Satan Is Often Most Busy With Us, When... by William Plumer (1869)

Please help us share God's truths and hope in Christ.

“The god of this world has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.” 2 Corinthians 4:4

Though not omniscient, yet Satan knows much that is in our hearts. He is:

skilled in deceiving.
very daring.
dreadfully malignant.

He entered Eden itself, assailed even Christ, quotes Scripture with great readiness (Matt 4:6), and has no compassion on the weak or the ignorant.

Innocence is no barrier against his wiles. He assumes every appearance from that of a roaring lion, to that of an angel of light. He has great ability in deluding men and making them think they are something, when they are nothing.

False religion pleases him as well as total atheism. He rules in the hearts of the children of disobedience. Under his influence men call good, evil; and evil, good.

Satan is always busy.

He never misses a sermon or prayer meeting!
He corrupts our secret devotions.
And he closely watches his prey and tightens his fetters.

He is often most busy with us, when we least think of his presence.

“Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes!” Ephesians 6:11

Words of Wisdom from the Cloud of Witnesses: "Cloud of Witnesses" refers to those in Heaven who have run their races and are now with the Lord. Their words of wisdom are filled with faith, hope, love, and joy that warm our souls. Their words present the eternal truths of God that grow us and give us joy. And their words strengthen our souls, equip our minds, encourage our hearts, and empower us to stand firm in our faith and be motivated, ready, and willing to share the hope we have in Jesus.

Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith...(Hebrews 12:1-2)
