Putting the Devil on the Run

“Putting the Devil on the Run”

Submit yourselves therefore to God.  Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
James 4: 7

In trying times we find ourselves in battle with satan.  He would like to see everything in our life go wrong and for us to fail at everything we put our minds to.  In James chapter 4 verse 7, the Bible tells us that if we resist the devil he will flee (when we submit ourselves to God).  As children of God we have the authority to defeat all of satan’s attacks through the name of Jesus.

The lies of satan are never ending. He will attack you on all sides.  Satan will attack your body, emotions, mind, and your strong will for everything you have and want in life.  He can creep up behind you and whisper in your ear all the negative things you could ever imagine.  He can even make you think your life is no longer worth living and that God has forsaken you.  When he does attack, always know that you CAN be victorious over him.

The devil can be anywhere at any time, in any shape or form, and he will come after anyone.  Although you have the ability to make him flee from you with verbal command, your actions must go along with the words that you speak.

Start following the Lord in new levels of obedience while releasing your faith through speaking and praying the word. Be blessed!
