And it can leave some nasty scars at times. And, most times it changes our lives forever.<\/p>\n<p>And there can be times when we&#8217;re in a battle, that we feel like laying down, curling up into a ball and wishing the world would just go away. This is natural and normal for our flesh to react this way.<\/p>\n<p>But there is one thing for sure. And that is that God wants us to have victory in our lives. And He has given us exactly what we need in order to have that victory!<\/p>\n<p>But it&#8217;s spiritual warfare and spiritual victory that we pursue. We are not in a battle with man. We are not at war with governments or anything tangible.<\/p>\n<p>We are at war with demonic powers and principalities. <i>These<\/i>\u00a0are the things that lash out at us. <i>These<\/i>\u00a0are the things that claw at us, trying desperately to take us down.
