“GET OUT OF HERE, SATAN!”
_(Keep The Devil On The Run)_
TO THE BIBLE:
James 4:7 AMPC
_“... Resist the devil [stand firm against him], and he will flee from you.”_
LET’S TALK
You know, Satan doesn’t play fair; he’s always up to some tricky business. So, what do you do? Well, you’ve got to be on the offensive against him, always ready for the battle. The Bible says to resist him, but how do you do that? It’s with the Word—the sword of the Spirit! Don’t think the devil is sleeping; he’s not! The Bible says he prowls to and fro like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8).
Don’t wait for his fiery darts before putting him in check. What the devil likes to do is get your attention so that you’re always on the defensive. He wants you fighting to get your peace back, to get your health and strength back, or to get things back to normal; ever fighting to restore something; say “No!” Don’t let yourself be hemmed in such a position.
While, with your faith, you’re neutralising all the fiery darts Satan throws at you, always be on the offensive with the “Rhema” of God in your mouth. In Ephesians 6:10-16, the Apostle Paul gave a list of the protective parts of our armour. Then, in the 17th verse, he gave the only offensive tool: “the sword of the Spirit,” which is the “Rhema” of God.
Rhema is Greek for the “spoken word.” In this case, it’s your proclamation of the inspired Word of God for the hour and the season. It’s always a word said or a word in saying; otherwise, it’s not a sword; it’s not a weapon. So, always keep God’s Word on your lips; that’s your weapon to mess up the enemy’s plans and tackle any challenges that come your way!
GO DEEPER
Ephesians 6:10-17; 1 Peter 5:8-9
PRAY
_Dear Father, your Word is in my heart and in my mouth, prevailing as I speak it forth! I speak forth righteousness, wisdom, prosperity, victory, and abundance. And with the shield of faith, I extinguish and render ineffective the fiery darts, lies, tricks, and stratagems of the adversary, walking on in the victory of Christ, in Jesus’ Name. Amen._
