God is the Blessing from Whom all blessings come. We must therefore learn not to focus on the blessings and forget the Blessing. Where God is, the blessings flow. Without God, we can’t get any blessing; when we discount God, we will not succeed.
As believers, we need to know what we are up against and the fact that it is not a physical confrontation but a spiritual battle; the devil’s schemes and mind manipulations.

Do not allow him to take advantage of your ignorance because in that way you give him the authority to attack you.
