DEVOTIONAL
Recognize When Satan Is At Work
They followed him because he had amazed them for a long time with his magic. Acts 8:11
Just as the apostles worked astonishing miracles through the power of God, Simon the sorcerer was able to do astonishing things through the power of the devil. So how did the apostles handle the situation? Did they sidestep it? Coexist peacefully with it? Say, ‘It’s no big deal’? No, Peter confronted Simon, saying, ‘Repent...[that] your heart may be forgiven’ (v. 22). Today the forces of evil are real and you must know how to deal with them. Jesus said, ‘Behold, I give you the authority...over all the power of the enemy’ (Luke 10:19). The Bible tells us two important things about the demon-possessed man in Gerasa whom Christ healed: 1) The forces of evil within him introduced themselves as ‘Legion...for we are many’ (Mark 5:9). A legion was a well-trained, fully-equipped division of the Roman army that took orders from Caesar. 2) They ‘begged Jesus...not to send them out of the area’ (v. 10). That’s because they’d established a stronghold within him. Understand this: you can’t win spiritual battles with natural weapons. True, blaming Satan for all your problems can be a cop-out. But failing to see him at work gives him the advantage every time. You must be wise and know when you’re dealing with natural, human, psychological problems. But you must also be discerning when you’re dealing with‘principalities...powers...the rulers of the darkness...spiritual hosts of wickedness’ (Ephesians 6:12). How can you overcome them? By taking up ‘the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day’ (Ephesians 6:13).
Prayer
Heavenly Father, help me recognize, and by Your power, deal with the working of Satan around me. Protect me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen
