in the Lord's temples Until one recognizes they are the temple God's presence wants to dwell within May all continue to pray in knowing what All have been given access to become A family united in the presence of God ??Ephesians? ?6:12? ?NIV?? [12] For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

"God has sent One to die for us That we might put off the old self To see our struggle is not against flesh For flesh accounts for nothing While the Spirit brings forth Life". We are continuously waging a war. It is not against worldly powers as we have it now, but against our own self to decimate wordly desires and to be born into a new being. In this fight we don't wield wordly weapons, but we seek power of the Spirit. Beautiful poem dear Stephan.

Amen, brother, you've shared the truth today. We as humans will never win the war against evil here on earth, but we can claim victory in accepting the gift we are offered through Christ ... Eternal life. Opening the door to our heart and allowing Him into our life will make us winners regardless of what the world does. Blessings my friend. Bill
