Strength For The BattleSample

The Battleground of the Mind

You will remember that the location where Jesus was crucified was called Golgotha, which means "place of the skull." If we will be effective in spiritual warfare, the first field of conflict where we must learn warfare is the battleground of the mind; i.e., the "place of the skull." Indeed, the territory of the uncrucified thought life is the beachhead of satanic assault in our lives. To defeat the devil, we must be crucified in the place of the skull. We must be renewed in the spirit of our minds!

Gracious Father, You have called me out of darkness into Your marvelous light, and for this I give You thanks and praise! Please continually crucify my "old man" that I might be born afresh of Your Spirit, always and in everything, to the glory of Your name! Amen.
