Avoiding The Evil One
Good Morning Tuesday....
Father Thank You for this NEW Day. Please grant us TRUTH, WISDOM, DISCERNMENT, UNDERSTANDING, and KNOWLEDGE. Father we ask this so that we will not be conformed to this world, but TRANSFORMED by the renewing of our MINDS. In YESHUA, JESUS CHRIST'S Name. Amen.
- Avoiding The Evil One
Unfortunately our ancestors Adam and Eve fell prey to the evil one's tricks. While we are just as susceptible as our super-great grandparents were, Our Father Gives Us His Word To Prepare Us When That Battle Comes. First we must be able to recognize when it is the evil one, his tricks, and know the stark contrast between his ways and Our Father's Ways. The Full Armor of God is our best defense against the evil one. The first thing you put on in The Full Armor of God? The Belt of Truth... God's Word.
According to Yeshua, Jesus Christ Our Savior, the evil one is the current ruler of this world. Adam gave his crown away to the evil one and by God's Divine Rule It Was Allowed. Fortunately for us, Our Father Can Use Anything For His Good and All Things Work For The Good Of Those Who Love Him. Whew! Thank God! With that in mind, let's take a look at what God's Word Has To Say about the evil one. The more of God's Word we study about the matter, the more we are protected against the deceptions that our ancestors fell victim. As we read through The Scriptures today, may we all gain more Truth, Wisdom, Discernment, Understanding, and Knowledge so we may be able to stand against "the wiles of the devil." We ask this Father in Your Mighty and Perfect Son Yeshua, Jesus Christ Our King's Name. Amen.
Our Father Is Always Faithful And Will Protect You. Arm Yourself With God Almighty:
“But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.”
II Thessalonians 3:3
Yeshua, Jesus Our Savior, Prayed For Us To Be Delivered From The Evil One and He Was The Most Righteous Man To Ever Walk The Face Of The Earth. The Prayer of A Righteous Man Avail Much. How Much More Then Will God's Perfectly Righteous Son Avail In His Prayer:
“I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the evil one.”
John 17:15
“The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.”
James 5:16
Our Savior Showed Us How To Pray and Ask For Deliverance From The Evil One:
“And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.”
Matthew 6:13
God's Word and Our Savior Tell Us To Keep It Simple. Anything More Is From The Evil One Trying To Deceive:
“But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’ For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.”
Matthew 5:37
Our Father Tells Us To Do Good and Don't Follow The Ways Of The Evil One. We Are To Be "Lights" to the world:
“Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men.”
Romans 12:17
Finally, Put On The Full Armor Of God So You May Be Able To Stand Against The Wiles of The Evil One:
“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints— and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.”
Ephesians 6:10-20
