Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings.
And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.
I Peter 5:6-11
But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says:
"God opposes the proud
but gives grace to the humble."
Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
James 4:6,7
You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.
I John 4:4
The seventy-two returned with joy and said, "Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name."
He replied, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven."
Luke 10:17-20
Just believe the Bible, do what God says, and you will be fine.

"Keep YOUR senses, be watchful. YOUR adversary, the Devil, walks about like a roaring lion, seeking to devour [someone]. " 1 Peter 5:8
Yes, we should do our best not to be swallowed by Satan's tactics, as most of the world is.

Of course!!! If I'm in a room with a hungry lion I'm definitely going to do more than pause!

Yes, it does. Specially when I see people acting just like that! So, we have all seen Satan. Who has ever seen God?

it helps me to realize satan is real and he is trying to collect as many souls as he can before his time is up.

I would think that people tried to give him a monstrous look to make people fear him.
