Satan. RCCG SOD Year Six

We want to study our adversary, Satan. I am sure by now you know some of his names. His name is the devil. He is also called Beelzebub. He is called Belial, the adversary, the dragon, and the serpent—horrible names. If you do not remember all the names, it does not matter. Just remember the name Jesus.

You need to know your enemy to deal with him correctly.

Ephesians 2:2 calls him a prince, so you need to know who you are dealing with. He is a Prince.

In 2 Cor. 4:4, the Bible calls him good of the powers of the air. In other words, they also regard him a god in his own domain.

In 1 Peter 5:8, he pretends to be a lion. He likes to copy the Lion of Judah. He loves to roar, but he is not a lion; he is only pretending to be one.

According to Daniel 14:12, His original name is Lucifer, which means the son of the morning.

In Ezekiel 28:11, the Bible calls him the anointed cherub that covereth. I know you learn this in Year 1, these are just revisions.

Then, in John 2:22 and John 8:14, the Bible calls him a liar.

So you see, when we have people worshipping what they call gods, they are not worshiping the Living God. You need to know that the devil is a god in his domain. I am sure if you get to the camp of Guru Marhji now, you will know the god there. If you get to the headquarters of Olumba Olumba Ombu, you will meet the little god there, too. There was once a Jesus of Oyiingbo who was also god in his domain.

THE PRESENT LOCATION OF SATAN

Where is the devil right now? The Bible makes it clear that the devil is at liberty. He is free to roam about. According to Job 1:7 and Job 2:2, when God asked him, “Satan, where comest thou?” He said, ‘Oh, from going to and froin the earth and from walking up and down in it’.

Right now, according to Ephesians 2:2, his headquarters is in the air and that is one of the beautiful things ; that when Jesus returns, right there in the air at the headquarters of Satan, that is where they are going to spread the table for us who are his beloved children.

In Revelation 20:1-3, the Bible says that, one day, Satan will be chained for one thousand years but that day is yet to come. Today, he is not chained . He is moving about. But he can only be in one place at a time. In other words, he is not omnipresent and he is not omniscient and not omnipotent. Only Jesus is, and we give the glory to God for that.

SATAN’S KINGDOM

Now what about the kingdom of Satan? According to Ephesians 6:12, he has officers and administrators. He has people, he has agents all over, that are doing his work for him; prinicipalities, powers. rulers of wicked places in the world and spiritual wickedness. He has themall over and if you want to be sure, you can check them in Daniel 10:10-14. You will see that he has other princes controlling and rulers of the various nations.

THE DEVIL’S METHODS

According to 2 Corinthians 4:3-4, the Bible says:

“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost; In whom the god of this world hath blindedthe minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ , who is the image of Goid should shine unto them”.

Satan devcieves unbelievers, he blindfolds them so that they will not be able to see the truth of the gospel.

#2 False Doctrine

According to 1 Tim. 4:1-2, the Biblke says:

“Now, the spirit speaketh expressly that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirit, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron:”

#3 False Prophets

According to 2 Peter 2:1-2, he has many teachers who are readyto teach these false doctrines. They preach all kinds of adulterated gospels so that unbelievers will not hear the truth.

WHAT DOE HE DO TO THE BELEIVERS

What then does Satan do to those who by the grace of God are true believers, like you and me, who by the grace of God have known the truth and the truth has made them free? In Revelations 12:10, he accuses us before God day and night. If we breath at all, he will report to God. If we are singing and sit down and we yawn, he will say, “Look at the fellow who is praising you”. Or maybe you are praying and you doze off, he will say” God, you see that fellow, he says he needs a miracles, he has no respect for you, look at him”. Satan is constantly doing this day and night. But thank God for Jesus Christ who is sitting at the right hand of the Father, constantly saying, “don’t mind him Daddy. When I was there on death as a human being, I knew what it is to be tired. I also fell asleep in a boat”.

Thank God for Jesus.

And then in 1 Peter 5:8, the Biblke says the devil is always looking for whom he may devour. That is why you must never leave a crack in your armour, because the elders say, that if there is no crack in a wall, the lizard will not be able to enter. So, don’t let there be a crack in your armour because the devil is seek you to destroyyou and he will fail in Jesus name.

Also in 2 Cor. 1:13, the Bible says the devil is always trying to lead people astray even as he led Eve astray, and I pray that he will not succeed in leading you astray.

His Doom

What is the plan of God for Satan’s life? The doom of Satan is predicted in the scriptures. The word of God that is forever settled says in Revelations 12:9-12that the doom of Satan is sealed by the blood of the Lamb. “They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb” and even though we cannot bind him, like I told you earlier; the Biblke says in Revelations 20:1-3, that one day, an angel is going to come down from heaven and bind him, put him in prisonfor one thousand years, but in the meantime,we can resist the devil. The Bible says if we submit ourselves unto God and we resist the devil, he will run from us. He will run as in terror.

In Matt. 25:41, the Bible tells us that the final abode of Satan is the everlasting fireand I amsure you will not go there with him. That is why I am asking you now to go to God in prayernot only now but regularlyand say:

FATHER I SUBMIT MYSELF TO YOU NOW. I RESIST THE DEVIL IN EVERY AREA OF MY LIFE AND I DECREE , DEVIL YOU STAY IN YOUR PLACE . DONT EVER COME NEAR ME IN JESUS NAME.

Talk to the Lord now.
