WHAT COMES BEFORE A FALL? PART 4 - Dawn1 - 04-19-2012 02:54 AM
SATAN THOUGHT HE COULD BE BETTER THAN GOD HIMSELF. OF COURSE HE WAS WRONG. SATAN WAS DECEIVED. HOW HE EVEN CONCEIVED SUCH A THOUGHT IS BEYOND IMAGINATION. BUT PRIDE BLINDS US TO THE TRUTH AND PREVENTS THE PROUD FROM VIEWING LIFE REALISTICALLY.
"FOR ALL THAT IS IN THE WORLD, THE LUST OF THE FLESH, THE LUST OF THE EYES, AND THE PRIDE OF LIFE, IS NOT OF THE FATHER BUT IS OF THE WORLD" (1 JOHN 2:16).
AS WE KNOW, SATAN HAS NEVER REPENTED. INSTEAD, HE TRIES TO DECEIVE AS MANY OF GOD'S CHILDREN AS POSSIBLE AND DRAG THEM DOWN TO SHARE IN HIS DREADFUL FALLEN STATE.
FATHER GOD, THANK YOU FOR PROTECTING ME FROM HAVING A PRIDEFUL, AND HAUGHTY SPIRIT. FOR I DO NOT WANT TO FALL DOWN LIKE SATAN. I WANT TO ALWAYS BE A PERSON WHO IS APPROACHABLE, AND ALWAYS SEEKING ADVICE THROUGH GODLY COUNSEL. I PRAY TO REMEMBER WHERE YOU HAVE BROUGHT ME FROM. IN JESUS NAME I PRAY. AMEN. LET US PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER! HAVE A BLESSED DAY!
