You resist the devil.

You resist the devil.
- Pastor Ashish Mathews

James 4:7
Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

Stand up against the devil. Oppose Him. Do not accept or receive anything from the devil. This verse doesn't say, submit to the devil, it says submit to God, resist the devil and he will flee from you.

Many people are waiting for God to resist the devil. God is not going to resist the devil. Jesus has done everything that needs to be done as far the devil is concerned. He has defeated all demonic forces and all hell. Jesus said, all authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. As the head of the church, He has given us His authority by giving us His name, the name of Jesus. God won't resist the devil, you have to resist him. If you don't resist the devil, he will never flee.

Say 'No' to the devil and to everything that comes from his household. Sin, sickness, fear, worry, pride, selfishness and everything else. Refuse to accept anything that is of the devil. Oppose. Resist. Stand up against it. In the name of Jesus, resist him. You have authority in the name of Jesus. Speak and command the devil to leave and he will flee.

"Satan, I resist you in the name of Jesus. I refuse to accept you or anything that comes from you. You are under my feet. Jesus defeated you and you have no authority over me or anything that concerns me. Get out in Jesus name."
