Jan 28 - Satan Is An Eternal But Defeated Litigant. Don't Give Him A Chance / A Footstool In 2024.
🕯 Theme: Satan Is An Eternal But Defeated Litigant. Don't Give Him A Chance / A Footstool In 2024.
📖 Texts: Daniel 7: 10 & 26, Zechariah 3:1-3, Ephesians 4:27, Revelation 12: 9–10.
> Introduction:
> We Are In Foundational Stages Of The Year.
Watchout How You Begin To Run Round With The Theme For The Year.
> A Solid Foundation Need To Be Laid.
>> The World In Which We Live Is Occupied By Three Groups Of People.
1. The Jews > Physical Seed Of Abraham.
2. The Gentiles > Anyone Who Is Neither A Jew Or A Christian.
3. The Church/ Body Of Christ Ie Believers In Christ.
> Satan Fights Each Of These Groups Differently.
> Whiles Satan Has Controlling Power Over The Gentiles And Jews, He Does Not Have The Same Over The Church.
> Satan's Power Over The Church Was Broken By The Sacrifice That Christ Made On The Cross > Hebrews 2: 14 – 18.
When It Comes To The Church/ The Believer In Christ, Satan Knows That His Power ( His Rights ) Over The Church Has Been Eternally Broken.
So The Only Way He Fights The Church/ Believer Is Through Legalism And Litigations Because He Is A Litigant > Someone Involve In A Case Being Discussed In A Court Of Law.
Hence His Litigant Nature Expressed In Rev. 12 : 9 - 10.
And Manifested In Zechariah 3: 1 – 3.
Satan Only Look For Loopholes And Weaknesses In The Believer > Job 1 : 6 - 12.
> Satan Was At The Party Of Jobs Children V 6
> What Was He Present There Doing? Looking For A Loophole To Launch His Attack.
> 7 > What Was Satan Roaming About On The Earth For ? 1 Peter 5 : 8 Gives The Answer Ie Seeking.
Someone To Devour > Hence Looking For A Loophole To Launch His Attack.
Genesis 4 : 6 - 7
1. That Is Why We Are Being Advise Not To Give Satan ( The Accuser ) A Chance > Footstool > Place ( Kjv ) > Greek Topos > Place, Any Portion Or Space Marked Off.
# Hence Don't Give Satan A Footstool ( Space , Chance ) By Anger/ Offence/ Bitterness/ Unforgiveness/ Lust/ Immorality/ Disobedience/ Rebellion/ Unbelief/ Fear Etc.
> Many Things People Suffer Or Go Through In Life Is A Debt They Are Paying.
> Many Things People Suffer In Marriages, Health, Relationship, Finances, Delays, Near Success, Close But Far Etc Are All Debts They Are Paying.
# People Are Paying These Debts Because Somebody Gave Satan A Footstool > An Ancestor > A Parent > An Intimate Friend > A Husband > A Wife Etc

I. Abraham Paid For His Rash Actions In Trying To Help God In Fulfilling His Promise Of Childbirth > Genesis 16.
Ii. Moses Paid For His Rash Mouth That Spoke Out Of Anger > Numbers 20 : 8 - 12 > Psalm 106:33.

Iv. David Paid Dearly When He Ignore Going To War But Sat At Home> 2 Samuel 11: 1.

> Satan Will Force A Price On Your Thoughts/ Words/ Actions/ Lifestyle
> Satan And His Agents Are Debt Collectors.
> Note, The Strength Of Satan In The Believers Life Is The Footstool You Give Him
> How Long Satan's Hold And Influence Will Be Or Remain In The Believers Life Is How Long You Give Him The Footstool.
5. Remember Satan ( Until Jesus Comes ) Remains As A Debt Enforcer And Collector
I. Your Lifestyles And Actions Leaves A Debt Behind You.
Ii. So What Debt Are You Leaving For Your Future And Your Descendants Behind You.
Iii. Be A Changemaker > A Breaker Of Records In Your Generation And Family.

Iv. The Need For Pastor's To Preach And Teach Tough > Challenge, Rebuke, Correct, Convict Etc.
> Is To Make The Impossible That Your Parents And Ancestors Have Created For You Through Debt Payment To Become Possible For You.
Ie Because The Extent To Which Our Ancestors, Parents, We Ourselves ( In Our Worldly Days ) Went With The Devil, With The World, With Covenants, Sacrifices But In Christ We Are Just Lukewarm.
