The fruit of the Spirit is... SELF-CONTROL. 

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. 

The prince of this world has come, but he has nothing in me. 

Resist the devil—and he will flee from you. 

Here is the heart and action of a follower of Jesus, exhibiting CHUTZPAH towards the devil, whenever temptations rear their ugly faces again and again:

“Oh, this temptation AGAIN??!! GOOOOOD! This is one more chance i get to break satan’s nose, resist, overcome and overwhelm him! By the Blood of the Lamb!”

Dictionary

ORIGIN late 19th cent.: Yiddish, from Aramaic 

“Oh, this temptation AGAIN??!! GOOOOOD! This is one more chance i get to break satan’s nose, resist, overcome and overwhelm him! By the Blood of the Lamb!”
