WITHSTANDING SATAN’S PLAN
Banished from Heaven … damned and discredited eternally, Lucifer/Satan is full of revenge and hatred, he hates diabolically all that God Is, does and loves.
Therefore it’s not surprising to see that hatred unleashed on all that is wholesome and Holy, all that is glorifying to God and God, The Son Jesus.
Satan’s aggression is toward the True Church and towards Israel because God “has set His love upon …” them, Deuteronomy 7;7
The planned assault of Satan is to “weaken” the Nation’s, Isaiah 14;12. How is this accomplished? By attacking and undermining the Word of God and making it “vile” in the eyes of humanity, through moral pollution and compromise he weakens that robustness and strength that comes directly from Righteousness and True Morality.
Unrighteousness and a departure from the integrity of heart that God seeks is to become unstable, restless, insecure and troubled. Without a Moral Compass we are all “at sea” and prone to deception and control by Satan’s insidious deceptions Psalm1. As we adhere and commit to God’s righteousness we have positive strength and “fruit” that satisfies and strengthens us against his overtures and enticements Isaiah 32;17-18.
Security, Stability, Discernment and Strength of character comes from pursuing Divine Principles. All else is subject to a lack of assurance and peace. That’s where our World is now, having forsaken the “right way” we are easily waylaid like the man traveling down from Jerusalem to Jericho, falling among thieves and left stripped and wounded (Luke 10;30), Jeremiah 18;15
The Answer is to “stand … see and … ask, for the Ancient Ways (the old paths) wherein is the good way, and walk therein, finding rest for your souls …”Jeremiah 6;16.
A return to the Ways of God, The Word of God is the path to a fortifying of the soul from the treachery of Lucifer the fallen, and the securing of the Peace of God which “passes all understanding”.
