CHAPTER 3; THE CHALLENGING COUNTERFEIT

Satan constantly is challenging God’s power in the universe. He is the challenging counterfeit
because he actually poses no threat to God. Satan was originally created by God as a beautiful
angel named Lucifer. Read about his original state and position in Ezekiel 28:12-17. But Satan
rebelled against the power and authority of God. He wanted to be as God Himself. You can read
the story of his rebellion in Ezekiel 28:17 and Isaiah 14:12-15. God could have struck Satan
down and killed him for such rebellion. But if He had brought down the first enemy in this way,
there would have been the possibility of another rebellion and the history of Heaven would have been clouded with similar disasters. THE is where do you draw your strenght from ? you can completely draw strength from God or the devil, and drawing strength from the devil comes from the point where you are not completely dependent on GOD , you will bear with me that in this world it is either you are for GOD or against HIM and many of us in our ignorance have gone against GOD BY depending on our our ability . the capacity to depend on your ability is power by the devil. That inability to study,pray, evangelice is powered by laziness and the enemy therefore we most watch and fully depend on GOD’s so as not to counterfeit or challenge GODS power
