And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. {Revelation 20:10}
Satan has no power at all except what God has given him. He might think he has power now, but he knows clear enough that it is short lived. That’s why he’s in such a rush to bring as many people with him where he is going. But when God is finished with him, he will be punished forever and ever with the rest of all the false prophets that deceived the souls here on this earth. In truth no one has any power at all except Jesus Christ.
A lot of people are being deceived today, even people that love God and believe in Jesus Christ are being deceived to try other “powers” in this life. Don’t fall for it. Remember there is no other power except Christ’s. If it’s not Jesus, it can only be Satan’s – the prince of the darkness of this world. We cannot take chances. The world would have us to believe that we are gods and are bosses of our souls. Be very careful. All glory and honor belongs only to the Lord. If things like, “self-glorification” is becoming a part of our conversation, it’s time to check who is the boss in our lives. Is it Jesus or is it Satan? The self in us will definitely want to be the boss, but this kind of pursuit is akin to the pride that brought Lucifer (who is Satan) down from heaven. We don’t want that at all. Believing in ourselves, boosting ourselves up, “loving” ourselves, “self-love” all these thoughts of self glorification are not of God. Think about it, what can we do? What power do we have that did not come from God at all? The Bible tells us,
For in Him we live, and move, and have our being. {Acts 17:28}
