But we should be aware that just because we've won a battle, doesn't mean the war is over. Our flesh, and the enemy, will always be seeking new ways to tempt, and attack us.
It is a fight, which we must continue, but we CAN be overcomers by the blood of the Lamb, by the Word of God, and by the Spirit of God to recognize the attacks against us.
