Philippians 4:6  Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

When we cry out to God for help, God will help us, then we rejoice in The Word God brings to us and the devil, who has sent fearful and depressing thoughts to our mind, will flee from us.

James 4:7  Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

If we take in thoughts sent from the devil, he will eat us alive.

I Peter 5:7-8  Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:  Whom resist stedfast in the faith,
