Proverbs 3:5-6 states: “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy paths.”

Then Ephesians 6:10 tells us: “ Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.”

These are two very powerful Scriptures instructing us and giving us knowledge about where our strength will come from. We are to Trust God's strength and ability and not our own. Isaiah 26:3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee. If our mind is on the things of the Lord and we get that into our spirits and not other things, He will help us through whatever warfare the devil may want to throw at us.
