What in the Hell and earth is satans power P. 2

Part 2 

Satan exercises his limited authority and dominion by way of a hierarchy, in different geographical regions, and in a militaristic fashion or strategy.

In Matthew 4, Satan legitimately offers Jesus the kingdoms of the world. 

Plural… kingdoms… there are certain levels and kingdoms that satan has a limited power over. 

Satan exercises his otherworldly dominion by way of a hierarchical, geographical, and militaristic strategy.

You can see this most dramatically in Ephesians 6

12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places

SO there are multiple layers to satans power… there are hierarchies like in the military, there are different geographical regions, and different military types of attacks…

But notice the next few verses.

14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth (The truth to see through the strategies of satan), having put on the breastplate of righteousness (again to see through his strategies), 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel (no matter where you go geographically you bring the peace of God) of peace; 16 above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. (you can defend against his actual attacks) 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; (so now we have Gods fighting plan and his weapon to do warfare) 18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints
