We often imagine the devil as a red-skinned villain with horns, a pitchfork, and a fiery glare. But his most dangerous weapon isn’t fire—it’s permission.
Yes, the enemy needs your permission to operate.
In The Sin the Devil Couldn’t Do, author K.D. Lynne exposes the subtle, twisted schemes of Satan as he whispers lies into the mind of a broken man. The devil points, mocks, and accuses—but what he can never do is force his will upon you. That’s the one sin the devil couldn’t commit—to deny God and reject Jesus like we so often do. He knows who they are, but he refuses to surrender. And that refusal is his eternal downfall.
And because he can't, he works day and night to keep you from doing it.
💀 Recognizing the Devil’s Schemes
The Bible warns us in 2 Corinthians 2:11 not to be "ignorant of Satan's devices." He uses:
Deception: Twisting the truth just enough to make it believable.
Guilt and Shame: Accusing you of things Jesus already paid for.
Division: Turning hearts against each other to destroy unity.
Temptation: Offering shortcuts that lead to spiritual death.
Distraction: Filling your mind with noise to drown out God’s voice.
In The Conversation, the devil is portrayed not just as a tempter, but as a bitter, defeated enemy trying to convince a man that he’s beyond redemption. But what silences the devil isn’t argument—it’s truth.
🔐 How to Deny the Devil Access
Here are 5 ways to stop giving the enemy permission to torment your life:
Guard Your Mind (Romans 12:2)-Renew your thoughts with God’s Word. Lies can’t live where truth abides.
Speak the Word (Matthew 4:10)-Jesus resisted Satan with Scripture—so should we.
Live in the Light (John 3:20-21)-Sin thrives in secrecy. Confess it. Bring it to the light.
Close the Gaps (Ephesians 4:27)-Don’t give the devil a foothold through unresolved anger, bitterness, or pride.
Stay at the Feet of Jesus (Luke 10:39)-Worship shuts the enemy up. The closer you are to Christ, the harder it is for the enemy to deceive you.
🔥 What the Devil Can’t Do
He can’t love. He can’t forgive. He can’t repent. He can’t receive grace. He can’t submit to God.
But you can.
And that’s where your victory lies. In The Sin the Devil Couldn’t Do, we’re reminded that our greatest power is not in how loudly we rebuke Satan—but in how deeply we surrender to Christ.
So, today—have The Conversation. Not with the accuser, but with the Savior.
Because the devil can only haunt hearts that aren't held by God.
