When we are at war, the whole nation knows about it. Enlisted soldiers can recognize the enemy through their uniform, however there are times when a suicide bomber is not recognizable. In this case the soldier has little or no protection.
In the spiritual world, there is a similar situation where the enemy is unseen. No matter how we look for him, we will not see him. He is invisible. So how do you fight an unseen enemy?
In the real world, it is impossible to fight an unseen enemy. But in the spiritual world, it is different. For instance, when Satan spoke through Peter, Jesus rebuked Satan (Mt.16:23) and the devil left him. Likewise, when we are tempted by the devil, we have the power of prayer and the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God to protect us from the evil one.
