Our Enemy (Part 3)

The devil is trying to kill you.   

Especially if you follow the Lord.

It is written,

Be self controlled, be watchful.  Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

Let’s dissect the word of God:

1. Satan is your adversary.  Your enemy.  This is his name.  This is who he is.
2. Satan is compared to a lion.  A predator is never PASSIVE! 
3. Satan is looking for you.    

YOU!  The one reading these words.

How are you supposed to act right now if you believe these words are from God?

I’ll tell you.

At this moment, as I write, I’m an officer.

Officers where I am are on alert.   

(Or as the word of God says, we are being self controlled and watchful.)

Why?

The Police Department received information stating that a man is on the loose is who is deliberately looking for officers to kidnap and torture.

Do you see?

An enemy is looking for US!

But we are also looking for HIM!

We aren’t just passively sitting around, scared.

He made himself our enemy!

So we’ve made ourselves his enemy!

An enemy is also looking for you.

Look for him too.
