Resistir

Por Bíblia Online –

Resistir ao diabo e às forças do mal é um imperativo bíblico. Deus nos deu autoridade, armas espirituais e poder para enfrentar e vencer toda investida do inimigo.

Autoridade em Cristo

Jesus deu aos seus discípulos autoridade sobre todo o poder do inimigo. Em seu nome, temos domínio sobre as trevas.

19 Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

17 Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name."

1 And having called together the twelve, He gave them power and authority over all demons, and to heal diseases.

1 And summoning His twelve disciples, He gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every illness.

19 And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on the earth will have been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on the earth will have been loosed in heaven."

A armadura de Deus

Somos chamados a revestir a armadura completa de Deus para resistir às ciladas do diabo e permanecer firmes na batalha espiritual.

10 Finally, my brothers, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you may be able to stand against the stratagems of the devil.

4 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty by God to the pulling down of strongholds,5 casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ,

Firmes na resistência

Resistir ao diabo é um ato de fé ativa. A Bíblia nos garante que quando resistimos, ele foge, e que maior é o que está em nós do que o que está no mundo.

8 Be sober, be watchful; your adversary the devil walks about as a roaring lion, seeking someone he may devour.9 Resist him, being steadfast in [your] faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.

4 You are of God, little children, and you have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

8 He who practices sin is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. For this [reason] the Son of God appeared, that He might destroy the works of the devil.

33 But when He had turned and saw His disciples, He rebuked Peter, saying, "Get behind Me, Satan! For you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men."
