A weak Spirit will draw all bad things to you, the devil is looking for a home, and when your Spirit is weak its not in a position to resist him. Now a strong Spirit will keep you prosperous, what is it to be truly prosperous? TO DO BETTER! Ignorance is every mans mountain, ignorance will make a failure, truth will give you advantage, and make you free!
What can hold you back from having a strong Spirit and deplete your Spirit, the bible is clear about what we should do! Heb 12:1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,
We are to roll the care of every weight that tries to come on us, over on the Lord, He knows what to do with it! Psa 31:15 Hour by hour I place my days in your hand, safe from the hands out to get me.
1Pe 2:11 Friends, this world is not your home, so don't make yourselves cozy in it. Don't indulge your ego at the expense of your soul.
Making time for the Lord daily is so important. Excuses will be your enemy for sure! Take the answers the Lord has for you, but don't take the care, cast it all over on to the Lord!Luk 10:39 She had a sister, Mary, who sat before the Master, hanging on every word he said.Luk 10:40 But Martha was pulled away by all she had to do in the kitchen. Later, she stepped in, interrupting them. "Master, don't you care that my sister has abandoned the kitchen to me? Tell her to lend me a hand.Luk 10:41 The Master said, "Martha, dear Martha, you're fussing far too much and getting yourself worked up over nothing.Luk 10:42 One thing only is essential, and Mary has chosen it--it's the main course, and won't be taken from her."

This such a great word of advice for each of us, faith comes from hearing the words of the Master. So we must do as Mary and sit and listen, to His every word. When tough times come, and they will, they won't seem so tough. It will be easier to forgive, love, to give, and to rest in Him. Your marriage will come through tough times, and your children will be better for you taking this path in life. This will put you over the top, it will take you to the mountain. Pro 8:34 Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) is the man who listens to me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
So the question we should be asking ourselves is, who determines all this to keep our Spirit Strong, and recognize these enemies? It is clear in scripture, Gal 6:8 For he who sows to his own flesh (lower nature, sensuality) will from the flesh reap decay and ruin and destruction, but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.
I encourage you to keep your Spirit Strong, so when adversity comes, you know you are loved, and hidden in Christ!
