Satan's strategy are schemes, tactics, or assaults upon a person for harm.
1. He uses deceit and craft to make us believe something that is untrue to be true.
2. Satan blinds the minds of the unbeliever.
3. He redirects our attention from God to a specific need or desire.
4. He gets you to focus on what you don't have, and forget what you do have.
5. Satan narrows or pinpoints your thinking forgeting about future consequences and focus on immediate desires.
6. He chooses our weakest moments such as when you are Hungry, Angry, Lonely, and Tired.
(H + A + L + T = HALT)
Do you know your weakest moments?
Ask what were the conditions of your failures in the past?
7. Satan works to get you to doubt God's word.
8. He will get you to ask is this really what scripture means?
9. He will get you to misinterpret and rationalize.
10. Satan works to get you in debt.
11. He tries to engage you in conversation.
How to survive a Satanic attack.
1. His attacks are well calculated. To go to battle, you've got to be able to identify the enemy.
2. Stand firm.
3. Don't debate with Satan.
4. Get ready before the battle occurs. Satan opens doors of opportunity for tempting. He waits for the critical moments of our lives.
5. I must pre-decide what God wants me to do.
6. We must wear the Breastplate of righteousness which means to protect our hearts.
7. We have to be careful about what we allow in our heart.
