       This is because as we have become afraid of the situation, we have immediately handicapped ourselves mentally, and making the right choice from this point forward is going to be difficult, and may not even happen as we have blinded ourselves by our fear. James says the devil will flee from us when we resist him. That certainly makes sense, doesn’t it? If we don’t immediately go into a fear state, with whatever it is, then then quickly he loses his power. How can Satan have power over us if we aren’t afraid of him? Remember Jesus told us to not be afraid of humans with evil plans. Well, so it is with Satan himself. Satan has so much victory and power over people because they immediately become afraid of him. They become afraid of a bad thought. They quiver over some seemingly bad luck that has been presented to them. All people have negative situations come up in life. And yet, all people do not respond the same. There are people of whom nothing really ever seems to bother them, or if it does bother them, it is only for a short period of time.
