As a believer, you have an enemy whose sole desire is to ensnare you in his traps and keep you in bondage. His schemes are inventive and destructive, and he is an expert in tempting you to sin. So how do you protect yourself against such a devious opponent? Satan deceives you into rebelling against God; yet, when you stay in the center of God's will, you remain safe from the schemer's snares.
