Resist the Devil
Jam 4: 7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
Struggling to make ends meet on a first salary, the vicar was livid when he confronted his wife with the receipt for a £250 dress she had bought...
"How could you do this?!"
"I was outside the store looking at the dress in the window, and then I found myself trying it on," she explained. "It was like Satan was whispering in my ear, 'You look fabulous in that dress. Buy it!'"
"Well," the pastor replied, "You know how I deal with that kind of temptation. I say, 'Get behind me, Satan!'"
"I did," replied his wife, "but then he said, 'It looks fabulous from back here, too!'"

The words “Get behind me Satan” can have a positive effect, even when said under your breath. Sometimes it can be shortened to “Go Away”. It MUST be said though – Satan cannot read your mind, even if it seems that he can.
