Numbers 7:1-89; Proverbs 4:1-27; Mark 15:1-23
Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. James 4:7 NKJV
Satan is a formable adversary, a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. The believer’s defense is the Word of God in us. The key to victory is not only knowing the Word, but applying it and obeying what it says. Two men in the Old Testament were killed by a lion and specifically it says they disobeyed the word of the Lord (1 Kgs. 13:26; 20:36). There are acts or attitudes that believers allow in their lives that give Satan an advantage. Disobedience exhibited
through a lack of forgiveness, prolonged anger, pride, and bitterness. Obeying God’s Word will protect us from Satan’s attacks and perfect His Son in us. —Gary McBride
When we walk with the Lord in the light of His Word,
What a glory He sheds on our way! —J. Sammis
