What is Satan Trying to Steal From You? (Various Scriptures)

Satan job is to steal your identity by making sure you never find out who are.

When the devil finds out that you know who you are--the devil will leave you along. Matthew(4:4) (But Jesus answered, "The scripture says, 'Man cannot live on bread alone, but needs every word that God speaks."

When you know who are, you don't have to prove it.

The devil knows who you are.
God knows who you are.
But do you know who are?

The Bible is the reflection....it is your mirror....When you read and study the Bible, you can see where you are and God's plan for your life. Proverbs can help you with the wisdom and understanding needed to get there. According to Proverbs 3:5-7 says Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Never rely on what you think you know.  Remember the Lord in everything you do, and he will show you the right way. Never let yourself think that you are wiser than you are; simply obey the Lord and refuse to do wrong.  And Proverbs 2:9-12 says If you listen to me, you will know what is right, just, and fair.  You will know shat you should do. You will becomewis, and your knowledge will give you pleasure.  Your insight and understanding will protect you and prevent you from doing the wrong thing.

In Genesis 1:26-27, the Word of God says "And now we will make human beings: they will be like us and resemble us. They will have power over the fish, the birds and all animals, domestic and wild, large and small. So God created human beings, making them to be like Himself. He created them male and female.)

You can destroy the body but you can't destroy the spirit.

I am a speaking spirit like God.
Genesis 1:26-27 And now we will make human beings; they will be like us and resemble us. They will have power over the fish, the birds and all animals, domestic and wild, large and small. So God created human beings, making them to be like Himself. He created them male and female.

1John 4:17 wrote Love is made perfect in us in order that we may have courage on the Judgement Day; and we will have it because our life in this world is the same as Christ's.

In Psalms 82:6  'You are gods,' I said: 'all of you are sons of the Most High.'

Love (I Corinthians 13:1-13) Good News Translation

1     I may be able to speak the language of men and even of angels,
       but if I have no love, my speech is no more than a noisy gong
       or a clanging bell.

2      I may have the gift of inspired preaching; I may have all 
        knowledge and understand all secrets; I may have all the faith
        needed to move mountains----but if I have no love, I am nothing.

3      I may give away everything I have, and even give up my body to be
        burned ---but if I have no love, this does me no good.

4      Love is patient and kind; it is not jealous or conceited or proud;

5      love is not ill-mannered or selfish or irritable; love does not keep
        a record of wrongs; 

6      love is not happy with evil, but is happy with the truth.

7      Love never give up; and its faith, hope, and patience never fail.

8      Love is eternal. There are inspired messages, but they are temporary;
        there are gifts of speaking in strange tongues, but they will cease; there
        is knowledge, but it will pass.

9      For our gifts of knowledge and of inspired messages are only partial;

10    but when what is perfect comes, then what is partial will disappear.

11    When I was a child, my speech, feelings, and thinking were all those of
         a child; now that I am a man, I have no more use for childish ways.

12     What we see now is like a dim image in a mirror; then we shall see face-to-
         face. What I know now is only partial; then it will be complete--as complete
         as God's knowledge of me.

13     Meanwhile these three remains; faith, hope, and love; and the greatest of 
         these is LOVE.
        

The Fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-26) Good News Translation

22  But the Spirit produces love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

23  humility, and self-control.  There is no law against such things as these.

24  And those who belong to Christ Jesus have put to death their human nature with
      all its passions and desires.

25  The Spirit has given us life; he must also control our lives.

26   We must not be proud or irritate one another or be jealous of one another.

Truth, Wisdom, Learning, and Good Sense is Worth Paying for but Too Valuable to Sell (Proverbs 23:23)

More Wise Sayings (Proverb 24: 1-7) Good News Translation

1   Don't be envious of evil people, and don't try to make friends with them.

2   Causing trouble is all they ever think about; every time they open their
     mouth somone is going to be hurt.

3  Homes ae built on the foundation of wisdom and understanding.

4   Where there is knowledge, the rooms are furnished with valuable, beautiful things.

5    Being wise is better than being strong; yes knowledge is more important than strength.

6    After all, you must make careful plans before you fight a battle, and the more good
      advice you get, the more likely you are to win.

7   Wise sayingsae too deep for a stupid person to understand. He has nothing to say when
      important matters are being discussed.

8    If you ae always planning evil, you will earn a reputation as a troublemaker,

9    Any scheme a fool thinks up is sinful. People hate a person who has nothing but
      scorn for others.

10  If you are weak in crisis, you ae week indeed.

The Lord Guides a Man (Psalm 37:18-24) Good News

18 The Lord takes care of those who obey him, and the land will be theirs forever. 19 They will not suffer when times are bad; they will have enough in time of famine. 20 But the wicked will die; the enemies of the Lord will vanish like wild flowers; they will disappear like smoke. 21 The wicked man borrows and never pays back, but the good man is generous with his gifts. 22 Those who are blessed by the Lord will possess the land, but those who are cursed by him will be driven out. 23 The Lord guides a man in the way he should go and protects those who please him. 24 If they fall, they will not stay down, because the Lord will help them up.

Longing For God (Psalms 63: 1-11) Good News Translation

1     O God, you are my God and I long for you.  My whole being desire you;
        like a dry, worn-out, and waterless land, my soul is thirsty for you.

2      Let me see you in the sanctuary, let me see how mighty and glorious you are.

3      Your constant love is better than life itself, and so I will praise you.

4      I will give you thanks as long as I live; I will raise my hands to you in prayer.

5      My soul will feast and be satisfied, and I will sing glad songs of praise to you.

6      As I lie in bed, I remember you; all night long I think of you,

7      because you have always been my help. In the shadow of your wings I sing for joy.

8      I cling to you, and your hand keeps me safe.

9      Those who are trying to kill me will go down into the world of the dead.

10     They will be killed in battle, and their bodies eaten by wolves.

11     Because God gives him victory, the king will rejoice. Those who make promises
         in God's name will praise him, but the mouth of liars will be shut.

Don't Worry but Trust, Commit and Have Patience (Psalms 37:1-9) Good News Translation

1   Don't be worried on account of the wicked; don't be jealous of those
     who do wrong.

2   They will soon disappear like grass that dries up; they will die like
      plants that wither.

3    Trust in the Lord and do good; live in the land and be safe.

4     Seek your happiness in the Lord, and he will give you your
       heart's desire.

5     Give yourself to the Lord; trust in him, and he will help you;

6      he will make your righteousness shine like the noonday sun.

7      Be patient and wait for the Lord to act; don't be worried about
        those who prosper or those who succeed in their evil plans.

8     Don't give in to worry or anger; it only leads to trouble.

9     Those who trust in the Lord will possess the land,
        but the wicked will be driven out.
