Watch and pray because your adverary the devil walketh about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. (1 Peter 5) Be humble. Submit yourself to the Word of God. Let the Holy Spirt have it's way. Be meek. Owe no man anything but to love them. (Romans 13) You are God's and you are bought with a price. (1 Corinthians 6) The price was the Blood of Jesus. Fret not thyself because of evil doers, for they will soon be cast away (Psalm 37) Jesus tells us to let the wheat and the tare grow together and He will separate them when He comes (Matthew 13).
The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof; them and they who dwell therein. (Psalm 24) Be of good cheer. (John 16) Seek peace and pursue it. (Psalm 34) Follow Christ. It is not about "them", it is not about "they". It is about "you". Be holy. Be righteous and the God of peace that passes all understanding will comfort your heart (Philippians 4). Walk in resurection power. Jesus is not dead; He is alive and He sitteth at the right hand of the Father making intercession for you (Romans 8) .....because it's about "you"; what you do; what you think; what you say; what you feel; how you respond; how you behave; according to the Word of God. You've got the power! Holy Ghost power! Child of God, you are not harrassed, persecuted, tortured, and placed in the pit of Hell--according to God's will, purpose and plan for your predestined life because you have no power. THINK! Jesus went down into Hell--He was buried in a grave after being hung on the cross. After He finished taking care of His business setting the captives free in Hell; He came up out of the grave, appeared to a few people; and they watched as He ascended up into heaven. His earthly body was taken up to continue His heavenly ministry. (Acts 1) Glory to God! The devil had no clue that Jesus was on assignment for God. NO CLUE!
Like a sheep led to the slaughter He opened not his mouth. (John 1; Exodus 12; Isaiah 53; Acts 8; 1 Peter 1) Your Lord and Savior was spat upon, cursed at, whipped and stripped naked; publicly; and then hung on the cross--for you!

Exercise your authority to tread on serpents and to cast out demons. You are the head and not the tail. Greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. Exercise your holy boldness.
