You can't blame the devil for your own rebellion. You can't stand before God, both now and at the Judgment seat of Christ, and point to the devil and say - "he made me do it, it's all his fault". No, the Devil can only bring out the rebellion thats already in your heart. He can only tempt you to sin. He can't make you do anything. You, however, can make him leave you, and others, alone. He has no right to access territory that belongs to Jesus Christ. Technically speaking, the whole world is Christs - the Devil is a "squatter". He only has access to souls that allow him to. Really. No Christian should ever have a problem with the Devil. I mean, he may be stupid enough to cause trouble for you but if you know your authority in Christ and remember to use it - he will flee (to run away, swiftly, from danger) from you. Folks, he is terrified of Christ (as we should be, on one level). If we let our "Christ in us" rise up and rebuke him - all you gonna see is his back side. But remember,  Christ rebukes him from the right hand of the Father - from there, every name that is named, all authorities and principalities and powers are under his feet. He is, literally, physically and spiritually, above all. The "Name above all names" is his.
So don't let that loser influence you in any way, especially with lies. Satan's only real power, his greatest temptation to us is not to lust or hate, etc., but to doubt God, to question Him. Does he really exist? Does he really care for me, love me? Is the Bible really God's word? (I speak as a fool). Are there apostles and prophets today? Are "tongues" from God or the devil ? and so on, ad infinitum.
Has God said you shall not eat of every tree of the garden? You shall not surely die! "Resist (oppose, strive against) the Devil and he will flee from you" . "Every spirit that confesses not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh (not only his personal flesh but corporately in the flesh of every believer on earth) is not of God: not just demons but human spirits too....and this is that spirit of anti-christ, (anti means to oppose, Satan opposed Jesus in heaven and he opposes him here on earth) whereof you have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world (remember, "earth" in the Bible means the physical realm, the actual planet we live on. "World" is referring to humankind,  the human race. This is why the world (and the earth) must be destroyed by fire and remade, because they harbored a criminal, because they are filthy, unholy, from joining their spirits with the devil's, the anti-christ's - like a house infested with vermin, rats and roaches and termites, at some point, better to just burn it down and start over.
You are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world. You believe that there is one God; you do well, the devils also believe and tremble. But will you know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? In the religion called "Christianity" they do not walk in the realm of the miraculous. Their faith, indeed, is dead. They have "a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof, from such turn away". They have endless meetings where they worship loudly, and speak to one another, believing because they have Bibles, they are accepted of God, but they never fellowship with Him, only with one another. Oh, and Satan is welcome too, as long as he looks the part - dresses up nice, says all the right "catch phrases" and puts enough in the offering plate. Faith, to them, is showing up to every service. It isn't a heart open to God's supernatural ability to do as he pleases in us, inwardly, and in our lives, outwardly, meaning, literally "all things are possible "
