“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you” (James 4:7).
If you were to accidentally swallow something poisonous, you would need to go the emergency room. You would be given an antidote to keep this from being fatal. When you are being deceived by the devil, it is like he is giving you poison. Today’s verse offers two antidotes for Satan’s poison. Surrender all to God and run to Him so you can resist the poison Satan desires to give you. You have a refuge where you can find safety and strength. Run away from Satan and into the arms of the Savior.
