An unhappy fact of the Christian life--one that often surprises and bewilders the saints--is that even the sweetest, humblest, most spiritually mature believers are plagued with temptation and evil thoughts. Facing the problem head-on, Harold Vaughan has prepared an honest exposition on the satanic forces which influence our minds and the Scriptural path to mental purity. His answer for those who feel that at any moment they will crumble under the heavy hand of temptation: Rejoice! God is working in you the on-going process of sanctification.

With a better understanding of the nature and power of our Adversary, we are better equipped to handle Satan's barrage of unholy thoughts meant to weaken our faith, choke our joy, and destroy our witness.

By faith, we learn to "reign in life" with our victorious Lord Jesus Christ, battling the enemy in the full armor of God. Then the victory over Satan becomes a reality in our personal lives and in our practical service.
