According to Job 41, God told Job that Satan is a man, and God cannot lie. God is not
a man and he created Satan, so he must know all about him. Whenever we have a battle
directly with Satan, God said "Lay thine hand upon him, remember the battle do nothing
more" that is pretty plain. You will have battles, scars, Job had, he lost everything he
had, a sickness that was hard to explain, he had funerals galore, all his ten children died,
that is sorrow more than a man could bear, his wife despised him, so did all his
friends, but thank God he had Almighty God on his side. Job 23:10, he said but he
knoweth the way that I take when he hath tried me I shall come forth as gold. At
least he trusted God with his life, and he knew he was being tried, that is Victory
right there, he was living by faith.
Job 41:9-15 - No one can stand up against him it is useless to try he is higher than
man who was made lower that the Angels so anyone who tries in his own strength
will lose the battle.
Thank God for sending Jesus Christ who is willing to fight for his own and thank
Jesus for coming to fulfill the Father's Will.
The question is canst thou draw out leviathan with a hook in his nose or bore his jaw
through with a thorn, Verse 2.
As we read this through one thing is plain mankind cannot fight with him except they have
the Spirit of God to help, he is an evil man, but God is able if we will put our trust in him.
We cannot make a Covenant with him Verse 4, take him for a servant forever, make a
banquet of him or put him amongst the merchant Verse 6. We cannot full his skin with
barbed iron or his head with fish spears Verse 7. When God uses anyone against
him and he does, this battle goes on forever, this is an opportunity to be baptized
with the Baptism of Fire and you don't have to do anymore, thank God Verse 8,
your work is finished on the earth.
The Baptism of Fire spoken in Hebrews 6:2, speaks of Baptisms of which the Baptism of
fire is the giving up of your life for the Kingdom's sake and this is literal and true and
glorious Verse 3:9-10. This leaves us with a question, who then is able to stand before
me? The answer is the Spirit filled believer who is an overcomer. (Part 1).
Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of
my doors, Proverbs 8:34.
I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will
say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. Habakkuk 2:1.
