Know Your Enemy

Satan uses people and circumstances, but they are not our real enemy; Satan is. He finds things and people through whom he can work and delights in watching us fight and war without even realizing he is the source.

We need to look beyond what we see or initially feel and seek to know the source of our problems. Usually we blame people and become angry with them, which only complicates and compounds the problem. When we behave in this manner, we are actually playing right into Satan's hands and helping his plans succeed. We also blame circumstances and sometimes God, which also delights Satan.

Our number one goal in life as believers should be Christlikeness.

Go through each day without hassling anybody, without criticizing anybody, without trying to put anybody down. These characteristics are from Satan. We should know Satan's character so we do not listen to or believe his lies.

Blessings,
Dalinda
