You frustrate yourself if you to sweep darkness out of a room. You must turn on the Light. The two verses before verse 5 tell you more about this spiritual warfare and turning on the Light.

For though we live in the flesh, we do not wage war according to the flesh. The weapons of our warfare are not the weapons of the world. Instead, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We tear down arguments and every presumption set up against the knowledge of God; and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. ~ 2 Corinthians 10:3-5

You don’t wage war according to the flesh. You don’t try to sweep out the darkness. You have spiritual weapons with divine power to demolish the strongholds in your mind.

You built strongholds in your mind without consciously thinking about what you were doing. You don’t know what most of those strongholds are yet. They seem like reality to you. You know about some of your strongholds. You know about thoughts that creep in, thoughts the Holy Spirit brings to your attention. You don’t want to entertain those thoughts, but you can’t sweep them out. You know your thoughts. I know mine. The more you try to NOT think about them the more you think about them. They keep popping up.

Turn on the Light. The Light is Jesus Christ. He has equipped you, and He will equip you more. He gave you spiritual weapons. One weapon is seeking God. Another is prayer. When the arguments and presumptions of the world creep in, look toward Jesus. Ask Him to help you. He will tear the strongholds down. He’ll answer the lies. He’ll give you power to destroy those evil strongholds and thoughts that come from them. Stand in Christ’s presence. His Light will surround you. The more you seek Christ, the closer you stand to Him. The closer you stand to Christ, the more His Light shines in you. The more Christ’s Light shines in you, the less darkness can survive in His presence. Turn on the Light.
