How Satan Works Part 2

In 2 Corinthians 2:11, the Bible says, "Lest he take advantage of us, for we are not ignorant of his devices." Welcome to our study of how Satan works. We don't want to be taken advantage of by Satan, and we don't want to be ignorant concerning his devices. In this second part of our series on how Satan works, we want to consider some other avenues Satan tries to get into my life and get into yours. Remember the Bible tells us, don't let Satan take advantage of you. Don't be ignorant of his devices, 2 Corinthians 2:11. How does Satan try to work in my life and yours today? We pick up today by realizing that Satan tries to work in our lives by hindering good works. Open your Bible to 1 Thessalonians chapter two with me. We realize that one of the avenues Satan tries to thwart God's plan and discourage Christians is by hindering their good works. Listen to these words, Paul said, "But we brethren haven't been taken away from you for a short time and presence not in heart. Endeavored more eagerly to see your face with great desire. Therefore, we wanted to come to you, even I, Paul, time and again," but hear these words. "But Satan hindered us." Paul wanted to go back and encourage these Christians and teach them more and work with them more- but there was a problem. Satan kept getting in the way of that good work.Click "Download Transcript" to download the entire lesson.
