Satan and his demons hound and harass the believer in Jesus on a daily basis. But, we are comforted in knowing that God, who is in us, is greater than the forces of evil around us (1 John 4:4), and He will help us to repel the enemy’s attacks. However…Satan never quits. He’ll be back! So, we must always keep our guard up!

 

1 Peter 5:8-9

Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. 9 But resist him, firm in your faith.

 

Ephesians 6:11-13

11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm.

 

“Satan is active on the earth today, involved in human affairs. In fact, the whole world is under his control (1 John 5:19). God has given Satan authority on the earth for a while, and God will one day take back that control. In the meantime, anyone living on planet Earth is subject to the devil’s actions. And we must keep our guard up against him.” ~ David Jeremiah

 

The Lord bless you and keep you…
