The Lord is a Warrior!
To him who overcomes, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne.
Revelation 3:21 NIV

Follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses
1 Timothy 6:11,12 KJV

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm.
Ephesians 6:10-13 NASB

Meditation 5/18 - 5/24 He loves a humble spirit ESV
"A contrite and humble spirit"
For thus says the One who is high and lifted up,
who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy:
"I dwell in the high and holy place,
and also with him who is of
a contrite and lowly spirit,
to revive the spirit of the lowly,
and to revive the heart of the contrite.
For I will not contend forever,
nor will I always be angry;
for the spirit would grow faint before me,
and the breath of life that I made.
Because of the iniquity of his
unjust gain I was angry,
I struck him; I hid my face and was angry,
but he went on backsliding
in the way of his own heart.
I have seen his ways, but I will heal him;
I will lead him and restore comfort
to him and his mourners,
creating the fruit of the lips.
Peace, peace, to the far and
to the near," says the LORD,
"and I will heal him.
Isaiah 57:15-19 ESV
