Publisher's Synopsis
The devil is always on the prowl looking how he can destroy the lives of God's people. One of his most powerful weapons is deception whereby people end up believing his lies. We must know that every Christian can fall into this trap and no one is immune from it. He also deceives believers into thinking that they cannot be forgiven when they fall into sin. He makes the person feel like they are worthless and not good enough to approach God's throne and ask for forgiveness. He starts reminding them of their past and other sins they committed and if Christians believe these lies, they can easily backslide and fall into more sin and drift further from God. Eventually the person that is being deceived will begin to think that whatever sin they have committed is greater than the shed blood of Jesus Christ that was given for the remission of their sins. Believers should know that there is nothing more powerful than the blood of Jesus. The devil's plan is to steal kill and destroy, but God has a greater plan through His Son and that is to restore mankind so that they can enjoy abundant life. The way to defeat the devil is to resist him. Satan must flee because he cannot match the power of God. We need to remember that according to God's Word the devil is the accuser of the brethren. It is not God who reminds a person of their past. It is Satan who does not want one to see God as a loving forgiving Father who is ready to welcome His children with open arms.
