their thought life. The Bible says, "Neither give place tothe devil" (Eph. 4:27). That means that the devil can'tget ahold of believers unless they let him. They can givehim permission, however. But believers don't have to letSatan dominate their thinking because we haveauthority over him in the Name of Jesus. Satan is notour lord, and we don't have to let him lord it over useven in our thought life. Christians have a will of their own that God neverviolates. But Satan cannot violate a person's will either. Believers don't need to yield to the devil. God has wellequipped and enabled the Body of Christ to be strong inthe Lord by thinking God's thoughts after him. We don'thave to fall prey to the devil and his thoughts becauseHe is not our Lord, Jesus is. We have victory overSatan, but we must not only exercise the authority wehave in Christ, we also have to keep the door to ourminds closed on the devil by thinking in line with God'sWord. That's how we give Satan no access to us andstand strong as members of the triumphant church.
