Dear Satan: You Are The Reason Why Everyone Is Confused
Dear Satan,
Confusion was born the day you rebelled. In fact you are the father of lies and confusion. You know confusion all to well and you have done a masterful job at using it against humanity. No one knows what to believe or even worse people believe lies. I can picture you laughing at the fact that we are all running around like chickens with our heads cut off in search of truth. This is exactly how you want it and unfortunately you have made it ridiculously difficult for people to see truth.
In your world nothing is what it seems. Why are you trying so hard to sow lies, confusion, and chaos among us humans? Well, I know the answer. Many however, don't. You have an agenda. You want control, power, prestige, and glory. The coup you led failed miserably. You had it all and more but you became greedy. This was your fall. Your pride and your ego cost you everything and you will never make it back to your previous high position. It's impossible for you to do so at this point. You've gone too far and now you are attempting to take us humans down with you.
All these religions. All these beliefs. All these shiny objects to stroke our egos like you want yours stroked. All the different ways to ultimate satisfaction and fulfillment. You have created a buffet of choices for us to choose for our lives. What you have failed to mention to all of us is that death is waiting on the other side of all the doors except 1.
We better choose wisely then.
This is the conundrum that humanity is left in. What do we choose? Which way do we go? What is truth? The work of yours hands is evidenced by this utter confusion. There are even those that say you don't exist. Well... I still don't know how you've managed to pull that trick off. All I can say is that people really are loving the twisted kool-aid you've concocted. But there is hope. Sooner than you think your childlike games will stop. Right now as we speak you are ramping up your forces to create an even bigger avalanche of confusion. But in the end it won't be enough. Remember that the One you are fighting against is greater and as a matter of fact he created you. The fact that you will lose eats at you. You can't stand it. So now you are trying to kill and confuse all of us.
Your world system although appearing to become stronger is actually crumbling before your very eyes. The One is coming and you know good and well it is inevitable. You can't stop this. The days of your rule on Earth are numbered. So go ahead and put me on wanted posters all across the world. Don't forget who's on my team. We will win. Good will ultimately beat evil and truth will conquer lies.
------------------BTW, you must've forgot-------------------
Theatricality and deception are powerful agents to the uninitiated... but we are initiated, aren't we devil? Members of God's Family! And you betrayed us!
I'll be writing you again because I have loads of ammo I need to spew in your direction. You have confused people long enough and my mission is to expose you and your life threatening schemes.
Soon it will be our turn to hold the game...
Awesome idea with than banana with a snake inside. I think this banana should depict the fruit in the garden, better than the apple we have been told since our childhood.
1 Corinthians 14 vs 13
''God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.' '
God is definitely not the one trying to confuse you, its surely the devil.
2 Corinthians 2 vs 11
''. . . that we would not be outwitted by Satan; for we are not ignorant of his designs.''
One of the most sobering facts about life is that all humans have a supernatural enemy whose aim is to use pain and pleasure to make us blind, stupid, and miserable — forever. The Bible calls him “the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world . . . the accuser” (Revelation 12:9–10), “the ruler of this world” (John 12:31), and “the god of this age” (2 Corinthians 4:4).
He is our “adversary [who] prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour” (1 Peter 5:8). Yet, in the most appalling and unwitting bondage, the whole world willingly “follows the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience” (Ephesians 2:2). At his most successful, his subjects march obliviously to destruction, and take as many with them as they can.
Let's not be deceived by this adversary, let's know the truth of God's word. Amen.
Yea I'm not sure where the apple idea came from but we don't know for sure what kind of fruit it was
I wasn't expecting the banana as I scrolled down, so it took me by surprise! Definitely a neat idea.
John 8 vs 44
“When he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies”
The first time Satan appears in the Bible in Genesis 3, the first words on his lips are suspicious of the truth (“Did God say, You shall not eat of any tree in the garden?”). And the second words on his lips were a subtle falsehood (“You will not die”).
John says that Satan “has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him”.
We are dealing with the essence of falsehood and deception.
But, God intends that part of our preparation for heaven be a life of warfare with this liar, and all of hell. He calls it a “good warfare” and a “good fight” as seen in 1 Timothy 6:12. It is good, not because we might be killed (which we might! — Revelation 2:10), but because these fire-fights refine the gold of our faith, in life and death.
