Silence and warfare

I want to share this verse from my morning devotional. It's so true and so hard to battle in those silent times with God!

"Spending time alone with Me can be a difficult discipline, because it goes against the activity addiction of this age. You may appear to be doing nothing, but actually you are participating in battles going on within spiritual realms. You are waging war—not with the weapons of the world, but with heavenly weapons, which have divine power to demolish strongholds. Living close to Me is a sure defense against evil." -Jesus Calling Devotional
