God's Law, when put into action by men, is enough to defeat all assaults from the devil, as it is such a lowly weapon for the Lord our God to use when He is so great and powerful.
Yet He shows us through example that we mere created things from dust, are capable of defeating God's most terrifying creature by embodying His Law, or in other words; putting on the full armour of God.
"“And so train the young women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.” (Titus 2:4-5) Feminism is a symptom of male failure."
Feminism is a symptom of some men's failure, but not of men as a whole. It's a correct diagnosis but applied too broadly. This kind of assessment is discouraging to the individual man because it neglects his efforts by conflating him with the failures of those he has no control over.
The cross that He carried on route to His crucifixion, represents the heavy burden of our sins. He took our sins in the form of a cross and placed it on His shoulders. And whilst inhibited by the limitations of a man made of blood and flesh, He carried this burden for us to a death that was not deserving of Him, but to us.
So what makes Jesus masculine? Sacrifice.
It's the most brutal death given to the most undeserving of all who walked this earth, yet He accepted it willingly.
By this example, we Christian men must accept the hard reality that we are here sacrificially. That we accept the weight of the custom made crosses placed on our shoulders by the Lord our God, and then bare that weight without scorn for our Father.
Look around, satan is winning. Critical race theory , critical gender theory , post modernism , what godless man wants taking primacy in Christian church. Hell is growing.
The Devil is the prince of this world, and we're told things will eventually just get worse and worse until the Apocalypse. But although it would be folly to try to bring back the sun as that darkness falls, you are still in charge of your own soul.
The devil is a master of lies. His perceived victories are nothing more that that - perceptions. You perceive his victories because he deceives you into believing them, when in fact, the idea that there is a war between God and the devil is an illusion in itself. How can the devil, who is a mere created thing, be capable of overthrowing God when he ranks lower than humans in the hierarchy of God's creatures? If the gap between man and God is infinite, then how much more infinite is the gap between God and the devil?

Excellent post. We are not getting out of this until the correct model of masculinity is restored.

Jesus was masculine.
He vouched for and protected and welcomed the vulnerable; children; sick; elderly; women.
He provided… food, drink and much more.
He lead with great integrity and was outspoken in the truth.
He faced his suffering with courage and silence.
He challenged the corrupt and dangerous authorities.
He wasn’t egotistical or arrogant or domineering or vain.
He was humble, He took nothing for himself only obeyed and served God and mankind.
The servant King of all kings.

Is he winning in your own home? I heard a song a while back, some of the lyrics stated:"
"There's no question you can't ask,
When there's love at home;
There is strength for any task,
When there's love at home;
Sharing joy in work or play,
Confidence to face the day,
Knowing love will find a way,
When there's love at home
Anger cools and pressures cease,
When there's love at home;
Children learn to live in peace,
When there's love at home;
Courage to reach out in grace,
Meet a stranger face to face,
Find a reconciling place,
When there's love at home."
Homes are built with strong patriarchs and gentle matriarchs.

The Devil can't win over God but he can win the battle over our soul.
Sounds like he's got to you with the post modernism.
