    More on the accuser of our souls

    Revelation 12:9-11

    9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

    10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.

    11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

    WHEW. Let's meditate on this for a bit. The focus here seems primarily on the Tribulation saints; I cannot say for sure if the first few years in heaven he is constantly accusing us; or focusing on those on earth but I would tend to say both and possibly even more on the former since he will no doubt not be gleeful that mortal man is glorified and waiting to rule and reign on the earth. No doubt it will be a great moment when he finally gets the boot. Some would say this speaks of the past and Satan is already bound; then I would have to say much of what I'm going through is my own insanity but to avoid being untoward with my audience I'll let the readers decide the matter for themselves.

    A lot of people like to debate why Satan had to fall and is unredeemable; etc. After going through this crap for a few years (and possibly some up there in heaven have had thousands of years of this) no doubt this won't be something we ponder. I don't think anyone can add any words to describe this level of evil.

    It is essential especially in this hour to have the full armor of God on. I would ask the readers especially those struggling to see if indeed the enemy has pierced your spiritual armor and if you are walking around looking like you've been in a swordfight in your soul. Again only His children can be strengthened in this way and assist others who struggle
