How can faith help resist spiritual attacks?

Answered in 1 source

Faith in Christ serves as a shield against spiritual attacks by the devil.

Ephesians 6:16 identifies faith as the 'shield' that enables believers to quench the fiery darts of the wicked one. This means that having faith in Christ's finished work allows Christians to stand firm against temptations and accusations. When doubts or sinful impulses arise, recalling the gospel—the truth that we are justified by Christ's blood—fortifies us in spiritual warfare. Trusting in Jesus and His sacrifice helps believers to counter the lies of the enemy, reinforcing their identity as forgiven and accepted in Him.
