Satan
Most of us would never speak to another person the way we speak to ourselves. The voice in our head feeds us false information, replays failures, and whispers that it’s hopeless. It’s loudest when we let our guard down, when confidence takes over, or when the path ahead feels hard. We usually assume that the inner voice is just “us,” but Scripture suggests that something far more is going on.
The Bible says Satan has been bound, cast down, and defeated—yet it also warns that he prowls like a roaring lion. This post explores how those truths fit together and what they reveal about the devil’s power in our lives today.
Even Christians who believe in God tend to see the Christian life in mostly secular terms. We acknowledge God but don’t think very often about evil spiritual forces. Satan has been caricatured so often that we’re a little embarrassed to even mention him. But that leaves us both vulnerable and confused. The Bible’s teaching about the armour of God helps correct our tendency toward seeing the world through secular lenses.
