Topic- Don't Allow Satan Deceive You (Trem Daily Devotional 28 April 2019)
“And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, and cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more…”Revelation 20:2-3 KJV
If you notice in the above passage, he was bound in chains and put inside the bottomless pit, shut up so that he would no more deceive the nations because he goes about with deception. He says things contrary to what God had said and when you buy it, it will manifest. He used that strategy on Eve. After God had just spoken concerning Adam and Eve, the devil came and deceived Eve into eating the same fruit that God said they shouldn’t eat. He said to Eve, ‘has God said’? In other words, this thing that God said, can it really be true? And rather than shut him up, Eve bought it and that resulted in the fall of man.
