Genesis 3:1-5
Now The Serpent (The Serpent of Old/Satan) was more cunning than any beast of the field which The LORD GOD (GOD Almighty) had MADE. And He (The Serpent of Old/Satan) said to The Woman (Eve), “Has GOD (GOD Almighty) indeed said, ‘YOU (Eve) shall NOT EAT of Every Tree of The Garden (The Garden of Eden)’?” And The Woman (Eve) said to The Serpent (The Serpent of Old/Satan), “We (Eve and Adam) may EAT The Fruit of The Trees of The Garden (The Garden of Eden); BUT of The Fruit of The Tree (The Tree of The Knowledge of GOOD and evil), which is in The Midst of The Garden (The Garden of Eden), GOD (GOD Almighty) has SAID, ‘YOU (Eve OR Adam) shall NOT EAT IT, NOR shall YOU (Eve OR Adam) TOUCH IT, Lest YOU (Eve OR Adam) DIE.’” Then The Serpent (The Serpent of Old/Satan) said to The Woman (Eve), “YOU (Eve OR Adam) will NOT Surely DIE. For GOD (GOD Almighty) KNOWS that in The Day YOU (Eve OR Adam) EAT of IT Your (Eve’s OR Adam’s) Eyes will be OPENED, and YOU (Eve OR Adam) will be LIKE GOD (GOD Almighty), KNOWING GOOD and evil.”
Genesis 3:13b-15
The Woman (Eve) said, “The Serpent (The Serpent of Old/Satan) DECEIVED me (Eve), and I (Eve) ATE.” So The LORD GOD (GOD Almighty) SAID to The Serpent (The Serpent of Old/Satan): “Because YOU (The Serpent of Old/Satan) have DONE THIS, YOU (The Serpent of Old/Satan) are CURSED more than all cattle, and more than every beast of the field; on Your (The Serpent of Old’s/Satan’s) Belly YOU (The Serpent of Old/Satan) shall go, and YOU (The Serpent of Old/Satan) shall EAT dust All The Days of Your (The Serpent of Old’s/Satan’s) Life. And I (GOD Almighty) will PUT ENMITY between YOU (The Serpent of Old/Satan’s) and The Woman (Eve), and BETWEEN Your (The Serpent of Old’s/Satan’s) SEED and Her (Eve’s) SEED; He (Eve’s Seed) shall BRUISE Your (The Serpent’s/Satan’s) Head, and YOU (The Serpent of Old/Satan) shall BRUISE His (Eve’s Seed’s) Heel.”
Job 1:6-12
Now there was a day, when The Sons (GOD Almighty’s Holy Angels) of GOD Almighty) came to PRESENT Themselves (GOD Almighty’s Holy Angels) BEFORE The LORD (GOD Almighty), and Satan also came among Them (GOD Almighty’s Holy Angels). And The LORD (GOD Almighty) SAID to Satan, “From where do YOU (Satan) come?” So Satan answered The LORD (GOD Almighty) and said, “From going to and fro on The Earth, and from walking back and forth on it (The Earth).” Then The LORD (GOD Almighty) SAID to Satan, “Have YOU (Satan) considered My (GOD Almighty’s) Servant Job, that there is NONE like Him (Job) on The Earth, a BLAMELESS and UPRIGHT Man (Job), One who FEARS GOD (GOD Almighty) and SHUNS evil?”
So Satan answered The LORD (GOD Almighty) and said, “Does Job FEAR GOD (GOD Almighty) for NOTHING? Have YOU (GOD Almighty) not MADE a HEDGE around Him (Job), around His (Job’s) Household, and around All that He (Job) HAS on Every Side? YOU (GOD Almighty) have BLESSED The Work of His (Job’s) Hands, and His (Job’s) Possessions have INCREASED in The Land. But now, STRETCH OUT Your (GOD Almighty’s) Hand and TOUCH All that He (Job) HAS, and He (Job) will surely CURSE YOU (GOD Almighty) to Your (GOD Almighty’s) Face!” And The LORD (GOD Almighty) SAID to Satan, “Behold, All that He (Job) HAS is in Your (Satan’s) Power; ONLY do NOT lay a hand on His (Job’s) Person.” So Satan WENT OUT from The Presence of The LORD (GOD Almighty).
Isaiah 14:12-14
“How YOU (Satan) are Fallen FROM Heaven, O Lucifer (Satan), Son of The Morning! How YOU (Satan) are CUT DOWN to the ground, YOU (Satan) who weakened The Nations! For YOU (Satan) have said IN Your (Satan’s) Heart: ‘I (Satan) will ASCEND into Heaven, I (Satan) will EXALT My (Satan’s) Throne ABOVE The Stars of GOD (GOD Almighty); I (Satan) will also SIT on The Mount of The Congregation, ON The Farthest Sides of The North; I (Satan) will ASCEND ABOVE The Heights of The Clouds, I (Satan) will be LIKE The Most High (GOD Almighty).’”
