Stand!
(Earnestly) remember the former things, (which I did) of old; for I am God, and there is no one else; I am God, and there is none like Me, declaring the end and the result from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure and purpose. Isaiah 46:9-10
There may be times when it seems that you cannot go forward, but at least you do not have to go backward. You may not know how to forge ahead, but you can stand firmly on what you know of God.
Instead of passively yielding to the enemy, you can say, "This is the ground I have gained, and I am not giving it up, devil. You are not driving me back into the hole that God pulled me out of. I am going to stand strong in the power of God until He delivers me."
Submit Yourself to God
My soul, wait only upon God and silently submit to Him; for my hope and expectation are from Him. Psalm 62:5
James 4:7-8 gives the best advice on how to wage spiritual warfare: "Be subject to God. Resist the devil (stand firm against him), and he will flee from you. Come close to God and He will come close to you."
When you humble yourself in the presence of the Lord, He will exalt you and lift you and make your life significant
James 4:9-10 Be sorrowful, cry, and weep; change your laughter into crying, your joy into gloom! Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.
God will show you how to resist the devil. Spend time in God's presence, and do whatever He tells you to do!
**Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path**
