The Angel of the Lord by John Hagee

Then he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the Angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at his right hand to oppose him. And the Lord said to Satan, "The Lord rebuke you, Satan! The Lord who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you!" Zechariah 3:1-2

The Bible is clear that there is a real devil who slithered into the garden of Eden and seduced Adam and Eve (Genesis 3). The same devil tempted Jesus in the wilderness (Matthew 4). Satan and his angels were cast out of heaven and deceived the world (Revelation 12:9). He is the father of lies (John 8:44) and the accuser of the brethren (Revelation 12:10). Paul says Satan is the "prince of power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience" (Ephesians 2:2). Behind every temptation, there is the tempter. Behind every lie, there is the father of lies. Behind every murder, there is Satan who was "a murderer from the beginning" (John 8:44).

Jesus taught us to pray, "Deliver us from the evil one" (Matthew 6:13). God has the power and authority to set you free from darkness. Jesus said, "Therefore if the son makes your free, you shall be free indeed" (John 8:36). Satan was utterly defeated by Christ at Calvary and through His resurrection.
