Satan’s Work History
My Journey of reading the
Bible for myself takes me back to where it all began. In the beginning. Where
Satan is warring against God and all of us. He wants to be God. He
wants to control everything and wants every person to bow and worship him.
I have seen that there are
only two things that are at work in this world and we are given a free will to
choose which side we will be on and to whom we will serve. All other things in
this world, as we know them, are just distractions to keep us from walking with
our most High God Yahweh.
Having the nice house, new
car, fancy clothes, flat screen TV’s, gaming gear, keeping us enslaved with
debt etc… These are all distractions
used by satan, to be our idols, to keep us busy from doing the things God wants
us to do.
I have learned that I have
been born into a very deceptive world, realizing that I have been taught and
manipulated into believing that everything around me is normal. That this
is “just life” and “how it is suppose to be.”
My dear friends, this world
is far from the norm, and so far from what the most High God, Yahweh, intended
and desires for us, his children.
Satan and his ministers are
all around us on this earth. They hold positions of power and control and they
surround us everywhere and are in every aspect of our lives. They have lied,
manipulated, deceived, and controlled with their sly and cunning ways.
II peter 5: 8
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.
IICorinthians 11: 13-15
For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves
into the apostles of Christ.
And no marvel, for Satan himself is transformed
into an angel of light.
It is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as
the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
Transformed
: Greek 3345 Strong’s concordance
Metaschematizo (pronounced met-askh-ay-mat-id'-zo)
To
transfigure or disguise, transform self.
So, if
Satan and his demon ministers can transform themselves then who or where are
they?
Satan is
the Father of lies and a master of deceit. The Bible says that in the end
times, there will be signs and wonders and he will deceive many. People will
think they are doing God's will, but find out that they are not and have been
deceived. Satan laughs and makes mockery of us.
Matt. 24:5,23-26.
For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive
many.
Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is
Christ, or there; believe it not.
For there shall arise false Christs, and false
prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if
it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Behold, I have told you before.
Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is
in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it
not.
Let’s
look at Satan’s work history starting from in the Garden of Eden when he
transformed himself into a serpent and tempted Eve to eat of the tree of
knowledge of good and evil. Here is the story:
Genesis 3:
1-7
Now
the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, yea,
hath God said, ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit
of the trees of the garden:
But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the
garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest
ye die
And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
For 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.
When the woman saw the tree was good for food, and that it
was pleasant to the eyes, and the tree to be desired to make one wise, she took
of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her, and
he did eat.
And
the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked….
Did
you know that Satan has access to God’s throne in heaven?
