BIBLE TEXT: James 4:7-10 “Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.”

Bible Text : James 4:7 “Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.”
One Teaching Idea: (1 Sentence or Less)
Satan knows that as long as he can stimulate human pride, he can delay God’s plan, even if only temporarily.
But as powerful as Satan is, his only power over believers is in his powerful temptations.
We can resist the Devil, and he will flee from us. Conversely, a lack of resistance will practically guarantee ongoing harassment by Satan
Cross Reference: 1 Peter 5:6-9 “Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.”
1st Point
One Application: Once we have identified the Devil as our enemy, we need to understand who he is and how he operates in order to effectively resist him.
The Devil’s primary purpose is to separate man from God.
Destined for destruction, he wants to take as much of creation with him as he possibly can.
