Defeating satan

1 Peter 5:8, Be sober be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

The growth of evil in the world reminds me of the story of the frog in a pot of water. The temperature of the water was raised over time, so the Frog did not realize he was being cooked.

satan has deceived the minds of many over time. We are so accustomed to what is going on, most of us don’t realize we are heading for destruction physically, and some spiritually also.

2 Corinthians 4:3-4, Even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose Minds the God of this age has blinded, who do not believe, the light of the Gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God should shine on them.

Followers of our Lord Jesus Christ can make a difference and change the world one person at a time. Sincere prayer will always be heard by Almighty God, and he will answer those prayers.

James 4:7, Submit to God, resist the devil and he will flee from you.

satan is always looking for thoughts and actions that he can magnify in a person so that the person or persons become so discouraged that they give up and follow sinful ways. His whole purpose is to separate people from God.

satan’s favorite tool is to take our negative words or actions and use them against us. There have been many books written about the power of words for good or evil.

satan cannot read your mind. If you don’t say it, he can’t use it. The best thing you can do is to ask the Lord Jesus Christ, or the Holy Spirit to help you in your thoughts and actions.

We cannot fight satan on our own. Our Father God knows everything about us. He loves us more than we realize and will be our ally if we ask Him.  The main reason of the Holy Spirit in our lives is to be our guide, helper, and in a way protector against satan. In order for us to know just what we can and can’t do we must be familiar with God’s word.

Romans 16:20, And the God of Peace will crush satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you Amen.

God Bless you and your family. Praise The Lord!

Remember Jesus loves you.

Prayer of Salvation.

My Lord Jesus Christ, I thank you for what you did on the cross for me. Your blood washed away all my sins, and by your stripes I was healed. Your death and Resurrection brought me salvation. Please forgive my sins and come into my heart as my personal savior. Amen. 

Praise The Lord!
