He enjoyed camping, fi sh- ing, hiking and swimming. He had been a member of the Boy Scouts. Survivors include his mother, Billie Rhodes of Cottage Grove, a sister, Belinda Watson and her D o you know that you have an enemy? It’s true. In fact, we all have an enemy—the devil—and it’s very important for us to understand who he is, or we will be defeated in life. I went to church for years and didn’t know the devil was real; I thought he was just a cartoon character in a red outfi t with a pitchfork. I never heard a mes- sage about the devil and how we can have authority over him. I did get a good foundation of what salvation is, and I’m very thankful for that. But I wasn’t living a victorious life in Christ because I didn’t understand who the enemy is, that he is the au- thor of my problems, and that I need to aggressively resist him. If you’re thinking, “Joyce, I don’t want to talk about the devil,” I understand. But the devil has strategies and plans to come against you, so the worst thing you can do is ignore him. That’s why I want to help you get informed about who he is so you can know how to recognize when he’s at work in your life and how to defeat him. Because the good news is, through Christ, you can be more than a conqueror and overcome the attacks of the enemy (Ro- mans 8:37). We’re in a spiritual war In 2 Corinthians 10:4 (AMPC), the Bible says, “For the weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of fl esh and blood], but they are mighty before God for the overthrow and destruction of strongholds.” This verse makes it clear that our battle is not against fl esh and blood. In other words, people are not the source of our problems. People can create problems, but we need to realize that the en- emy works through people, and if we just deal with them, we’re not getting to the root cause of the issues in our lives. Now, there are several reasons why we have trouble: We live in a fallen world and experience the effects of sin; we disobey God and make poor choices; and we are directly attacked by the devil. I want to focus on the ways and reasons why the enemy brings trouble into our lives. It’s his nature The Bible teaches that Satan (another name for the devil), was formerly called Lucifer. He was created by God as an an- gel with a free will. He was an archangel and had great power and responsibility. Some bibli- cal scholars believe he was the angel in charge of worship. Ezekiel 28:13-15 says he was covered with precious stones, he was the anointed cherub and he was blameless in his ways from the day he was created until he turned against God (AMPC). Isaiah 14:12-15 explains that he is fallen from heaven because he said in his heart: “I will as- cend to heaven; I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will sit upon the mount of as- sembly in the uttermost north. I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High” (AMPC). He used his free will to try and be like God, yet he was brought down by Him. When Satan fell from heaven, he took a third of the angels with him; therefore, the devil and his demonic hosts are alive in the earth today. They are the evil in this world, and we can’t be lazy Christians and expect to overcome them. Keys to defeating your en- emy The devil has power, but Jesus came to put him in his place and deliver us from the power of the FREE TEST DRIVE Jenna Buetow victoriously over sin and the enemy. For example, Romans 12:21 says we overcome evil with good; 1 John 4:4 reminds us that Christ, who lives in us, is greater than the enemy in the world; and Colossians 1:13-14 (NKJV) says God “has deliv- ered us from the power of dark- ness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgive- ness of sins.” Here’s some more truth for you: God loves you and He has plans for your life that are good…that will prosper you and give you hope. Make a determined decision to aggres- sively pursue your relationship with God in prayer and through studying His Word. By God’s grace, you can defeat the attacks of the enemy and have the vic- torious, more-than-a-conqueror life Jesus died to give you! z Donald Richard Lounsbury 1935- 2015 D o n passed as he prepared for church on Sunday, November 29, 2015.

First John 3:8 (NKJV) says, “…For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.” When we accept Christ as our Savior and come into a personal relationship with Him, we gain access to the au- thority and power of God in our lives. John 10:10 says that the en- emy comes to steal, kill and de- stroy, but Jesus came to give us life—abundant life! And John 8:32 says God’s truth sets us free. See, when we know the Word and who we are in Christ, then we can recognize the lies of the enemy and how he is trying to work in our lives. We can stand our ground by faith in God, submit ourselves to Him completely and resist the devil, and the enemy must fl ee! (See James 4:7; 1 Peter 5:9.)
