In many of the Psalms, including Psalms 38-43, David fought against enemies within himself (sin and discouragement) and enemies outside of himself.
So it is with us too. We fight with our own sin and discouragement and the devil with his enticements and evil ways of thinking.
But God is using these struggles to strengthen our faith and conform us to His image even though it is often not a pleasant experience. And He has not left us without a way to fight the spiritual battle we
encounter daily.
As we remain "steadfast in the faith" (1 Peter 5:9) in obedience to the truth of God's Word, He helps us to resist the devil and live lives that bring Him glory and honor.