It makes us get closer to God, even though the devil wanted otherwise.
God is the great General in this warfare. He has given us the walkie-talkie of prayer to call for help. He said in His word, “Take . . . the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times”
He sees behind enemy lines, and knows exactly the strategies that will be used against us. He has written them down in a wartime manual “so that we would not be outwitted by Satan.” The reason we will not be outwitted is that “we are not ignorant of his designs”. We refuse to be caught off guard.
Everything that comes out of his mouth is a lie.
Very exceptional post and illustrations i must say. The devil decieves a lot of us with enticing things but deep down it is corrupt and deadly.From the beginning, Satan has been a liar. He told his first lies to Eve, to deceive her and draw her away from God (Genesis 3:1, 4). He was the first liar, which makes him "the father of lies
he takes God's truth and twists or contradicts it so that people are led away from Him. God is love (1 John 4:7–8). But Satan says "how can a loving God allow so much suffering?" God says Jesus is the only way to heaven (John 14:6). Satan says "a good person of any belief system can get there." Jesus spoke of everlasting torment for those who reject Him (Matthew 25:46). But Satan says "there's no hell." God claims to exist, and to be a personal Being that interacts with us (Hebrews 11:6). But Satan says "God is dead."
Unfortunately, since we are finite and fallen, we are susceptible to these lies. So, Satan continues to use them, and rehash even the original lie he told ("Did God really say…?") in order to get us off track. The Bible is attacked often and viciously by false religions and worldly men who want us to think that the Bible is not literal, is not authoritative, is not reliable. Why do so many people put so much thought and effort into contradicting the Bible? Because Satan is working to convince us that God is the liar—and that is the ultimate lie.
Thank you fro bringing this up. This is a very important topic and if we dont study deep down to find the truth in our bibles, we might be confused by this beast. Thank God for the Holyspirit that giveth understanding. We now know that we have the mind of God. God bless you. How is your health, hope you have fully recuperated.
Satan always presents an alternative to the truth. This is why he is so deadly.
And thanks for asking about my health. I am feeling worlds better than I did a couple of months ago. This is only the beginning. And I would say that it's still an ongoing process but I am hopeful that I will get back extremely healthy.
Sorry for the late reply. Very true @humanearl. Satan would rather set forth false ideas about himself; that he does exist but he’s something less than what he really is. Some would imagine him to be a sort of a mythological figure representing general evil. Others would see him as a satin-suited, horned, red, forked-tail, pitchfork, sort of degraded fairy-tale monster. Others would see him as somebody to be feared, and somebody to torment Christians, from whom we have to run and go somewhere to get delivered. Believe me, Satan would rather be non-existent, and if he can’t be non-existent, at least in the mind of a man, he would certainly like to be, at least, invisible in his reality. So he masks himself and the Bible unmasks him. It’s amazing that even those who claim to worship Satan are really not worshiping the Satan that exists, but a manufactured Satan that Satan himself uses to trap men. He is a deceiver. He is the master deceiver of the universe.
There is a lot to take home from this. The pics alone really spoke to me before i even started reading. God bless you hugely for talking about this. Who wasnt spoken to.
You know, We don’t let our feelings or thoughts or Satan’s lies dictate what is true. God’s word is truer than anything we feel, think or see. Satan tries to cloud our thinking, tries to make us think that God is depriving us from something. But it is God who created us and loves us enough to die for us. In dealing with Satan’s lies, you have to know the truth.
You have to know His Word before it will set you free. We are told to resist the devil, “firm in your faith…” (1 Peter 5:9) Faith is not a feeling. It is a choice that we must make to take God at His Word. To gain freedom in spiritual battle, we take those thoughts, feelings and temptations, and ask, “What does God’s Word say about this?” In John 17, right after Jesus prayed to the Father, “that you protect them from the evil one,” do you know what He said right after that? He said, “Sanctify them in the truth. Your word is truth.”
Keep on sharing more with us. I am encouraged whenever i see your posts. Keep touching lives Friend.
Thanks for your words. I am so happy I get the opportunity to share great things with people. I want to help as many as possible.
We are very familiar with the word of Satan From that adolescence to my parents, I know that there is someone who is Satan, who is involved in misleading us with his party. He always quips us in our heart, makes us sinful. He is our constant enemy.
