War is being waged, not for land, but for a spiritual space in your heart where you can live with God alone. Advent is a time to take possession of this space.

Name those “enemies.” Recall in the letter to the Ephesians: “We do not wrestle against flesh and blood … but against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places” (6:12).
God gives you the heart of Joshua and especially the heart of Jesus, born in the silence of the night in the stable of your heart.
