John,

I think that if a believer strives to feed the spirit, keep his/her focus on Christ, remain in submission to Christ, that believer does well.

As far as fighting the devil, my thoughts are that we don't have to fight the devil because he's already been defeated. We are told in Ephesians 6:11 to stand against the wiles (schemes) of the devil, not fight, but stand. Why? Because our position is in Christ at the right hand of the throne of God in the spirit realm!

My understanding of 2 Corinthians Chapter 4 is that the entire chapter is talking about ministry.

I have broken this chapter down into 3 Chapter Outlines in my Bible as such:

2 Corinthians 4:1-6 gives us the philosophy of ministry.

2 Corinthians 4:7-15 talks about the plan in ministry.

2 Corinthians 4:16-18 is the perception of ministry.

But you are correct about feeding the spirit and not the flesh. We are to deny our fleshly desires if we want to be disciples of Jesus Christ. Feeding the spirit is what produces growth in the believer. It also shows our love for Christ!
