The God of this world is Satan (2Corin 4:4) and the whole world is under His control. Man is born from sin, because of which sin automatically comes into it. Therefore, there is not much difference between Satan and man. But difference comes when you become a believer. So what brings difference between Satan and Believer: -

1. There is a difference with the word - In Matthew 4 we see Satan using the word. That means Satan knows the whole Bible. We too have the Bible, we also know the Word. So where is the difference? In obeying, yes, Satan knows the word but he does not obey it but believer do obey it.

2. There is a difference of light - 2Corin 11:14 says that Satan can transform himself into an angel of light. Jesus told the believers that you are the light of the world (Matthew 5:14). There is light in Satan as well as in the believer, so where is the difference? In the works of light, yes Satan can definitely become a lighting angel, but his works are not of light. On the other hand a believer reveals that light through his good works. By which God is glorified both in earth and heaven.

3. There is a difference in faith - James 2:19 says that devils also believe and tremble. That means Satan also believes. We also believe in God, that’s why we are called believers. Both devil and believers are believing God, where is the difference? In the fruit of faith, yes evil spirits believe but they cannot be saved but the fruit of faith of a believer is salvation and eternal life. So don't be unbelieving but believing (John 20:27).

     Many believers think that they are not Spiritual. This may be because of lack of Prayer, not attending assembly regularly and more. But this is a lie of Satan that He uses to discourage believers.

     The Truth is that you are Spiritual because Spirit of God dwells in you. He dwells in you to Sanctify (Act 2:38). He dwells in you to Seal (Ephesians 4:30). He dwells in you to empower (Act 1:8). He dwells in you to Speak for you (Romans 8:26). He makes you Spiritual in all.

     For Christian both Life and Death is a blessing. Because our life is Christ and death is Gain (Philippians 1:21). Grace of Christ is the principal of Christian Life. That is why the Glory of Christ must be the end of our life.

     How do I live and Die for Christ:-

A. Trust and surrender to God's Plan

B. To depend on body of Christ 

C. Exalt Jesus in every work

D. Hope for eternity

     Whenever you determine a destiny to reach you probably choose the fastest route. But in Spiritual realm many believers choose prayer as last route. For that Bible says you have not because to ask not (James 4:2).

     Today I want to tell you that people who pray in the beginning always reach at their destiny. Because Satan can not hinder this route. 

     May be you have many reasons to not to pray. But I encourage you to adopt one to Pray, because Jesus is seating on the throne of grace to help in your needs (Hebrew 4:16).

Application: - Read the life / testimony of people who get their destiny through Faith and Prayer.      

     Jesus is the only source of Joy, He is full of Joy and He gave His joy to us (John 14:27). He will convert the water of sorrow into fresh wine  (John 2:7-9). This joy will overflow and will multiple when you taste it. 

     God told Adam and Eve that the day they ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, they would surely die (Gen 2:17). But they ate of that fruit and died Spiritually. Previously, they had enjoyed the intimate fellowship with God. But Sin of Disobedience has create the barrier between them and they hide from God. And this Spiritual death had been transferred in all humans.

     Jesus But thanks to Lord Jesus Christ who became mediator between God and me by giving His life on Cross. He shed His precious blood to redeem me. And by faith I Resurrected Spiritually before God. 

King of Syria send his army to fetch servant of God 'Elisha' at night. And when servant of Elisha risen early, he got afraid after saw a great army against them. Then Elisha replied fear not we have more army than they have. And Elisha prayed Lord open his eyes that he may see. And the Lord opened his eyes and he saw that the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha (2King 6:11-18). 

      You too are under God's protection to see that just pray O Lord Open the Eyes of my Heart. 

Prayer - Lord You listen the prayer of your servant Elisha and open the eyes of his young servant. Today I too pray in the Spirit of Elisha that may the Spiritual Eyes of reader open right now in Jesus name so that He/She may see your heavenly protection or grace. Amen.
