Reflecting on the Text Though already fallen, every member of the human race faces the same choice as the angels did in eternity past: to fight on God’s side or on Satan’s – remaining neutral is not an option. Remember, Satan is not only interested in devouring Israel, but also “prowls” around like a roaring lion seeking to devour believers. As believers we must be sober and on the alert, resisting and growing in our knowledge of God and His Word. Satan is pleased when people hold any unbiblical view of him, whether they deny his existence, his significance or worship him. The devil always seeks to create confusion about his true nature and purposes. Praise God. Satan’s unending rants to God about the unworthiness of believers are unachievable because of the blood of Jesus and His victory over death. If Satan cannot be successful in his accusations against us, let us also set aside “feelings” of unworthiness and accept His love and forgiveness.
