Resist the devil

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

When the devil comes on the scene of our daily lives, he likes to mess things up. We must not give in to the lies, sins, temptations, and other evil acts.  If we resist him, and turn to God, he will flee from us.

Hebrews 2:14-15
"Since the children have flesh and blood, He too shared in their humanity so that by His death He might break the power of him who holds the power of death-that is, the devil- and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death."


Jesus overcame sin for us on the cross, so that now we are no longer slaves to sin. We do not have to fear death, because if we put our trust in Jesus, we have an eternal life awaiting us. Jesus broke that chain of sin and death for us.

Matthew 7:13-14
"Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it."

We, as believers of Christ Jesus, have entered the narrow road. We must never turn from it, because as nice as the wide road may seem, it leads to destruction. Always remain in Jesus. Never turn from Him.







Jesus sees our sins perfectly, but His love for us NEVER FAILS!
Even though we fail Him day after day, He still loves us beyond comprehension.
