Greetings! "For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh," v3 Although we are physical beings, our struggle is not - it is spiritual. The battleground is our mind. Who and what we believe will determine our responses to what we experience in life. (As a man thinks in his heart, so is he! Pr 23:7) Our actions reflect what we believe, not what we know! Because there is a difference between knowing and believing, it is important for our minds to be conformed to the Truth, rather than to the deceptions of the evil one. As we come to know the Truth, we learn to recognize falsehood. But until we choose to believe the Truth, our actions will be subject to false thinking.These are the "fortressess" or stongholds that hold us captive and keep our behaviors from reflecting the Truth of God that is within us as believers. "for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses." v4 Because this is a spiritual battle, we need Divine power to demolish these anad the Lord has given us two offensive weapons to fight with - the Sword of the Spirit, His Word, and prayer. Note Eph 6:17-18 that both are empowered by the Spirit! This is an important passage and deserves much more than I have given here.
