The only power evil has is the power we give it. Evil has no power in and of itself. It has been completely conquered by good. We can rest in peace when we rest in Christ who has all power over the "ruler of the world" (Satan - the source of evil).
The devil is like a weak, immature little boy who is always afraid. Out of his insecurity, he constantly works to project his fear on mankind in order to intimidate and cause us to fall. But he is all bark and no bite. If we stand up to him with faith in Christ he will flee like the scared little wimp he is.
Do not ever be intimidated by evil. Stay connected to Jesus through the Sacraments and you will never have cause to fear. Christ has already won every battle and will eventually win the war. Stand strong!
The following is an interesting article on evil, sin and death entering into the world and how to overcome it.
