The Deceiver of the Nations




Satan, the Devil:

"Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol, To the lowest depths of the Pit. Those who see you will gaze at you, And consider you, saying: 'Is this the man who made the earth tremble, Who shook kingdoms?'" -Isaiah 14:15-16, NKJV

"You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it." -John 8:44, NKJV

"So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him." -Revelation 12:9, NKJV

Satan is the deceiver; the great deceiver; the greatest deceiver. He is the father of lies. He has deceived the nations, and they are deceived indeed! He has made the people of the earth tremble, and he has shaken the kingdoms. But one day, people will see him and ask in shock, “Is this the one? Is this he who deceived the world and caused so much trouble? Look at him now, for he is brought low."

Glory and honor to Jesus the King who has defeated the enemy, Satan, and who will one day humble him in the sight of the nations and restrain him from causing trouble.
