HE’S NOT A FRIEND!

(Satan Is An Adversary, But You’ve Got Absolute Dominion Over Him)

TO THE BIBLE:
Luke 10:18 AMPC
“…He said to them, I saw Satan falling like a lightning [flash] fromheaven.”

LET’S TALK:
Genesis 3 tells us that the serpent tricked Eve. The Bible describes him as “the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world” (Revelation 12:9). In Revelation 12:10, he’s called “…the accuser of our brethren….” Peter, in 1 Peter 5:8, calls him your adversary: “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.” An adversary is an enemy an opponent.

Satan’s followers try to make him look good with songs, movies, cartoons, etc., that make him seem like a friend. Don’t be fooled; Satan is not and will never be your friend! He’s your enemy, but a defeated one. The Apostle Paul in 2 Corinthians 4:3-4 refers to Satan as the god of this world. But thanks be unto God, you’re not of this world! You don’t belong under Satan’s control; he’s not a factor in your life because you’re superior to him. So don’t give him any place or chance in your life.

You have power over Satan and the forces of darkness to keep them defeated and under your feet. Jesus said in Luke 10:19, “Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you” (ESV). Your dominion and authority over the enemy and life’s challenges are supreme and unbeatable. Recognise this and use it always.

GO DEEPER
Ephesians 6:12; 1 John 4:4; James 4:7

PRAY
Dear Father, I’m not deceived by Satan’s lies, manipulations, tricks, schemes and strategies or enticed by his deceitful ways. I stand firm in the truth of the Word and resist him in truth and in faith; I walk on in the victory I have in Christ, living above all the negativities of this world, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
