THE DEVIL'S MAIN WEAPON AND HOW TO DISARM IT

The name of the devil Satan in hebrew ....simply means the opposer or the accuser.This is why his referred to in the bible(rev 12 10)as the accuser of the brethren.

You see before Satan can do the things his notorious for(Steal...kill...destroy)Be it stealing your joy...or your loved ones...or even attacking you physically,He must succeed in one part first.He must succeed in accusing you.He must be able to convince you that you are a sinner and that God is angry with you...until you do something to restore your relationship(works).

Now...Jesus declares you righteous.Even when you sin or when you fail,God still sees you as righteous.This is because Jesus became sin for you on the cross without ever committing a sin,the same way you are pronounced righteous APART FROM YOUR WORKS.Romans (3 28...5 1)and all over the new testament.

Friends You are LEGALLY RIGHTEOUS because God did not,does not and will never go easy on sin.Not at one moment.But your sins(past present and future)He put them and punished them in the body of Christ.Then there is nothing to punish you for.Your judgement has been passed already as RIGHTEOUS.

Now what is left for you to do is to believe...When you sin...when you fall,will you listen to God's declaration of you as His beloved child...or will you listen to Satan's accusations??
My friend.God calls you righteous.Then that's what you are.No matter what you,the world or the devil says,God has the final word.Now believe it.

This is why we(believers made righteous by faith) are completely against condemning others when they sin.Jesus did not condemn zaccheaus nor did He condemn the woman caught in adultery,because CONDEMNATION IS THE WORK OF THE DEVIL.It is the devil's work to condemn and accuse.Jesus cannot stand for that one bit.It is Sad that today we find many churches being too quick to judge and condemn those who don't match up to their standards...yet the church itself cannot match up to God's Holiness by their doings/works but only by imputation/receiving righteousness by faith.

Notice in this picture,the devil is POINTING AT YOU!!!!and not Jesus.Because He knows that in and of yourself,you are lacking and you will always be lacking but when you reckon yourself in Christ,then you have just killed off ALL of the devil's methods.

So will you stand accused as the devil says or righteous as the LORD says...the choice will always be yours.

Remember romans 8 1"There is therefore now NO CONDEMNATION for those that are in Christ Jesus.
