About this listen

Want real freedom and lasting victory? James 4 lays out a strategic, sequential roadmap: humble yourself, submit to God, resist the devil, draw near to God—and win the battle in His authority. In this message, we unpack why humility comes first, how submission places you under God’s protection and rank, and why proximity to Christ—not willpower—makes the enemy flee.

What you’ll learn:

The James 4:6–7 sequence that leads to breakthrough: Humble → Submit → Resist → Draw Near.

Why there’s no “middle ground”—you’re either under Christ’s authority or opposing it.

How worship, giving, and quiet time are practical ways to practice submission and build obedience.

What Scripture means when it says the enemy will “flee”—to run for his life from Christ’s authority.

Key Scriptures & ideas: James 4:6–8; humility vs. pride; antitassō (oppose) & hupotassō (come under rank); authority over attack; freedom found in nearness to Jesus.
