So you've got the Spirit, and you're Saved. You've got the Holy Ghost, you are Blessed. You are Saved and Sanctified, you're a child of God. You have been Slain in the Spirit.
You're covered by the blood of Christ. You're a Good Christian.
If you are any of these things or all of these things, you are truly resting in the Lord.
Praise God!
For many of us who are Christians, all of these things are enough, in fact, more than enough to assure us that we have our place in the Lord.
For those of us who feel this way, the Lord has given me a message to open your eyes, hearts and minds to a truth that you must be aware of.
Read the following, you could very well be blessed and redeemed by this message.
Plain and simply put as given by the Lord, you need to KNOW the Word of God. Let me say that one more time, you need to KNOW the Word of God.
Why? Because, you will never, ever succeed in defeating satan unless you personally know the Word of God.
Headline #1: Satan knows the Word of God!
Headline #2: Satan is counting on you not knowing the Word of God.
Headline #3: Satan succeeds in tempting those who do not know the Word of God.
How does this not happen to you, how do you stay out of the headlines with satan? You do it by personally knowing the Word of God.
Jesus gave us the best example of knowing the Word in the book of Matthews chapter 4.
In Ch.4:3; The tempter came to Him and said, "If you are the Son of God, he said, tell these stones to become bread." Ch.4:4; Jesus answered, "It is written:'Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God'."
Now, for anyone other than satan, this would have been enough of a counter to end the situation, however, satan decided to get physical, the Word says, Ch.4:5; Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. Then satan said, Ch.4:6; "If you are the Son of God," he said, "throw your self down. For it is written: "'He will command His angels concerning you, and they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.'"
But Jesus was ready for satan, He came back with this, Ch.4:10; Jesus said to him, "Away from me satan! For it is written: 'Worship the Lord your God, and serve Him only.'"
And in Ch.4:11, we find; "Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended him."
Satan said to Jesus, "Deal or No Deal?"
Jesus Christ said to satan, "No Deal!!"
