The devil is busy. He attacks us and tempts us all of the time. If he is not bothering you, then maybe you are already doing what he wants you to do.
As Christians, we do not have to give in to the devil. We have a choice in what we do. The Bible says, "... Resist the devil and he will flee from you." James 4:7 However, we cannot resist the devil by ourselves. The beginning of that Bible verse says, "Submit yourselves to God ..." and the verse which follows it says, "Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you ..."
Only with God's help can we resist the devil. We need to get closer to God and do His will or we do not stand a chance against the devil and his powers. God has already defeated the devil. We just need to get on The Lord's side.
