When we see things, like what is happening in the election, we get upset, and rightfully so.
There has been so much backbiting, calling names, and accusations.
I commented to someone today, that some speak with forked tongues. What comes out of the mouth isn't really what's in the heart. And the expressions of
a face usually tells all. You can feel the animosity in the words that are spoken. I don't believe God is pleased with what's going on.
When a person isn't walking truly with the Lord, satan can easily work on them, and sometimes they don't realize it. Some don't care; they are out for power.
Satan knows who and when to set things in motion.
Scripture says that satan is transformed as an angel of light. A person who is in disobedience can easily be swayed by satan and his workers, because they aren't
walking fully in the grace of God. They haven't walked after righteousness, although they appear to be Christian. But, let's not kid ourselves; satan is smart! He listens, and watches,
and he knows who is completely tuned into God, and who isn't. He knows who has the Word within them strong enough to withstand his wiles! He may test you, but, if you are walking close
to the Lord, then you will recognize him for what he is, and resist his attempts at your life.
Scripture gives us lots of ammunition to use against the devil. We need to read the Word, study, and ask the Holy Spirit for enlightment. There's no excuse for anyone
not to be armed for battle, should satan come to call.
God's Thoughts:
2 Corinthians 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
Luke 10:19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
Our Cup:
Heavenly Father, you have given us the weapons for warfare against satan. Help us to arm ourselves effectively, so we'll be ready for the darts that satan will surely send. In Jesus name, I pray. Amen.
