"Satan's Strategies"
In the next series of blogs the Lord has quickened me to dive into the enemies strategies. The bible commands us to put on the whole armor of God that we may stand AGAINST WILES of the devil(Eph 6:11) The word wiles is also the word strategy. Iam sure many reading this blog have seen the cartoon Bugs Bunny. In it there were two characters, the roadrunner and coyote. The coyote was always conjuring up a plan to get the roadrunner into his trap. However it ended up backfiring on him and the very thing setup he succumed to. Isint it interesting that the coyotes name was WILe E coyote? This is exactly how the enemy operates. He sets up trapes and often their hidden. The reason for it is so that he can get us ensnared and entraped. He wants very much to steal kill and destroy. God said through the mouth of Peter Hes like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour(1 Peter 5:8) We must know how he operates. God said through the mouth of Paul Be not ignorant of his devices lest satan get an advantage(2 Cor 2:11) So through the next few blogs we are going to dive deep into these devices. Knowledge is power! What we dont know can kill us! God said through the mouth of Hosea My people are destroyed through a lack of knowledge(Hosea 4:6) Jesus said We shall know the truth and the truth shall make us free(John 8:32) Its not the truth that makes us free its the truth we KNOW! Think about it. This is whats done in the game of sports. Opposing teams watch and examine tapes and different footage so they can "sizeup" their opponents! The bible says in the amplified translation We wrestle not against flesh and blood or physical opponents but against spiritual opponents(Eph 6:12) Finally in this beginning blog lets deal with an awesome phrase at the beginning of Ephesians six verse number eleven. PUT ON! Its our responsibility to put this full armor on and stand against these wiles schemes and devices of the devil. Nobody can do it for us! we can pray for and encourage each other but ultimately its up to us to get into this supernatural battle with Johovah nissi "our banner" in the time of war at our sides guranteeing smashing success! Read the next few blogs in this series with a readiness to avenge the avasary in Jesus name!!!!!!!!!
