5 things u should know about the devil:
1.He does not force you to sin . Therefore submit to God and resist the devil and he will flee from you because most of us have a tendency of saying ,"oh it was devil that made me do it " .
That's not true , Don't say that! It's you who would've allowed yourself to sin
2. The devil cannot be in 2 places at once.
It's only God who can for he is omnipresent.
Read Jeremiah 23:24
Though the devil can't be at 2 places at once,he scattered an army of demons on this entire earth .If you don't put your trust in the Lord Jesus Christ you may get under their influence.Be Careful who you listen to on "TikTok" ,be careful what movies u watch .If you reject Jesus he says You will be of the devil , your father whose desires were to be a murderer from the beginning and do not stand in the truth.John 8:44
3.The devil does not read minds
Read 1Kings 8:39 that talks about how God is the one alone that knows every human heart.
At times you may have negative thoughts & wonder whether it's the holy spirit or not
Well tell you what the deceiver (satan) makes u feel at times like he has powers in line with God but the bible says very clear that it's God who reads our minds.
Know Satan's other name , Apollyon meaning the destroyer that's waiting to destroy christian souls
But with our faith and trust in God that won't happen.
4.The devil cannot do anything without God's permission first.For God is the sovereign of this world.
Read Luke 22:31-32
31 “Simon, Simon, Satan has asked(A) to sift all of you as wheat.(B) 32 But I have prayed for you,(C) Simon, that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers.”(D)
See but brothers and sisters though the devil might want to test us we should know that God will always strengthen us
For we Christians are prone to suffering and God knows ,that's why he gives Satan a permit to make u suffer but our God has full trust in us and will strengthen us . Amen🖐️❤️and we'll put the devil to Shame.Just like Job did
5.Satan cannot win 😎‼️
(I like this one)
The one thing we are certain of is that God said he'd crush satan under your feet .For Jesus Christ defeated satan when he rose from the dead .I know some of you might be scared of satan if you're hide behind the Lord because he is a friend who sticks closer than a brother to us .And those who might say they are not scared of him and he'll not do anything to them
I'd advise you all to stay awake for he never rests so never cease praying 📌
satan is Also said in Revelations to be called the accuser of the Brethren ,he makes u feel not worth of Gods love which isn't true
For our Lord God will always love us big sinners ,small sinners his love for us will never change❤️
May y'all stay blessed
