The Devil Isn't Superstition

Many Christians aren't aware, or try to ignore the ongoing war raging on in the unseen realm and in our daily lives. But Jesus didn't tell us to ignore or disbelieve Satan's existence. He told us to “Resist the devil and he will flee” (James 4:7).

After recommitting my life, I have had both the taste of healing, but also the wrath of the enemy as he has used a household member to attack me in non-physical and subtle ways, but ways I can see (I'm not that sensitive and will at first try to give an earthly explanation to unusual behaviour). Satan doesn't like to lose a soul (in this case, it was me) and I now pose a threat to other claims he has likely made. I didn't realize that when I recommitted my life to Christ, I'd be entering the spiritual battlefield so soon.
