Resist the Roaring Lion

1 Peter 5:5-9 (HCSB)
⁵  In the same way, you younger men, be subject to the elders. And all of you clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble. ⁶  Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God, so that He may exalt you at the proper time, ⁷  casting all your care on Him, because He cares about you. ⁸  Be serious! Be alert! Your adversary the Devil is prowling around like a roaring lion, looking for anyone he can devour. ⁹  Resist him and be firm in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are being experienced by your fellow believers throughout the world.
