We not only fight against our flesh and blood, but we are fighting demonic forces. The bible says that we can combat that by submitting to God, scripture and prayer. It's so important that we are always self-aware and read the room. We have to go where we are celebrated and not tolerated. The enemy has his team, and we have to be sure we are around the right people that will go to war with us when it's time to pray and speak scripture towards the enemy.
