The word of God abides in you, And you have overcome the wicked one - 1 John 2:14(b).
God's Word is the sword of the spirit which we can use like a sword to fight against Satan. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God - Ephesians 6:17. For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart - Hebrews 4:12.
Jesus overcame all the temptations of devil by the Word of God. Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God’” - Mathew 4:4. Jesus said to him, “It is written again, ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God’ - Mathew 4:7. Then Jesus said to him, “Away with you, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve’” - Mathew 4:10. Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and ministered to Him - Mathew 4:11.
Let us overcome the devil with the word of God like Jesus. They may know the truth, and that they may come to their senses and escape the snare of the devil - 2 Timothy 2:25,26. You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free - John 8:32. Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you - James 4:7.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, Help us to overcome the devil by Your powerful Word that is shaper than any two- edged sword. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
