James 4:7
Therefore, submit to GOD. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
Hebrews 4: 12
For the WORD of GOD is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and joint and marrow, and is the discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
The devil hates it when we submit to GOD. When we yield our members to obedience to GOD, the devil cannot touch us,we have all the power of GOD to resist the devil and drive him far from us. Many Christians appear powerless because they do no submit to GOD. Submission takes courage, to admit that you are powerless without GOD is a great leap of faith. When we submit to GOD, we can say in great confidence, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
JESUS resisted the devil with the Word of the LORD; know the Scripture and use it to resist the devil, he cannot stand against the power of the Word. The Word of GOD is a weapon that always hits its mark; it is living, sharp and a discerner. In Christ JESUS there is conviction of sin, but there is no condemnation; there is discernment of thought, word and deed, but there is no condemnation, just the opportunity to change.
USE THE WORD OF GOD TO RESIST THE DEVIL AND HE WILL FLEE FROM YOU.
P.S. This is just a little funny though from me: the devil is a flea, so send him fleeing - swat with the Sword.
