Memorization
Learn these three verses by heart:
- Ephesians 6:12 — For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
- James 4:7 — Be subject therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
- 1 Peter 5:8-9 — Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Withstand him steadfast in your faith.
