Ex.23:22 (b) I will be an enemy to your enemies and will oppose those who oppose you.
Numbers 33:55 If you will not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you then those who you let remain, shall be thorns in your sides (relationships) and pricks in your eyes(vision), and trouble you in the land where you live.
When we identify the inhabitants (enemies) of our land it is important to note they are not from without but they are found within our own soul.
We are in a battle that has already been won by Jesus but now we come to experience the victory as we confront our enemies in the understanding of our true identity in Christ.
The enemies are giants that have Intermingled and embedded themselves into our personality while magnifying themselves through lies; these are attitudes and an old mentality that lives in our land.
They are not us, but they do live in us they must be confronted through the power of the Holy Spirit, destroying all their memories (pictures) Numbers 33:51 and remove them completely from our land .

Ex.23:22 (b) I will be an enemy to your enemies and will oppose those who oppose you.
When we understand that these enemies are in our land (soul) we will not be intimidated by them nor allow the accuser to use them against us, but we will with the word of truth drive them out of our thoughts desires and feelings while finding perfect peace for our soul.
