The devil is real- believe it !

He is a deceiver who attacks your mind with lies. He is a destroyer who attacks your will with pride. And he is an accuser who attacks your heart with accusations.

The devil is fighting a losing battle in a war God already won. So he fights like a loser and covertly attacks God’s kids.

How do we fight against a losing covert enemy? We don’t fight for victory. We fight from victory. We don’t fight in the dark. We fight in the light.

We fight knowing our enemy is real and powerful. We don’t fight alone. We fight united. We fight by humbly receiving the gift of salvation. We fight with awareness of our playbook: God’s Word. We win with confession. C.S. Lewis, said it like this, “We do not come to God as bad people trying to become good people; we come as rebels to lay down our arms.”

“Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.”

‭‭James‬ ‭4:7‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
