A fortress is a term, best comprehended from the military viewpoint. It is a fortification or a palace which is fortified and introduces stiff protection from any assaulting enemy powers. When somebody is in a fortification, they are moderately protected from enemy powers. The Apostle Paul utilizes the word in a non-literal sense in our verse above to portray fortified places in individuals' brains which are difficult to enter.
It is vital to take note of that in 2 Corinthians 10:4, these spiritual fortresses are in the brain, as obviously found in verse 5 which calls them contentions and thoughts. Actually, the fortresses are sentiments, purposes of perspectives, world-sees, mindsets, and so forth that somebody for a situation may use to fortify his or her confidence in safeguarding their situation against any rival.
Fortresses in urban communities or individuals' lives are not some wicked spots where occultic exercises happen or other comparable devilish exercises. It is in the brains of the general population. It is the thing that individuals use as the motivations to dismiss the possibility of God for example or view the Gospel as absurd. Considerably more imperatively, we may likewise have fortifications in our own lives.
It might be the way we feel that is the best enemy of our advance. There is more spiritual fight in our psyches than huge numbers of us understand. Utilize God's weapons to pull down fortresses in your life, and in people around you.
Would we be able to win spiritual fights utilizing licentious weapons? What are a portion of these lewd techniques that you can consider?
Ephesians 6:13-18 gives us God's weapons. You will instantly understand that they may appear to be absurd to us at first sight. Did you see that verbal confrontations are not some portion of them to pull down these fortifications( licentious techniques)? Trust and utilize God's strategies. This is one reason why petition is the foundation of evangelism however we won't not perceive any reason why that would work. Thus, that mountain and agony in your life won't not require control for a supernatural occurrence. It may very well require an adjustment in the way you think! Restore your psyche with the Word!

The spiritual strengths help us in battles to face any attack provoked by Satnas, because those strengths allow us to be strong and to break down any spiritual wall. Thanks for sharing

Thank you @evadiva for sharing this. If we win in our mind (within), we'll surely win outside. Every battle the enemy ensues is to hold our mind captive and to hold us within the chains of fear. When we renew our minds in God's words, WE WIN!

Strengths are the first thing that we must tear down from the minds of people, to be able to teach a full gospel, if we do not knock down the strongholds first, the message will not stay in their minds. the word of God says in 2 Corinthians 10: 5

Thanks @evadiva for sharing this nice piece. As per spiritual strongholds, 1 John 4:4 provides us with the right mindset, with which we can live triumphantly, as believers... It says:
Thus, we all must operate from this point of view over every handiwork of the enemy.
Kind regards.
