 spiritual bondage is not meant to be a part of the Christian life and I think sometimes we've accepted the idea that it is and that's a lie from the enemy. Trials, yes. We'll all face trials. Persecution, yes. We'll all face persecution. Heartache, tragedy, temptation, we will all face that. But spiritual defeat that is inner defeat, lack of peace, lack of joy, lack of love, lack of the influence of the Spirit, no my friend, that was never meant to be a part of the Christian life. And some believers sadly even have some sort of validation from the fact that they're suffering because they think that the fact that they're being attacked so much is proof that they're spiritual. When in fact the Spirit feels Christian, the one who walks according to the will of God knows victory is theirs and that spiritual bondage is not a part of their life.
