But can he face down principalities, demons and spirits in the solitude of his prayer life?

Ephesians 6:12 (ESV) For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.

OH! I didn't see that you had already posted that scripture. :)

Conan the Cimmerian was a barbarian. He was chaos in human form. He was the chaos from which a new, more robust order, would spring.

He wasn't stupid, and he wasn't a fool (well, women...but what man has ever mastered that?)

When he became responsible he was very responsible. It takes a very discerning mind to understand that, when over-turning apple carts, to select which apple carts need over-turning.

Which apple carts to overturn....ask for Wisdom and it shall be granted to you by Him. Mix that in with a dose of Sun Tzu and you will know which carts, and what battle ground to upset them on.
