Our three enemies are:

Anything that is physical in nature, which will hinder or quench the Spirit of God, is of the world because it is sin. The world is not getting better it is growing worst from the time that man fell it has been decaying more and more. As time goes by greater opportunities for evil alliances increase and our behavior is proceeding worst. Our technology is getting exceedingly evil and more going faster toward wickedness, temptation is everywhere and crime is on an ever-growing rate. Sin is exploding and Satan is taking many to hell with him.

The nature of the human heart has not changed since the creation of human beings. The human heart still has a bent toward darkness, evil, and sin. We have desires, which God intends for us to meet in ways that are in keeping with His commandments. The temptation always exists, however, for us to seek to meet those desires in ways that are ungodly. Since we never lose our human, fleshly desires, we never lose our capacity to yield to temptation. These desires are with us until we die because they reside within us.

• The devil

Peter describes our enemy this way:

“Your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour” (1 Peter 5:8).

Each of us today is confronted with a spiritual battle with the devil whether we realize it or not. The very nature of the enemy of our eternal spirit is to defeat us, destroy us, and to kill everything that is important to us. His pursuit of us is persistent, unrelenting, and always aimed at the most vulnerable area of our lives.

Believers can choose to have nothing to do with Satan. When we understand this truth we will be free to walk and to do the word of God; this is the freedom of the Spirit it is unlimited power. How important is it to hear the Voice of the Lord? How does believer hear the voice of the Spirit of God.

The believer is first impressed through the knowledge of God in his or her spirit and as they continue in the truth and in fellowship with God they grow and become mature attaining to the true faith in the Son of God.

Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God. Ps 92:13

That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, Eph 3:17

The Believer Rooted In Christ For Fruit

The believer is rooted and grounded in the Love of God. A tree, [THE BELIEVER], that is planted in the House of the Lord will not be uprooted; instead they shall grow in the presence of His Majesty. How can we grow except through the grace and knowledge of the Lord.

But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen. 2 Peter 3:18

The Father is very protective over his branches because he does not want any of them to perish, so he tends to it himself. He watches it to make sure that it is bearing fruit. Here in this particular passage of Scripture we see the blessed Trinity at work. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The Father tends to the vine, the Son is the vine and the Holy Spirit is the fruit.

Each of us today is confronted with a spiritual battle with the devil whether we realize it or not. The very nature of the enemy of our eternal spirit is to defeat us, destroy us, and to kill everything that is important to us. His pursuit of us is persistent, unrelenting, and always aimed at the most vulnerable area of our lives.

Believers can choose to have nothing to do with Satan. When we understand this truth we will be free to walk and to do the word of God; this is the freedom of the Spirit it is unlimited power.
