Warfare is a military term in military parlance that connotes and denotes a fight where there is victory and defeat, life or death on either side of the spectrum (Matt. 11:12)
The whole of life is a battlefield, especially for the Christian pilgrim. We live in a sinful world that is completely under the authority of the devil. We are in a warfare where our senses are continually under assault and attack from the hounds of hell (2 Cor. 10:3-5) the primary battle field is the mind. The mind is the place for revelation and situations, the word and the world. Both God and the devil can speak to us through our mind.
To win this inexorable battle, the challenge is that we must be constantly submissive to the will of God. Unfortunately, man finds it hard, if he is walking in the flesh, to submit to the will of God. Spiritual discipline, of necessity, is a key that adequately prepares us to fight the good fight of faith.