Luke 10:18-20
And He (Jesus Christ) SAID to Them (Jesus Christ’s Disciples and Followers), “I SAW Satan Fall LIKE Lightning FROM Heaven. Behold, I (Jesus Christ) GIVE YOU (Jesus Christ’s Disciples) The Authority to TRAMPLE on serpents and scorpions, and OVER All The Power of The Enemy (Satan), and NOTHING shall by ANY means HURT YOU (Jesus Christ’s Disciples). Nevertheless, do NOT rejoice in THIS, that the spirits are SUBJECT to YOU (Jesus Christ’s Disciples), but rather REJOICE because Your (Believers) Names are WRITTEN in Heaven.”
Ephesians 6:11-17
PUT ON The Whole ARMOR of GOD (GOD Almighty), that YOU (Believers) may be able to STAND AGAINST The Wiles of The Devil (Satan). For We (Believers) do NOT Wrestle AGAINST Flesh and Blood (Mankind), but AGAINST Principalities, AGAINST Powers, AGAINST The Rulers of The Darkness of THIS AGE, AGAINST Spiritual Hosts of Wickedness in The Heavenly Places.
Therefore, TAKE UP The Whole ARMOR of GOD (GOD Almighty), that YOU (Believers) may be ABLE to WITHSTAND in The EVIL DAY, and having DONE All, to STAND. STAND therefore, having GIRDED Your (Believers) Waist with TRUTH, having PUT ON The Breastplate of Righteousness, and having SHOD Your (Believers) Feet with The Preparation of The Gospel of Peace (The Gospel of Jesus Christ); ABOVE All, TAKING The Shield of Faith with which YOU (Believers) will be ABLE to QUENCH All The Fiery Darts of The Wicked One (Satan). And TAKE The Helmet of Salvation, and The Sword of The Spirit (The Holy Spirit), which is The WORD (The Holy Bible) of GOD (GOD Almighty).
1 John 3:8
He (Unbelievers) who sins IS of The Devil (Satan), for The Devil (Satan) has sinned from The Beginning. For THIS PURPOSE The Son (Jesus Christ) of GOD (GOD Almighty) was MANIFESTED, that He (Jesus Christ) might DESTROY The Works of The Devil (Satan).
Jude 1:9
Yet Michael, The Archangel (GOD Almighty’s Holy Archangel), in CONTENDING with The Devil (Satan), when He (Michael, GOD Almighty’s Holy Archangel) DISPUTED about The Body of Moses, dared NOT bring AGAINST Him (The Devil/Satan) a Reviling Accusation, but said, “The LORD (GOD Almighty) REBUKE YOU (The Devil/Satan)!”
Revelation 2:12-13
‘These Things SAYS He (Jesus Christ) who has The Sharp Two-Edged Sword: “I (Jesus Christ) KNOW Your Works, and where YOU dwell, where Satan’s Throne IS. And YOU hold fast to My (Jesus Christ’s) Name, and did NOT deny My Faith (The Gospel of Jesus Christ), even in The Days in which Antipas was My (Jesus Christ’s) Faithful Martyr, who was KILLED among YOU, where Satan DWELLS.”’
Revelation 12:7-12
And War BROKE OUT in Heaven: Michael (GOD Almighty’s Holy Archangel) and His (GOD Almighty’s Holy Angels) Angels FOUGHT with The Dragon (Satan); and The Dragon (Satan) and His (Satan’s) angels (fallen angels/demons) FOUGHT, BUT They (Satan and the fallen angels/demons) did NOT prevail, NOR was a place found for Them (Satan and the fallen angels/demons) in Heaven ANY longer. So The Great Dragon (Satan) was CAST OUT, that Serpent of Old, called The Devil and Satan, who DECEIVES The Whole World; He (Satan) was CAST to The Earth, and his (Satan’s) angels (fallen angels/demons) were CAST OUT with Him (Satan).
Then I (John) HEARD a Loud Voice SAYING in Heaven, “Now Salvation, and Strength, and The Kingdom of Our GOD (GOD Almighty), and The Power of His (GOD Almighty’s) Christ (Jesus Christ) have COME, for The Accuser (Satan) of Our Brethren (Believers), who ACCUSED Them (Believers) BEFORE Our GOD (GOD Almighty) Day and Night, has been CAST DOWN. And They (Believers) OVERCAME Him (Satan) BY The Blood of The Lamb (Jesus Christ) and BY The WORD of Their (Believers) Testimony, and They (Believers) did NOT love Their (Believers) Lives to The Death (The Second Death). Therefore Rejoice, O Heavens, and YOU (Believers) who DWELL in Them (The Heavens)! WOE to The Inhabitants (Unbelievers) of The Earth and The Sea! For The Devil (Satan) has COME DOWN to YOU (Unbelievers), having Great Wrath, because He (Satan) KNOWS that He (Satan) has a SHORT TIME.”
Fellow Believers, These Scriptures are NOT every Scripture about Satan, but They (The Scriptures) give Us (Believers) Perspective on Satan and His (Satan’s) Ways. I encourage YOU (Believers) to read and study The Holy Bible for Yourselves (Believers), so that GOD Almighty can GIVE YOU (Believers) some Personal Insight on The Wicked One (Satan), with whom We (Believers) DO Battle.
Please, PUT ON The Full Armor of GOD Almighty and Share The Gospel of Jesus Christ, with EVERYONE who has “Ears to HEAR and Eyes to SEE, The TRUTH!” Amen.PLEASE ENCOURAGE AUTHOR BELOW LEAVE COMMENT ON ARTICLE
