The Tactics of our Enemy, Part 2

  • Through temptation Satan makes sin seem better than it is.
  • Through condemnation Satan makes us feel worse than we are.

Job 1-2 and Zechariah 3 show the devil accusing God's people. Notice Job and the High Priest Joshua were both righteous men, but that doesn't deter the enemy. He whispers his lies (Rev. 12:10).

  • You are garbage
  • You are worthless
  • You should just kill yourself
  • You are guilty
  • You don't deserve to go to church, cause you are a big fat hypocrite!

Don't listen to the devil, because a discouraged believer is a defeated Christian. In tomorrow's post we'll talk about how to overcome the devil's accusations.
