Alright, let's cut the charismatic make-you-feel-so-good-exaggerated lingo...

Reality: I was praying when I saw a vision of me sitting on a horse slaying (with a sword) the enemies coming from all sides. The horse remained in peace and I fought sitting without getting up.

The enemy's goal is to get you to come off your seat of identity to fight him in his earthly realm. Most of life's circumstances are meant to distract you and to get you off your seat. Once you leave the seat, you are no longer in faith. And all the flaming arrows can hit you (Eph 6:16).

Our goal is to stay in our seat, and fight sitting. It might seem effortless, but all of our flesh will scream, wanting us to get off the seat so that it's more comfortable & logical in a fight.

This is why we are to strive to enter into that rest (Heb 4:11). The real fight is not against the enemy. It is to fight to stay in our seat of identity. When we are seated, we are in faith. When we are in faith, nothing is impossible for us (Matt 17:20).
