The lyrics of the song encourage listeners to rebuke the devil and shake him off in Jesus' name.

The first verse warns against allowing the devil to have control over one's life. The lyrics advise the listener to not let the devil ride, as he may end up taking over and putting them down. It speaks of the devil's desire to destroy us and how we need to rebuke him when he seeks to devour us. The verse ends with the call to shake him off somehow.
The second chorus emphasizes the victory over the devil that comes with faith. The lyrics say that the devil is now under our feet, indicating that we have conquered him. It echoes the first chorus, again urging listeners to shake the devil off in the name of Jesus.
Overall, "Shake The Devil Off" is a powerful anthem that encourages believers to stand strong in their faith and take authority over the enemy. It is a reminder that we can overcome any challenge with the help of Jesus Christ.

Amen. October 21, 2023 after feeling down, worried and anxious I changed my mind and spoke encouragement over myself. Then I got up. As soon as I start moving this song came to me. I haven't heard it since I was younger. But that's what music does it's a spiritual thing.
To you who have been going through rough circumstances. I invite you to declare Psalm 43, "God is my refuge, strength and #PRESENTHELP this removes the low vibration of fear. Though outer things and conditions go wrong, I am NOT going to be afraid. I Declare, that God is my refuge! I am not going to be intimidated or afraid. I am going to hold on to the truth and thought of God. God did not give us the spirit of fear, But of power, of Love and of a Sound mind. Amen you shall not be moved. God disarms the wars in your mind and destroys any power they ever had. It can't ever trouble you again! #ThankYouFather
