My struggle against Satanism in our popular culture has been described as Cinderella versus the Black Knight.
Under normal circumstances one would expect the dark, strong, violent agent to win hands down.
But God's blessing turns the tables on worldly expectations.
Although God is omnipotent He is a harmless romantic like Cinderella.
He does not use force or violence.
"Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, says the Lord of hosts." Zechariah 4:6 (NRSV)
God has (non-violent) ways we cannot even imagine.
"Even though it seems impossible to the remnant of this people in these days, should it also seem impossible to me, says the Lord of hosts?" Zechariah 8:6 (NRSV)
So pray to God with a loving heart.
And He will deliver you.
