Now here is a kitty who hisses at me through the screen . . .
but kitty is on the other side of the screen!
He can't do anything to me > with me outside in the light
and the warmth, while kitty is inside in the dark.
It is like this with Satan. If we are in God's love >
"And who is he who will harm you if you
become followers of what is good?"
(1 Peter 3:13)
By the way . . . one guy was reading about how, in Revelation, it says frog-like demons will come out of the mouths of the dragon and the beast and false prophet (Revelation 16:12-14). Ones "might" say this is not relevant to our lives, now.
Well, God says this in His word. And His word . . . "all" His word . . . is "profitable" . . . for now, I would think You mean, LORD our Father > 2 Timothy 3:16-17.
So, how can we profit from reading in the book of Revelation, that frog demons will come out of the mouths of the end-time false prophet and dragon and the beastie???? > > I will offer >>> God has already written that this will happen; so - - - God already knows what Satan will do then: Satan has no secrets or any strategy which is not always fully known by God and fully defeated by God our Father. Satan is not fooling God, at all, at any time, then ! ! (c: So, no evil is any surprise to our Father. We might as well, then, be with Him and like Him, by not being surprised by Satan's stupid nonsense, but always be with our Father ready.
And know that Satan is so fallen, because he was haughty, proud, conceited > for Satan, Heaven was not good enough: how "unbelievable" > how Satan is so conceited that for him Jesus and Heaven are not good enough!! And so all the end-time things of Satan are already known to God and doomed to failure. And so, this can show us how now it is good not to be haughty and therefore doomed to fail in whatsoever we do in pride. But be with God, all the time, with nothing left to our own devices and cleverness and ability which our own egos can worship and glorify.
But enjoy being with God in His love > "'Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.'" (Matthew 11:29)
And know how Satan is like that hissing kitty behind a screen, fully controlled and fully a failure in his fussing and hissing.
And whatsoever we do that God is committed to > this will succeed . . . better than we may think we are trying to do ! ! ! Because our Father is better than we are and always bringing us to better of sharing with Him. But it is most of all about family loving, not only of accomplishments and controlling the devil and wrong people > "nor as being lords over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock." (1 Peter 5:3)
