THE DEVIL'S CHESS GAME

TODAY'S SCRIPTURE: “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour” (1 Peter 5:8).  DAILY FIRE! - Chrsit For All Nations The devil is no match for the mind of the Holy Spirit. Satan invented a human chess game, and has played this game for thousands of years. The devil anticipates our every move, and he will checkmate us ten moves ahead. Satan has experience from the time of Adam onward, and he knows every trick of human ingenuity on the board. You cannot produce faith by the wisdom of words. The devil always has a counter-statement for whatever you say. The gospel did not come out of somebody’s head. We have to move into the divine dimension, where the enemy cannot follow us. The devil is no match for the mind of the Holy Spirit. If we plan, preach, witness, and evangelize as men, Satan will foil us. He can handle psychology and propaganda.  The answer is: move in the Spirit and preach the gospel as it is. Then the arch-confuser becomes confused, and he cannot follow the game at all. It is so good to know that you are on God’s team. Taken from Daily Fire Devotional: 365 Days in God’s Word by Reinhard Bonnke. Copyright © 2016 by Reinhard Bonnke.
