Submit and Resist



Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

--James 4:7 (NIV)



Heavenly Father,



Help me not forget that, as I submit myself to be obedient to You in all things, You give me the power to resist the attacks of the enemy, and he will run from me in fear.


Help me always humbly and willingly acknowledge Your authority over me, Your power at work in me through Your Holy Spirit, and the authority that is given me in the name of Jesus, by the sacrifice He made for me.

Help me to remember that the only weapon the enemy can come against me with is his attempts to deceive me into not believing the Truth of Your Word.

But You alone have the authority over me, and it is Your Word that gives me the authority to act on Your command to resist the attacks of the devil, with the full confidence that he must flee from me.


Help me not forget that, as I submit myself to be obedient to You in all things, You give me the power to resist the attacks of the enemy, and he will run from me in fear.


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
