Be Watchful—Satan Wants to Devour You!

??????????

Do you watch full Satan wants to devour you!,“Be watchful! Your adversary, the Devil, walks about like a roaring lion, seeking to devour someone.”—1 PETER 5:8.

??????????

Faithful angels use their power for good, but Satan uses his power for evil. And Satan surely has great power and influence. The Bible refers to him as “the ruler of this world” and “the god of this system of things.” (John 12:31; 2 Corinthians 4:4)

??????????

Satan even has “the means to cause death.” (Hebrews 2:14) This does not mean that he kills all people directly. So, what does it mean? First, this world is filled with Satan’s hateful and violent attitude. Second, because Eve believed Satan’s lie and Adam disobeyed God, all humans sin and die. (Romans 5:12)

??????????

Satan is, as Jesus called him, “a murderer.” (John 8:44) He really is a powerful enemy. When we oppose Satan, we also oppose all those who support him and who rebel against God’s rule. That includes a large group of other rebellious angels, who are called demons. (Revelation 12:3, 4)

??????????

Many times they have shown that they are much stronger than humans, causing great suffering to them. (Matthew 8:28-32; Mark 5:1-5) Never forget how powerful the demons and their ruler really are. (Matthew 9:34)

??????????

Without JehovahÂ’s help, we could never win our fight against Satan. The only way that Satan can turn people against our loving God, Jehovah, is by deceiving them. (1 John 4:8)

??????????

Satan deceives people so that they are not “conscious of their spiritual need,” that is, they do not realize that they need a relationship with God. (Matthew 5:3) The Devil has “blinded the minds of the unbelievers” so that they cannot see the truth about Jehovah.—2 Corinthians 4:4.

??????????

To be watchful: To be alert to the lies that Satan uses to try to trick us. For example, Satan wants us to believe that we do not live in the last days and that Jehovah does not love us. - Bible Speaks -
