Victory Over Evil Forces

A Stage Set For Our Victory

  1. If the cross spelt Satan's doom, why would Satan have been so anxious to kill Jesus?
  2. What is this power like that Jesus offers to overcome the power of Satan?


Hope of Victory

  1. On what basis does the Holy Spirit decide whom to help if we don't even know what to pray for?
  2. Does "all things working together for good" mean that it will end in the best way possible or just ends well?


Christians Versus the Devil

  1. Does Christ fight on our behalf, or does he strengthen us to fight the devil?
  2. Can you describe the kind of attitude we can adopt that will cause Satan to flee from us?


Examples of Victory

  1. Can a demon take possession of a person without an invitation?
  2. Can a demon be cast out of a person without his request?
  3. Does God ever take possession of a person like the devil does?  Why, or why not, or under what circumstances?
  4. In what different ways does Satan afflict humans?
  5. What can we do to ward off the devil?  Will such things as sleeping with a Bible under the pillow help?  Reciting Bible verses?  Wearing a cross? Singing a hymn?
