We Can't Let Satan Slip in on a Simple Sentence

People need to be careful about what they say at all times.  Christians particulary, and especially need to govern what comes out of their mouths.

What are we speaking over ourselves and our loved ones?  What are we saying we trust God to do in our lives. 

Satan has no power, but he is always looking for an opportunity to use anything negative that we say as an opening to our power.  If he can plant a negative thought or send a temptation, based on what we say, he will use that as a conduit to get us to act on it.

We must speak victory at all times my brothers and sisters.  Now, we don't have to lie about our reality, but if we say: "I'm struggling right now and I don't see a way out, end that statement with, but I know that God is a keeper, and He can make the impossible possible."  And, by all means, don't forget to use scripture to defeat the enemy.  After all, Jesus quoted scripture to the devil to let him know that He knows what the Word says, and that the Word is all that counts.  That is why the Bible tells us to study to be approved.  In other words, know the Bible for yourself and you can't be fooled.

The tongue has the power of life and death, Proverbs 18:21A (NIV)
