The Battle is Real

It's sometimes easy to forget that our fight against Satan is real and ongoing. It's so easy to get caught up with what's going on in the physical "real world," that we can end up ignoring or even disbelieving in the spiritual world. We might even forget that Satan and his forces of evil exist because we don't see them directly, which is exactly what he wants. Satan wants us to trust only in our eyes and other physical senses, completely ignoring our spiritual sense, because he wants us to forget that we're at war. And of course he would want us to forget that. There are few better ways to win a war than by convincing the enemy to stop fighting, and we're not likely to keep fighting this war if we forget about it.

It's important to remember that we actually are fighting against the devil and his evil spirits, that all of this is real, and that our souls are at stake. Satan wants to make us forget about this war or think it isn't real. That's why it's so important to remember that it is.
