The Unrelenting Adversary: Satan’s Ongoing Obstruction
From the Dawn of Day to the Midnight Hour
Since the dawn of humanity, a relentless spiritual battle has raged on. Satan, the ultimate opponent, has ceaselessly sought to hinder our progress, exploiting every vulnerability and sabotaging our efforts to serve God. Whether we toil in the fields of ministry or build walls of faith, Satan relentlessly labors to dismantle our endeavors.
The Early Days of Faith
When we first turn to Jesus Christ, Satan unleashes fierce conflicts, attempting to disrupt our newfound faith. As we navigate the early days of our spiritual journey, he endeavors to undermine the completeness of our character, targeting the very virtues that define us.
Pride Goes Before a Fall
Beware of boasting about your integrity, for Satan will inevitably test your virtue. If you’ve walked consistently, expect him to direct his efforts against your strongest qualities. Your faith, meekness, and humility will be attacked, and even your prayers will be met with resistance.
Satan’s Tactics
The adversary is cunning, attacking our persistence and weakening our faith to prevent us from receiving God’s blessings. He obstructs Christian efforts, stirring up opposition whenever there’s a revival of religion. From Ezra and Nehemiah’s labor to our own spiritual endeavors, Satan is ever vigilant, seeking to hinder our progress.
A Sign of Spiritual Warfare
But take heart! When Satan hinders us, it’s a testament that we’re on the Lord’s side, doing His work. In His strength, we’ll emerge victorious, triumphing over our adversary.
