MESSAGE: SATAN GIVES AND TAKES
Text: Gen 3: 22 – 24 - And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever: Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken. So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
MESSAGE
In Gen 3:22 – 24, the old serpent, that is, the devil gave our fore parent apple and he collected Garden of Eden from them, we are all familiar with this story, this was what brought death to all living things. Satan goes to and fro searching for whom to devour, he is ready to give out any earthly things for what he knows is most important to you.
Remember Judas, a disciple of Jesus, Satan gave him covetousness and money, he later took away his heaven in Luke 22: 47. Also he gave King Solomon lots of wives and concubine and he took away his friendship with God (1 King 2:2) Likewise Satan offered King Saul lots of cattle, goats and wealth; he took his kingdom from him (1 Sam 15:10-28)
Therefore, brethren, what is that thing that you adore most, that thing you cherish? Hope it’s not the Devil’s offer for you? Don’t forget, he will definitely take something in return, please watch and pray and set your gaze to God alone. May we not be rejected on the last day in Jesus Name Amen.
