It is not negotiable, according to the author, if you must walk in victory over Satan, you must fully understand your identification with Christ in every stage of His redemptive work.

This new status the author explains, makes you righteous, a real son of God with His nature, life, and everything He is available to you. Translated into the kingdom of God, the author reveals that, you are no longer under the devil’s control. As a peculiar treasure, you are bought with a price and belong to royalty, chosen to showcase God’s praises on earth.

Be Watchful
Only by consistently remaining in the position of watching can we discern the tricks of the devil. The author emphasizes the importance of vigilance against the devil’s tactics, stating, “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.”
The devil employs tricks and deception rather than raw power, with the author noting, “We are dealing with a being who is an embodiment of tricks.” Despite the devil’s attempts to deceive and accuse, the author urges you to maintain your faith, asserting, “Your faith will translate you from the kingdom of sickness into that of divine health.”
Therefore, the key to overcoming the devil’s schemes lies in unwavering faith, as the author notes, “This is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.”
He also warns against falling into Satan’s “Night-Traps” through dreams. He emphasizes the dangers of putting too much faith in dreams, stating, “Beware of the devil’s night traps.” The author discourages interpreting every dream as a divine revelation, cautioning that many have been deceived by the enemy’s tricks.
Instead, the focus is on dreaming Bible dreams rooted in God’s promises, asserting, “Your dream must have its roots in the Bible, or it has no future.” The author passionately encourages embracing dreams of a great future aligned with God’s plans, emphasizing the power of Bible-backed dreams that guarantee success and fulfillment.
Keep Guard Over Your Mind
Guard your mind! The author emphasizes the importance of protecting your mind, stating, “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” Your mind is a battleground, and the enemy seeks to capture it, as the author warns, “The enemy cannot reach you except through your mind.”
Recognize the spiritual significance, as the author says, “To be spiritually minded is life and peace,” contrasting it with the dangers of being “carnally minded.” He warns you to be cautious of depressive thoughts, as they can block your access to God’s presence and lead to destructive consequences.
The prescription for depression is joy, and the author urges, “Rejoice in the Lord always,” emphasizing the transformative power of joy in the Christian journey. Keep your mind aligned with God’s Word, for as the author states, “What you think makes your tomorrow.”

The author underscores the significance of faith, declaring that your faith is your fortress against the devil’s attacks. Quoting 1 John 5:4, the author emphasizes that faith is the victory that overcomes the world. Your life’s quality, according to him is intricately linked to the strength of your faith, and the enemy constantly seeks to weaken it.
