SUMMARY:Revelation 12:12
DESCRIPTION:Revelation 12:12 Therefore rejoice\, ye heavens\, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you\, having great wrath\, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. (KJV) \nAre you desperate? \nHave you ever watched a sword fight or fencing duel? It’s like a dance with calculated and precise moves. For each step the challenger takes\, there is a comparable step the defender has to take in order to stay safe. It is life or death\, and both participants are aware. Just like the sword fight\, any situation that may cost you your life makes you desperate. The devil wants your life. This makes you desperate as you battle with him. Desperate times call for desperate measures. Don’t let the devil catch you off guard; he is desperate as well. \nRevelation 12:12b “Woe to the earth and the sea\, because the devil has come down to you in great wrath\, knowing that he has only a short time [remaining]!” (AMP) \nNot only does he have a short amount of time\, he knows he will not win. \nRevelation 20:10 And the devil who had deceived them was hurled into the lake of fire and burning brimstone (sulfur)\, where the beast (Antichrist) and false prophet are also; and they will be tormented day and night\, forever and ever. (AMP) \nHis strategy is to take as many with him as he can. He is unrelenting in his pursuit of you. Image yourself in a sword fight with him. He will attack\, lunge\, plot\, plan\, strategize\, beat and graze. He wants to create what he hopes to be your demise. He has watched you and recorded your responses to difficult situations. He knows where your buttons are and strategically pushes them. \n1 Peter 5:8b That enemy of yours\, the devil\, prowls around like a roaring lion [fiercely hungry]\, seeking someone to devour. (AMP) \nYou have to be on a reconnaissance mission continually; know the enemy’s position before he is upon you. \n1 Peter 5:8a Be sober [well balanced and self-disciplined]\, be alert and cautious at all times. (AMP) \nBe as desperate as he is. \nLuke 21:36 “But keep alert at all times [be attentive and ready]\, praying that you may have the strength and ability [to be found worthy and] to escape all these things that are going to take place\, and to stand in the presence of the Son of Man [at His coming].” (AMP) \nBe on guard. \n1 Thessalonians 5:6 So then let us not sleep [in spiritual indifference] as the rest [of the world does]\, but let us keep wide awake [alert and cautious] and let us be sober [self-controlled\, calm\, and wise]. (AMP) \nKnow your weak spots. \n2 Corinthians 11:3-4 But now I’m afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent’s clever lies\, your thoughts may be corrupted and you may lose your single-hearted devotion and pure love for Christ. 4 For you seem to gladly tolerate anyone who comes to you preaching a pseudo-Jesus\, not the Jesus we have preached. You have accepted a spirit and gospel that is false\, rather than the Spirit and gospel you once embraced. How tolerant you have become of these imposters! (TPT) \nDon’t move your buttons\, turn them off. Ask God to help you stand as He deals with your weak spots. See yourself in a duel for your life. When he thrusts\, you parry and riposte. \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I want to be passionate in my pursuit of You at all times. I repent for only being desperate when I am in the midst of what I perceive to be an overwhelming situation. I should be desperate every day. I want my unrelenting pursuit of You to cause me to see the enemy coming before he gets close. You have taught me\, in order to increase my hunger for You\, I must discipline myself to fast and pray at all times. I see what my obedience to Your instruction has done in my life so far. I will continue to do what is necessary. I want to see what the devil’s next trap is and where it’s located. Then I won’t step into it; I will dismantle it. I want to fend off the attacks of the enemy without missing a beat. I want to put the enemy on guard for me. Though these are not simple tasks\, I know You can transform me. I believe You want transformation for me\, and every believer. Thank You for shaping us into the image You had for us all before the foundation of the world…\n \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:
