The battleground for spiritual warfare is in one word: truth.
As an angel of light, Satan lies to God's people. The battle is going on right now in the mind of every person reading this.
We get victory by following Jesus' example in battling Satan. In Matthew 4, Satan tempted Christ with lies. Make these stones into bread... (v.3). Cast Yourself down from the temple... (v.6).
In response to each taunt, Jesus named the lie and inserted the truth. Jesus said, you say this, but God says this.
~ James MacDonald
Although Satan is powerful, he's a weakling when faced with Scripture. He's unimpressed with our incantations or the clever things we say, but he'll run from God's Word that lives and abides forever.
It's God's truth that sets you free.
Here's the goal: when Satan lies to you about spiritual issues that undermine your confidence and security in Christ Jesus, name the lie and insert God's truth.
