Do we seriously think we can recognize Satan by looks alone??? Media illustrates differently….
Is this him? No.
What about this one?
No.
How about this?
Definitely not.
This one?
Nope.
Maybe this one???
Not Even Close.
This image is furthest from the truth, too.
2 Corinthians 11:14-15 NLT
“But I am not surprised! Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is no wonder that his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. In the end they will get the punishment their wicked deeds deserve.”
“I ordained and anointed you as the mighty angelic guardian. You had access to the holy mountain of God and walked among the stones of fire. “You were blameless in all you did from the day you were created until the day evil was found in you. Your rich commerce led you to violence, and you sinned. So I banished you in disgrace from the mountain of God. I expelled you, O mighty guardian, from your place among the stones of fire. Your heart was filled with pride because of all your beauty. Your wisdom was corrupted by your love of splendor. So I threw you to the ground and exposed you to the curious gaze of kings. You defiled your sanctuaries with your many sins and your dishonest trade. So I brought fire out from within you, and it consumed you. I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the sight of all who were watching. All who knew you are appalled at your fate. You have come to a terrible end, and you will exist no more.””
Ezekiel 28:14-19 NLT
Satan wants all of us to be hoodwinked by the images of him with horns, red skin, goat faced or etc. because we won’t take him serious and put our guard down. Giving us a false sense of security and thinking we’re in control. He knows all too well to leer us in with promises of milk & honey; prosperity and happiness or whatever we most desire. It’s all empty promises.
“Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour.”
1 Peter 5:8 NLT
Jesus’ words to His disciples…
“The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.”
John 10:10 NLT
That’s exactly Satan’s ultimate desire and goal….Steal, Kill and Destroy Everything. No joke.
If Jesus hadn’t died on that Cross, Our own deaths will be eternally final. Thank you Jesus for fulfilling God’s Will, and by your innocent blood reforged our bond with our Heavenly Father. 💖
