Spiritual Warfare: Obeying God for Victory
Obedience to God will Give Satan a Bruising under your feet.
Romans 16:19-20 For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil. And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

2 Corinthians 10:3-5
For though we live in the flesh, we do not wage war according to the flesh. The weapons of our warfare are not the weapons of the flesh. Instead, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every presumption set up against the knowledge of God; and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.

Be sober-minded and alert. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in your faith and in the knowledge that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kinds of suffering.

Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
Walking faithfully with God leaves the devil no choice but to flee. If he does not, God will battle on your behalf, and the devil will ultimately suffer defeat. Therefore, let us commit to walking obediently with God.
