Satan's Lies Debunked

If we believe Satan’s lies, we will begin to doubt God, forget that God loves us, and focus on our hopelessness.

Jesus stood up against Satan’s lies (Matthew 4:1-11), and Satan was forced to leave. Because we are in Christ, we can do the same.

Since the above is true, we need to:

Recognize their source--“Let no one deceive you” Matthew 24:4

Satan Says................................GOD Says
You are condemned………………. No condemnation to those In Christ
You will never get victory………... You always have victory in Christ
You are worthless………………… You are a chosen vessel for Me
You are stupid…………………….. You have been given the mind of Christ
God does not love you……………. My Love for you is Everlasting

Refuse Satan’s suggestions-- Satan is a liar and the father of lies --John 8:44
Since Satan is the source of all dishonesty, his suggestion will be a deception.

Rely on the Holy Spirit for appropriate Scripture--Ephesians 6:17
Trust God to give us His truth to counter each deception.

Repeat that Scripture--John 8:12
Claim God’s promise in full assurance of faith.

Renounce any hold Satan has on you--Proverbs 28:13
Cancel the consent given to Satan, throw away all idols - modern or pagan, this breaks his hold on you.

Resist the devil and he will leave you--James 4:7
Submit totally to God, resist the devil and he must flee.
