Since we’re born with all sorts of human weaknesses, what are we to do when the devil comes along? Listen: '... having done all... stand.' In Romans 14:4, Paul says that '... God is able to make [you] stand.' Not in your own strength, but in the strength of Jesus Christ. By yourself, you’re an easy target for the enemy, but in the strength of the Lord you can stand and not give in. So today, when Satan shows up with his temptations, announce that you’re going to stand in Christ. Let him know that you’re going to stand until the shaking stops, until you feel peace again, until the wave of loneliness passes, until your marriage is restored, until you come out of debt and until the struggle is over, until the tempter loses his power either to trap you or topple you! When you do the standing - God does the strengthening! Paul said, 'I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me' (Philippians 4:13). God doesn’t just strengthen you once, He’ll strengthen you again and again. He’ll strengthen you every time you face a difficult challenge, every time a memory comes back to haunt you, every time you’re reminded of your imperfect past, every time you face a difficult decision. Drawing from God the strength you need to stand up to the devil may take effort. It may take your praise, your prayer, and your getting into His Word with an intensity you’ve never had before. But the fact is - you can stand if you really want to!
