Wrestle With the Devil!
By: Robert A. Searles
The Bible tells us that there was war in heaven -between God and Satan- and Satan, (known as the serpent and the devil), was expelled from heaven and cast out upon the earth for a season.
Revelation 12:9 - "And
the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and
Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth,
and his angels were cast out with him."
Satan knows that his control and authority on earth, will come to an end, and he and all who follow him will eventually be cast into hell forever, (all who have not repented and accepted Christ as savior and LORD are servants of Satan and under his control). Those of us who claim salvation by believing, accepting, receiving, and confessing with our mouth, the LORD, supposedly are clothed with the uniform of the LORD as his soldiers and ambassadors , and are prime targets for Satan to attempt to steal, kill, and to destroy. Therefore, we need to be very sure that we have put on the whole armor of God , and have at our disposal the prime weapon of our warfare which is the infaillible word of God.
1 Peter 5:8 -" Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:"
Ephesians 6:11 - "Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil."
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world,
against spiritual wickedness in high places.”Ephesians 6:12
Psalms 144:1 -" (A Psalm of David.) Blessed be the LORD my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:"
Isaiah 41:10 -" Fear
thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will
strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with
the right hand of my righteousness
Philippians 4:13-14 -" I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
