THE
DEVIL JEALOUSY IT WAS TO BE
It was then when he realized it was the devil’s jealousy of the
God’s
love for him that had put forward the same challenge the devil had put
forth once before in the “Book of Job” where the devil was proven wrong.
As
God
knows all, there is to be known before, now, and forever after. But this
was for Rock to be tested and needed to know his strong belief and
devotion to
God
he loved and obeyed so much!
"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the
rulers, against the authorities,
against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces
of evil in the heavenly realms.
Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to
resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. Stand
firm, therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on
the breastplate of righteousness.”
- Ephesians
6:12:13:14
This was to benefit mankind for
God
to take the devil’s challenge, but under one condition that the devil to
vanish and reside in the worse place of all, the righteous men ordure
where it’s belongs forever as it had been placed in the Book of the
Prelude.
After all, Satan isn’t a man or a woman, he or she. The devil is the
beast of burden and an “it,” a fallen angel whose sole purpose on the
earth is to tempt
God’s
children with false promises and to bring them down to its despised
level and test their beliefs in
God
and themselves. It’s there to challenge mankind in every step. But those
who withstand its temptations and false promises and do not succumb to
its way of life are the righteous men who are stout and steadfast to
their beliefs, to themselves, to their family and are close and dear to
Him.
But Satan is ever ready to strike them at their weakest times. It
seduces, cheats, makes false promises, assures, and outright lies to get
them to do what’s wrong and evil as it gets pleasure from corrupting the
righteous souls. But that is its job now as a fallen angel to test every
man every second and every moment of their lives.
Satan had put forth the challenge that Rock will lose faith in
God
and would curse Him the moment he was to be stripped from His blessings
and his beloved wife that he cherished so much. But the devil needed
permission from
God
as this was not just another man he can corrupt. This was to challenge
God’s
decision on His chosen Levi.
