You've got to realize that it's the devil who steals, kills, and destroys. He's the enemy you've got to deal with.

It's not your brother-in-law, it's not your son-in-law, and it's not your mother-in-law you're fighting.

You're not fighting against flesh and blood! You can't beat on the devil with your fists. This is a spiritual fight that you can only win with the Word of God!

You can war all night, beat yourself, get all sweaty, and everything else. The devil will just sit there and laugh at you. If you want to dance around, I'm all for it, but use the Word of God with it. 

I don't want to dampen your fire or enthusiasm; I want you to have victory when you fight the devil. Stay aligned with the Word of God. Don't be like some who are getting so far out, they're getting into error.

Look at James:
If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
(James 1:5)
Confess, "I'm not a 'dodo' anymore. I've got the wisdom of God."

Say it again.

You need to say it until you start believing it. You need to hear your own voice say it. The more you say it, the more you believe it.

It is godly wisdom and prayer that will help you defeat your true enemy...the devil. So what are you waiting for? Start fighting him with prayer and with the Word of God!
