1 Peter 5:8
Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.
The devil will play tricks on your mind, he will oppress you until you become paralized with fear. Until you can no longer move. The Devil will find your weaknesses and exploit them. He will use every small crack in your mind, your body and your soul to weaken you. He inspires fear, sin, greed, coveteousness, etc.
Recognize when the devil is trying get a hold of you. Write down your weaknesses and keep track of them. See what it is that triggers it? Keep an eye on it for a while and see if you can recognize some patterns that are happening, this will enlighten you to a whole new level!
The devil is very sneaky. He’ll make you go around in circles, make you feel lowsy about yourself. If he knows where you are weak, he’ll try to destroy every part of it. Every part of you. You need to know when the devil is attacking you and tell him he is not allowed in your life.
Try to practice these things see how it goes? Don’t let fear dominate your life, you will just give the devil control , and we all know the devil is not in control. God is and always will be.
Matthew 4:1
[ The Temptation of Jesus ] Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted by the devil.
2 Timothy 2:26
and that they will come to their senses and escape from the trap of the devil, who has taken them captive to do his will
