Topic:GET GOD’S WORD FOR IT
Matthew 4:4
…He [Jesus] answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.'”
When the devil tempted Jesus, Jesus turned the Word of God on him, saying, “It is written…It is written…It is written…” (Matthew 4:4, 7, 10).
Likewise, should the devil remind you of the pain in your body, say what God’s Word says: “It is written, ’By His stripes I am healed’” (see Isaiah 53:5, 1 Peter 2:24)! And tell Daddy God, “I have Your Word for it and I am standing on Your Word. I am not trying to be healed. My healing has already happened. I don’t care what this body says. It has to line up with Your Word because by Jesus’ stripes I am healed!”

What if the fear returns? Speak God’s Word again. Say, “It is written, ’For God has not given me a spirit of fear…’”
When the devil tries to deceive you, give him the Word of God. There is something about the Word of God that causes him not to want to hang around those who use it. It reminds him of Jesus, the Word made flesh (see John 1:14), who rendered him powerless and of no effect when He said, “It is written…”
