The Battlefield

More comes as we recognize lies and replace them with truth (2 Corinthians 10:3- 6). We are at war. It is an unseen battle that plays itself out in our physical world. It is a battle for our minds, for the way we think. What we think matters immensely because our thoughts determine our choices and actions. Therefore, the enemy’s primary weapon to steal, kill, and destroy is to corrupt our thinking, to get us to believe lies. Lies are at the heart of all that is destructive in our lives. Thankfully, God has given us His power to renew our minds, to identify the lies we have embraced, and to make every thought obedient to Jesus. Confession is a key tool to bring our thoughts into alignment with what is true and with Jesus as the source of truth. With the help of the Holy Spirit, we use confession to call out a lie and replace it by speaking the truth of God’s Word.
