"Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you." James 4.7
What good is it to surrender your life to God and forget about the devil, thinking that he will do the same?
Those who are born of the Spirit not only resist the devil, but they also advance against him to see free those that are trapped in his claws.
"If you were Abraham's children," said Jesus, "then you would do what Abraham did." John 8:39
With that answer, Jesus defined who are truly God's children. God's children do the work of God and the devil's children do the work of the devil. Being righteous, using your Christian faith and being merciful characterize the attitude of a child of God. But the practice of injustice, sin and selfishness characterize the the attitude of the devil's children. The children of the devil obey their own will.
