How Can People Resist Satan?
Q: How can people resist Satan?
The first step to resisting Satan is to be submitted to God. If we don’t submit to God to walk in complete obedience, to be humble and to belong to Him, we are no match for Satan. One-third of God’s angels couldn’t resist him, and even now, no matter who you think you are, if you are no longer submitted to God, you won’t be able to resist Satan’s power of deceptions, temptations or destruction. While you’re submitted to God, you must know and speak His word, know your rights and power in God, use God’s word to rebuke the enemy, and always have on the full armor of God, always watchful and vigilant, never isolate yourself from the church, abounding in praise and prayer, never giving Satan a foothold, even in your mind.
