Polarberry have you had experience in spiritual warfare? I would caution you to be careful where you tread because yes while we have no need to fear the devil challenging him can open a door that may be very hard to close. The things of the spiritual are not like here it isn't the same as having a gun and shooting your target even if you have the faith and even if you know the words to speak there are things that can bypass that.
For instance, if say you challenge the devil or even a demon for that matter you are then giving them permission to attack you and God does not always deny it this is how many zealous believers bring upon themselves a massively horrible attack thinking themselves strong and ready to face any of the enemies attacks when in fact they were not. The fiery passion and desire to save and protect people from the enemies attacks is indeed a pure intention however if one attempts this without being properly prepared then they will greatly regret it. Though it is pure intentions remember that some of the worst and more horrific things in history were done with pure intentions.
You do not go into war having only part of half of your armor do you? And does the frog catch the fly by seeking it out or does it wait for the fly to come to him? Be careful not confuse your own belief of being ready and God's because we sometimes confuse our own voice with his and make rash decisions and when it comes to the spiritually things it's very dangerous. If you challenge satan you then are giving him permission to attack, if God has not lead you to do so then you open a door and it may be able to be closed the second you plead for God's help but sometimes it isn't that simple.
Remember that to be able to fight in spiritual warfare you need to be properly equipped and prepared and strong enough to do so but many forget that there is a difference between feeling strong and actually being strong. I admire your zeal but in your zeal you may throw caution to the wind, take from someone who has been in spiritual attacks this is not territory you can just waltz into
