Provide no place for the devil.
But Peter said: "Ananias, why has Satan tempted your heart, so that you would lie to the Holy Spirit and be deceitful about the price of the land?
Do not defend yourselves, dearest ones. Instead, step aside from wrath. For it is written: "Vengeance is mine. I shall give retribution, says the Lord."
Be clothed in the armor of God, so that you may be able to stand against the treachery of the devil.
In all things, take up the shield of faith, with which you may be able to extinguish all the fiery darts of the most wicked one.
Therefore, be subject to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
Be sober and vigilant. For your adversary, the devil, is like a roaring lion, traveling around and seeking those whom he might devour.
