How do you fight your battles? Jesus fought with solitude. Included in that time in the desert was prayer, fasting, and the power of God's word. We all fight for something: our dignity, marriage, our job, and friendships. How often do we fight for freedom in our relationship with God? By practicing solitude, we engage in a battle with the enemy that we will always win in Jesus name!
