"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children." Hosea 4:6

We MUST learn Gods ways, His Word. We can not go into a battle without weapons, and a stragedy against the enemy. Not if we expect to win. The scriptures tell us to "count the cost" of a battle before going in also. There are going to be disappointments. Discourgements. ..people will turn against you for the gospel sake. It may not always be so clear cut that is what is going on. You have to KNOW the battle plan, to realize the enemys attacks. He is out to destroy you any way he can. Whether he uses other people, your own flesh, worldly things, etc......... You MUST keep your eyes on the prize--the high calling of Christ Jesus. Remember this life is temporary, and everything is a battle field for your souls salvation. Dont allow these temporary things to sway you from your goal . KEEP focused on the battle. Remember GREATER is HE who is IN you......... .than he that is in the world. He will NEVER leave you nor forsake you.......even to the end of the world. Read :Ephesians 6:11.
