2 Corinthians 10:5 We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God and take every thought captive to obey Christ

Remain in control, while you surrender all to Me. The enemy seeks to control your time, thoughts, words, and actions. Do not give him anything. Watch for all the tactics he uses to steal you away from inner conversations with Me. He knows that if he can bait your thoughts, then he can draw you away from the protective Truth that comes from constant fellowship with Me. Fight him like you fight to walk through an opposing current in a river. Do not let his bait carry you away. Desire conversation with Me enough to fight for it. 2 Corinthians 10:5 We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ 1 Peter 5:8 Be serious! Be alert! Your adversary the Devil is prowling around like a roaring lion, looking for anyone he can devour. 9 Resist him and be firm in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are being experienced by your fellow believers throughout the world.
