    1. John 10:10 The devil desires to defeat us, he wants to keep us from accepting Christ, but if he can’t keep us from getting saved, then he will attempt to keep us from discovering Gods purpose for our lives and from leading others to Christ.
      1. Psalms 27:10 The devil will try to defeat us through generational curses, through abuse or even through a dysfunctional home life growing up.
      2. 1 Peter 5:8-9 The devil will also try to defeat us through sin, addiction, fear, shame,  wrong relationships or through any other way that he can.
