Jesus gave us examples of how to resist Satan.
We read in Matthew 4: 1-11
“Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. The tempter came to him and said, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.”
Jesus answered, “IT IS WRITTEN : ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”
Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down. For it is written: “ ‘He will command his angels concerning you, and they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’”
Jesus answered him, “IT IS WRITTEN: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”
Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. “All this I will give you,” he said, “if you will bow down and worship me.”
Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For IT IS WRITTEN : ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’”
THEN THE DEVIL LEFT HIM and angels came and attended him.” Hallelujah!
Beloved, it is obvious that Jesus was able to respond to Satan’s temptations with His knowledge of scripture. Jesus used the sword of the spirit, THE WORD OF GOD, which was stored up inside Him according to Psalm 119:11.
We must make necessary efforts to meditate and store God’s Word in us, so we can resist Satan whenever he attacks us.
LET US PRAY
Holy Jesus, thank You for giving us the example on how to resist the devil. Help us to store up Your Word in our hearts so we can fight the good fight and be victorious over the enemy. In Jesus’ mighty name, I pray. Amen 
Have a blessed day
