A Daily Devotional About the war for your soul… 1 John 3:8 He who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil's work. (NIV) Destruction… Tearing apart… Ripping apart… Tearing down… Total defeat… These ideas are not what we think of when we think about the actions of a loving God. However, God and Satan are at war and have been from the beginning. The power of God is a power of destruction, tearing apart, ripping apart, tearing down, and total defeat when directed at the power of Satan. God and Satan are at war over your soul. You choose sides in this war for your life. You choose which side will win your soul. Every second of your life you are choosing sides in this conflict. In this war for your soul, Satan does not play fair. Satan violates every rule we would call fair. Satan is random, violent, murderous, and takes every life on earth. Satan loves to inflict pain and suffering. No one escapes Satan’s terrible grip. However, you can win out over Satan and his death machine. You can win out by being fair and even handed in all matters. You can win out by being tough-minded and totally unrelenting in doing God’s will rather than your own will. You can win out by being forgiving and kind when you are attacked by the darkness. You can win out by giving love in the face of hate, by giving rather than taking, and by accepting Christ as your savior. |
