“You were the model of perfection, full of wisdom and exquisite in beauty. You were in Eden, the garden of God. Your clothing was adorned with every precious stone red carnelian, pale-green peridot, white moonstone, blue-green beryl, onyx, green jasper, blue lapis lazuli, turquoise, and emerald— all beautifully crafted for you and set in the finest gold. They were given to you on the day you were created. I ordained and anointed you as the mighty angelic guardian. You had access to the holy mountain of God and walked among the stones of fire. “You were blameless in all you did from the day you were created until the day evil was found in you. Your rich commerce led you to violence, and you sinned. So I banished you in disgrace from the mountain of God. I expelled you, O mighty guardian, from your place among the stones of fire. Your heart was filled with pride because of all your beauty. Your wisdom was corrupted by your love of splendor. So I threw you to the ground and exposed you to the curious gaze of kings. You defiled your sanctuaries with your many sins and your dishonest trade. So I brought fire out from within you, and it consumed you. I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the sight of all who were watching. All who knew you are appalled at your fate. You have come to a terrible end, and you will exist no more.”

[Ezekiel 28:12-19]

He thinks you’re in his spot…that’s why he hates you!

Good Afternoon Beloved,

We don’t like to think that we have an enemy. We would prefer not to think or talk about him at all. Maybe we think that if we don’t acknowledge him, he will just go away. I doesn’t work like that. We have a very real adversary who hates us for no other reason other than we are treasured by God. That’s it. Whether we have a worldwide ministry that leads millions to Christ, or a family ministry that speaks into the hearts of our children, it makes no difference to him. His desire is to stop us… to shut down whatever God has put in our heart to do. Even if we never did a single thing for the Kingdom of God ever… he would still hate us. Why? Well, we have something that he will never have… the heart of the Father. We have something that he will never experience… forgiveness, restoration, reconciliation… peace with God. He is on a short leash, operating under a short lease. His time is just about up. The Bible gives us a glimpse of his future:

What a comedown this, O Babylon! (Lucifer) Daystar! Son of Dawn! Flat on your face in the underworld mud, you, famous for flattening nations! You said to yourself, ”I’ll climb to heaven. I’ll set my throne over the stars of God. I’ll run the assembly of angels that meets on sacred Mount Zaphon. I’ll climb to the top of the clouds. I’ll take over as King of the Universe!” But you didn’t make it, did you? Instead of climbing up, you came down— Down with the underground dead, down to the abyss of the Pit. People will stare and muse: ”Can this be the one Who terrorized earth and its kingdoms, turned earth to a moonscape, Wasted its cities, shut up his prisoners to a living death?”

That is good news for us. There is coming a day, when his works will cease, and we will look at him and marvel that he was the one he caused so much chaos. A good reminder, when the enemy wants to remind us of our past, we need to remind him of his future.

That Beloved is Good News !

….. U Blessed!

Have A Fabulous Day!