There is good and evil. Thy each have to have a source. Good is from God and evil is from Satan.
And by the way Satan's name means adversary.
I’ve discovered that it’s important to know who we are in Christ. In Ephesians, Paul writes, “I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened so that you may know…what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe,” toward us who take Him at His Word. (Ephesians 1:18,19) God lives in us and empowers us.
So when we find ourselves having negative thoughts about ourselves or about God or about others, what do we do with those? Ephesians 6:16 says, “…taking up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.” It says we will be able to extinguish ALL the flaming arrows of the evil one. These are the thoughts that seem to come out of nowhere—like flaming arrows. What do we do with those? Notice it says “taking up the shield of faith.” That is something we have to do. We cannot afford to be passive in the spiritual battle. James 4:7 says, “Resist the devil and he will flee from you.” We have to actively take God at His Word. If you are attacked by a flaming arrow, it’s aimed at your mind. Thank God for his word. The word helps to renew my mind daily. Thats why i never miss my tine with God.
That's good that you get your daily time with God. I can do a much better job of that.
True, so true. This letter is a straight to the point summary of what the devils aim is.
Another way I feel he deceives and confuses is by masquerading in costumes of light and righteousness. Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is not strange if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness.
In other words, Satan has servants who profess enough truth to join the church, and from inside teach what Paul calls “doctrines of demons'' in 1 Timothy 4 . Jesus says they will be like wolves in sheep’s clothing.
Don't be deceived by signs and wonders. Let your confidence be grounded in something far deeper than any supposed inability of Satan to do signs and wonders. Even real signs and wonders in the service of anti-Christian assertions, prove nothing, even when they are done “in the name of Jesus.”“Lord, Lord, did we not do many mighty works in your name?” To which Jesus will reply, “I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness” -
Matthew 7:22–23.
The problem was not that the signs and wonders weren’t real, but that they were in the service of sin.
Let your foundation of your Christian faith be on the word of God, and not on signs and wonders, so you'll not be deceived.
And that is the danger. That darkness can be mistaken for light.
@humanearl, I know you must have experienced this, but from my experience too, I have found out that the devil has no good intention for me. Satan tempts people to sin against God.
This is what he did unsuccessfully to Jesus in the wilderness — he wanted him to abandon the path of suffering and obedience.
This is what he did successfully to Judas in the last hours of Jesus’s life.
2 Corinthians 11:3 : “I am afraid that as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your thoughts will be led astray from a sincere and pure devotion to Christ.”
Paul warns against this for all the believers, that they should not be ignorant of the devils schemes.
To resist the devil, James says,
“Resist the devil, and he will flee from you!” (James 4:7). How do we do that? Here is how they did it according to Revelation 12:11: “They have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death.” They embraced the triumph of Christ by his blood. They spoke that truth in faith. They did not fear death. And they triumphed.
It gets really difficult to resist due to the fact that Satan knows exactly how to press our buttons. But we must keep fighting for sure.
@humanearl - Sir your feeling, your pain about the world you realized in this wonderful letter to Satan... You are willing to see a beautiful world without hate, fear & tears... I wish in this Christmas you will find what you are seeking in this world... You have a beautiful thoughts Sir... I am glad i decided to be a follower of a wonderful human... You have no fear to challenge Satan to protect the humanity inside of the man kind... Respect that feelings & gut of yours Sir...

Thanks for encouraging me. I have no fear because I have to help so many people try to navigate through life.
@humanearl - Sir, it's hard to find people with your mindset... God bless you Sir...
'I have no fear because I have to help so many people try to navigate through life.'

A very wonderful post. Well detailed. The devil does not only stop at trying to cause confusion, he also tries to cause enmity between us and God. Satan accuses Christians before God. The Bible calls him '' the accuser of the brethren ''.
Satan accuses us before God, as he did Job. But it is a glorious thing that we the followers of Jesus have an advocate who always lives to make intercession for us.
I'll like to finish by saying that there is no neutral zone. You either triumph “by the blood of the Lamb and the word of your testimony,” or you will be enslaved by Satan. The devil does not have any favorites. He hates all human alike. Therefore, let us share in suffering as a good soldier of Christ Jesus and wage the good warfare. Pray without ceasing.
