1 Peter 5:8,9 Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings. Satan is real. He and his power are intended to harm. But rather than spending our time worrying about him, lets resist him when we are tempted and focus on Jesus. Hes the one who won the big showdown at Calvary, triumphing over Satan. He took Satans greatest tool and disarmed it. Now we can resist and Satan will flee. Prayer: Thank you, Almighty God, for sending Jesus to break Satans stranglehold over us. Through the Saviors death you have assured me that mine wont be the end of our relationship, but the beginning of life with you. Today, however, I ask that you help me especially resist Satans power over my life in the following ways... Through Jesus I pray. Amen.
