Job 1:7

Job 1:7

King James Version (KJV)

⁷ And the Lord said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

Satan has, since I can remember, been portrayed as an animal-like beast that stays in a dungeon. In the bible it is completely different, Satan is spirit that can walk amongst us if he wanted to as in Job 1.

Satan is always trying to find reasons as why God should not bless you and instead find a way to bring you down.

God has given us many warnings as to how to keep from being devoured by the enemy. Do not be fooled in to believing that Satan has no authority on earth-the world system is controlled by Satan. 

**side note: I found that many people, both Christians and non-Christians have a hard time or just choose not to use the word Satan, because of fear or feeling silly for using it. The name has been used so much in folklore that it has become more of a name for the “boogey man” rather than an actual demonic spirit.

Just because you don’t use the word Satan does not mean he doesn’t exist.

This is even more of a reason to follow God and keep His commandments, none of us want to live a life of constant ups and downs because we fall victim to the traps the Satan has set up for each of us….
