Warning Against Idolatry

2 Corinthians 6 (NIV) 17-18 17 17 Therefore,”Come out from them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you.” 18 And, “I will be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.”

Paul is VERY strong on this subject he starts out with do not be yoked together with unbelievers.
A yoke is a frame fitting the neck and shoulders of a person,something that couples or binds together; a bond or tie.
Light and darkness have nothing in common, believers and non-believers have nothing in common. Not saying that we should not be a witness to them however one should not live with them. That before you do go to them or talk with them be sure you are protected against them. One needs the Holy Spirit and one need the word.

Prayer is important before going into battle one needs to spend time with the Lord and listen to what He is saying to you.
There may be places that one should not go and if possible never go alone, a prayed up companion is always good. Even having a group of intercessor praying while this is going on. You do not need to be there doubting or hoping. You need to believe without a doubt the Lord is going before you, that he has ones back. No weapon formed against you will prosper Isaiah 54:17 (NIV) no weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and this is their vindication from me,” declares the Lord. If one is going into the enemies camp one had better be ready for any thing for the fiery darts will come.

Last however not the least is the Armor of God Ephesians 6: 10-20 (NIV) 10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people 19 Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.

One needs to be prayed up dress up and ready for battle this is where the in season and out of season comes in one needs to be ready all the time for the enemy is John 10:10 (NIV) The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. Our enemy satan [the accuser] the devil [the slanderer] is out to destroy your walk to steal your joy and to kill you testimony. So we need to be aware and ready all the time.
