Just the opposite. Like a lion with a wounded prey, our weakest moments are our most vulnerable. He is not interested in teasing you but devouring you. And the pages of history are filled with his victims.

In this current world, there are forces of good and evil. Those who are in line with God’s will and plan and those who are not. This explains almost everything. It is why we can almost certainly expect opposition even when we are doing the right thing.

We are almost completely unaware. There is an unseen Enemy that is opposing us 24/7. Paul reminded us that other than the world and its unceasing philosophies and the weakness of our flesh, this enemy is constantly opposing us.

Why would you let the devil deceive you, whispering lies with no resistance? Be aware today of his intrusion. Recognize the thoughts in your mind that are not of God and resist them in prayer. As you face any part of your day, pray a prayer of resistance, reminding the devil that he has no legal right to your life and the lives of those around you.
