Satans pile skydes altid ind in dine tanke. Han sætter
spørgsmålstegn ved gud og Hans ord. Han kommer altid med mon Gud nu
også. Ah det kan vist ikke være rigt og han forsøger sig med alle
mulige snig angreb. Stå fast i tro.
… Han var morder fra begyndelsen og boede ikke i sandheden, fordi
der ikke er nogen sandhed i ham. Når han taler en løgn, taler han
om sin egen, for han er en løgner og faderen til den (Johannes
8:44).
Du skal aldrig forvente, at djævelen fortæller sandheden om noget.
Bibelen siger, at han taler løgn, fordi det ikke ligger i ham at
fortælle sandheden. Forestil dig, at han prøver at sætte tanken i
dit sind om, at du ikke virkelig er født på ny, eller at du aldrig
kan være en seriøs kristen. Det burde ikke få din opmærksomhed,
fordi han har fortalt dig en løgn.
Husk, hvad han gjorde med Jesus: Gud havde netop talt ud af himlen
til Jesus ved sin dåb og sagde: "... Dette er min elskede Søn,
i hvem jeg er vellykket." (Matt. 3:17). Nu var stemmen hørbar
nok til at Jesus og baptisten Johannes hørte den; Englene og alle
dæmoner hørte det, alligevel kom Satan til ham og sagde: "...
Hvis du er Guds Søn, skal du beordre, at disse sten bliver til brød"
(Matt 4: 3). Satan udfordrede, hvad Gud sagde om Jesus i Matteus
3:17.
Noget lignende skete i Genesis Book. Gud havde bedt Adam om at have
tendens til at bevare Edens have, men instruerede, at han kunne spise
fra ethvert træ i haven, bortset fra træet med viden om godt og
ondt. Satan bedragede imidlertid Eva, og hun spiste frugten af
træet med viden om godt og ondt. Han sagde til hende: "...
Gud ved, at i den dag, du spiser deraf, skal dine øjne åbnes, og du
skal være som guder, idet du ved godt og ondt" (1 Mos 3: 5).
Satan vidste, hvad Gud havde sagt til Adam, men udfordrede Guds
instruktioner. Sådan er han; han taler altid imod, hvad Gud har sagt
til dig eller om dig. Han kunne spørge dig: ”Hvis du virkelig er
frelst, hvordan har du det da ikke?” Det spørger ham, hvad Gud
sagde i Efeserne 2: 8: ”For af nåde er du frelst gennem tro; og
det ikke af jer selv: det er Guds gave. ”Din følelse var ikke det,
du fik reddet. Så ikke lyt til hans løgne.
Satan vil altid fortælle dig, at du ikke er retfærdig; du er ikke
helet; du er ikke et Guds barn; men lyt ikke til hans løgne. Modstå
ham med Ordet, så vil han flygte.

DON'T LISTEN TO SATAN'S LIES !
Satan's arrows are always pushed into your
thoughts. He questions God and His words. He always comes with God
now too. Ah it may not be rich and he tries himself with all sorts of
sneak attacks. Stand firm in faith.
…He was a murderer from the beginning, and
abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he
speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the
father of it (John 8:44).
You should never expect the devil to tell
the truth about anything. The Bible says he speaks lies, because it’s
not in him to tell the truth. Imagine he tries to put the thought in
your mind that you’re not really born again or that you can never
be a serious Christian. That shouldn’t get your attention, because
he’s told you a lie.
Recall what he did to Jesus: God had just
spoken out of heaven to Jesus at His baptism saying, “…This is my
beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased” (Matthew 3:17). Now, the
voice was audible enough that Jesus and John the Baptist heard it;
the angels and all demons heard it, yet Satan came to Him and said,
“…If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made
bread” (Matthew 4:3). Satan challenged what God said about Jesus in
Matthew 3:17.
Something similar happened in the Book of
Genesis. God had told Adam to tend and keep the Garden of Eden, but
instructed that he could eat from any tree in the garden, except the
tree of the knowledge of good and evil. However, Satan deceived Eve
and she ate the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
He said to her, “...God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof,
then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good
and evil” (Genesis 3:5).
Satan knew what God had said to Adam, but
challenged God’s instructions. That’s the way he is; he always
talks against what God has said to you or about you. He could ask
you, “If you’re truly saved, how come you don’t feel that way?”
That’s him questioning what God said in Ephesians 2:8: “For by
grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is
the gift of God.” Your feeling wasn’t what got you saved. So,
don’t listen to his lies.
Satan will always tell you that you’re not
righteous; you’re not healed; you’re not a child of God; but
don’t listen to his lies. Resist him with the Word, and he’ll
flee.
