“For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 6 And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.” 2 Corinthians 10:3-6
“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” James 4:7
Excercizing mastery over the sinful inclinations of the flesh is esssential to overcoming victory (1 Cor. 9:27; 15:31; Rom. 6, etc.).
