The underlying principle of all Satan's tactics is deception. He is a crafty and clever camouflager.

I am engaged in spiritual warfare every day. I must never let down my guard—I must keep armed.

The Holy Spirit will remain with every believer right to the end. This thought has encouraged me a thousand times in these dark days when satanic forces are at work.

Evil is present to cleverly disguise itself as good. Evil is present to control and deceive us.

The world's sewage system threatens to contaminate the stream of Christian thought. Satan will contest every hour you spend in Bible reading or prayer.

We have become so tolerant and accepting of the world's ways that it is hard for many in the church to notice the sin much less answer how it crept in. The church is to be in the world, but worldliness is not to infiltrate the church.

Satan is the sower of compromise—leaving a bit of God's truth into the dirty rags of sin. Satan is the commander in deceit, Satan is the ringleader in rebellion against the faithful. Satan is the sly serpent of temptation. Satan is the false hope of security. Satan is the great pretender. Satan is the great spoiler of everything good. And Satan wants to destroy you.

The Bible teaches that you have three enemies . . . the devil . . . the world . . . the flesh.

It is not the temptations you have, but the decision you make about them that counts.

Revelation is a pastor's letter to his floundering flock, an urgent telegram bearing a brilliant battle plan for a people at war.

Every stage of life has its own temptations and dangers, and Satan will do all he can to exploit them . . .the time to prepare is now, not when it arrives.

The devil doesn't need to invent any new temptations; the old ones work as well as they ever have.
