James 4:7-10 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. (8) Draw nigh to God, and he ill draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. (9) Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. (10) Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.
The world is full of temptation and Satan is behind every bit of it. I believe that he knows that his time on Earth is short and he is busy trying to wreck every life and destroy every soul that he possibly can. The truth is that Satan hates mankind.
It might seem strange, especially to those who follow him so closely, but he even hates those who worship him. He knows what his end will be and it is his desire to destroy as many people as he can before he comes to that disastrous end.
The next few devotionals will be some scriptures that will help you to resist the devil so that he will flee from you. The first step of course is to "submit yourselves to God". If you are truly to resist the devil you need to take the first step in submitting to God by accepting Jesus as your Savior and allowing Him to be Lord of your life. You can only draw near to God, through His only begotten Son, Jesus.
I hope you pay close attention to the next few devotionals and they strengthen you in your daily battles in your own spiritual warfare.
