“Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” (James 4:7)

Scripture refers to the Enemy as a roaring lion on the prowl. And on the surface, it doesn’t look like we stand a chance. He’ll attack you through anxiety, frustration, anger, sadness, and confusion.

The good news is his attack isn’t a sneak attack. He is roaring. You can hear him coming for you.

The question is… how do you win against a roaring lion?

Here’s the key: You don’t run; you resist.

You stand your ground in Christ and ask for His help because only He can protect you from the Enemy’s attacks.

Alone, you’re an easy target. But when you stand in Christ’s authority, that’s when the Enemy has to run from YOU.
