Doing the Word saves us.
The purpose of the devil is to steal, kill, and destroy. So devil tries to get us to reason the word away, even implying that we can prosper if only we do what devil says.
John 10:10 (Jesus says) The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
("Obey me," says devil, "and I will make you great like they are great and famous.")
10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

"Just do this one little thing." says devil.
