Tearing down the fortress

For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses (2 Cor. 10:4 NASB)

In the next series I would like to discuss our thinking compared to Gods thinking & where our focus should be.  This verse talks about the destruction of fortresses.  Sometimes the worst fortresses we fight against are in our own minds.  Somehow over the years Satan has built up a fortress in our minds where he maintains control.  God wants control over all parts of us.  That fortress could be an addiction, fear, insecurity, the past, etc. .  It is anything we allow Satan to have access to.  However, if you are a Christian, the Holy Spirit lives in you, you have Gods word, & Jesus Christ interceding on your behalf to tear down that fortress.  So tear it down, kick Satan out, tell him he has no power here & let God control it all!
