In the Bible, the devil is called a lion, and demons are called dogs, and bulls, but if it were up to me I would definitely call them yellow jackets. I am pretty sure that yellow jackets are part of the curse. I don’t believe the devil has the power to create anything, but if he did, I would give him credit for yellow jackets. This time of year they are building nests everywhere, and most of the time they are around places frequented by me so they will see me and sting me. I buy cans of yellow jacket spray, big cans, and keep them in different places, handy to get quickly and spray a nest when I see it. It gives me great joy to totally destroy a nest and all the babies and mommas. I am always on the lookout for them and I try and see where they are flying to and from. This afternoon I some some flying around a rafter on our back deck and I looked closer and sure enough there was a big ole nest so I sprayed them good.
The big advantage that demons have in our life compared with yellow jackets is that we can’t see them so it makes it hard to aggressively attack and drive them away. But the power of prayer is greater against demons than spray against yellow jackets. Psalms 69:4 says that the demons around me are more than the hairs of my head. Jesus taught us to pray “Deliver us from the evil one.” So if there are that number flying around me, talking to me trying to get me to sin, to draw me away from God, to get me to love the world rather than Jesus I better be praying a lot both for myself and for my family and church family.
Anytime I have a negative thought of any kind I assume it is from a demon and I blast him with a prayer to God, often from Psalms.
Psalms 58:6 O God, shatter their teeth in their mouth;
Break out the fangs of the young lions, O Lord.
Psalms 3:7 Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God!
For You have smitten all my enemies on the cheek;
You have shattered the teeth of the wicked.
God’s angels can whip a demon any day, but they are sent and commissioned against the kingdom of darkness when we pray, only when we pray, and the more we pray the more that are sent.

Interesting the parallel that a good brush burner flame will take off their wings and burn the nest into fiery hell, those little demons, I mean yellow jackets and even worse, hornets!

Bees in the ground are the worse. If you run over them with the mower, you’d better be praying. usually can’t see the ones in the ground. Watch where they are coming in and out from once you know their there. Come in right at dark with a boiling pan of water and pour in hole. that kills alot.
