“Stay sober, stay alert! Your enemy, the Adversary, stalks about like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.”
1 Peter 5:8 CJB
The point of this verse is that we are to be on guard at all times because the Adversary (Satan) is extremely crafty!
“Now the serpent (Satan) was more crafty than any wild animal which Adonai, God, had made. He said to the woman, Did God really say, ‘You are not to eat from any tree in the garden’?”
Genesis 3:1 CJB
We all know what happened to Adam and Eve, deceived by the adversary! We all need to be careful of the enemy! Why? Because he is really craftier than all of us and is always looking for ways to cast doubt, deceive and cause havoc in the world!
“It happened one day that the sons of God came to serve Adonai, and among them came the Adversary [Hebrew: Satan]. Adonai asked the Adversary, Where are you coming from? The Adversary answered Adonai, From roaming through the earth, wandering here and there.”
Job 1:6-7 CJB
Two things to take in here: Every time believers get together, Satan shows up to see who he can stumble! Also Satan is always roaming around seeing whom he can deceive! We just need to be alert and studying the word of God so we are always able to defend ourselves from his attacks!
May your day be richly blessed!
Shabbat Shalom!
