1 John 2:14 I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.
This verse refers to the father and the young man and lets us know we can be closer to God by letting the word of God abide within us. Again it tells us that the father has know Him form the beginning and because of his obedience in following God he has overcame the wicked one. Then he tells the young one because he is strong and abiding in the word of God he has overcome Satan. This shows us that if we abide in God and stand strong and bold in our faith we can overcome Satan. We need to rely on the strength of our God to stand against Satan because the closer we get to God it seems Satan throws more at us. We also see in this, the growth of the Christian and the knowledge acquired to help live in the Light.
