Since the battle is spiritual before anything else. We need to accumulate a knowledge of spiritual weapons. Humility is power over the enemy. It is to get out of the way spiritually and to become an avenue for God's power to move in you.
Here's a powerful prayer. Pray this - with great focus and intention, slowly, pondering each part - for yourself, or substitute someone else's name in it.
"For the glory of Your name, O Lord, preserve my life. Because of Your faithfulness, bring me out of this distress."
Psalm 143:11
When we pray the scriptures, we pray the Holy Spirit's inspired words.
Make note of who you pray for and remember that ultimately the Lord's plans and intentions are infinitely higher than ours, and with complete knowledge of what is truly best in every circumstance.
We have the joy & responsibility to act and cooperate with God as faithful stewards, taking action in humility & faith - depending on God to bring the results which best move us forward.
