Our Spiritual Battle

In this life there are many battles. There have been battles throughout history that we can read about. But what about OUR Spiritual battles?

(Psa 19:12)  Who can understand his errors? Cleanse me from secret faults.
(Psa 19:13)  Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; Let them not have dominion over me. Then I shall be blameless, And I shall be innocent of great transgression.
(Psa 19:14)  Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, O LORD, my strength and my Redeemer.

(Psa 90:8)  You have set our iniquities before You, Our secret sins in the light of Your countenance.
(Psa 90:9)  For all our days have passed away in Your wrath; We finish our years like a sigh.
(Psa 90:10)  The days of our lives are seventy years; And if by reason of strength they are eighty years, Yet their boast is only labor and sorrow; For it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
(Psa 90:11)  Who knows the power of Your anger? For as the fear of You, so is Your wrath.
(Psa 90:12)  So teach us to number our days, That we may gain a heart of wisdom.
Luk 22:31  And the Lord said, "Simon, Simon! Indeed, Satan has asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat. 
Luk 22:32  But I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, strengthen your brethren." 
(Mar 14:53)  And they led Jesus away to the high priest; and with him were assembled all the chief priests, the elders, and the scribes.
(Mar 14:54)  But Peter followed Him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest. And he sat with the servants and warmed himself at the fire.
Psa 7:1  A Meditation Of David, Which He Sang to the LORD Concerning the Words of Cush, a Benjamite. O LORD my God, in You I put my trust; Save me from all those who persecute me; And deliver me, 
Psa 7:2  Lest they tear me like a lion, Rending me in pieces, while there is none to deliver. 

Psa 7:11  God is a just judge, And God is angry with the wicked every day. 
Psa 7:12  If he does not turn back, He will sharpen His sword; He bends His bow and makes it ready. 
Psa 7:13  He also prepares for Himself instruments of death; He makes His arrows into fiery shafts. 

2 Chr 20:15; Jer  Mighty warrior; Ps 45: 3-5
Read Eph 6:12-15
