Overcoming the power of Satan

John 10:10 "The thief does not come except to steal and to kill and to destroy. I have come that they may have life and that they may have it more abundantly."

How do we take back what Satan steals from us? Good Question! To be redeemed from the power of Satan we must constantly strengthen ourselves in GOD. If you have not already asked Jesus to be your Lord and Savior, this will be your first step in overcoming Satan.

Pray this prayer: "Father, come into my heart. Forgive me all my sins and transgressions. I acknowledge You as my God, my Lord and Savior, and that Your son, Jesus Christ, died on the cross and rose again three days later, saving me for an eternal life with you. Give me your heart and strength in my times of need and be with me always. In Christs name, Amen."

You will begin to live as Christ would want you to as He gently convicts you of wrongdoings, sins, pride and the like...you are like a babe learning, it takes time but stay strong and keep your new faith alive, read your bible, pray daily, spend time with GOD as if he is your best friend.

The next step in overcoming is to know your enemy. How do you do this? Know which tactics the enemy, Satan, uses against us..some are so subtle you wouldn't even think he would use them, but he does. And it is for us to know how to defeat him through Christ.

Some of the many things Satan will use against us are: Confusion, Doubt, Strife, Uncertainty, Arguments, Indifference, Callousness, Coldness, Aloofness, Bitterness, Lack of Control, Rage, Anger, Cynicism, Discord.
