VII. Application
What is spiritual warfare?  How are you experiencing that in your life?
In Exodus 15, the Lord is described as a warrior.  How does that change who He is in your life?  How does that change the way that you live your life?
Is facing spiritual opposition/warfare and going through difficult situations the same thing?  Why or why not?
“Often times when God allows us to go through difficulties in life, He is actually fighting on our behalf.”  What do you think this statement means?  How does that apply to you?
