A Prowling Lion

The devil is known by many other names (titles)

One of which is a prowling lion hunger for unsuspecting prey

He is said to be like a prowling eager to kill and destroy

But perhaps we underestimate the full character of the devil

He is also described as the serpent of old who softly spoke lies and planted the seeds of doubt in Eve

Not that Eve was weaker, but rather less experienced since she had been created a little while after Adam so less experienced

Genesis 3:1
Now the serpent was craftier than any beast of the field that the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden?'”

Which is another title he has been given is The Dragoon of Old

While many in this world image the devil to be dressed in red with a pointed tail holding a pitchfork

Which no doubt pleases Satan, as it gives him the freedom to easily deceive and lead them into all kinds of evil darkness without them even knowing

Yet as Christians, we are instructed to wear the armor of God to protect us from the fiery arrows of the enemy

Lest we become entangled and go astray, for he is a real advisor who delights in weakness and exploits our weaknesses to his advantage

Not that the devil is able to hear your thoughts but knows from experience how to use our weaknesses against us

As he did to me recently, piquing my curiosity enough to check out a video

Which Featured a full-bodied young lady wearing a somewhat revealing outfit

In an attempt to arouse my lustful nature, although I managed to avert my eyes from the revealed flesh, I knew that the enemy was stalking close by eager to pounce.

I shudder at just how easily I could have become his next prey, Lord help me to consistently wear your protective armour
