Devil on SermonAudio

Without the facts of biblical history there is no gospel. From a Christian perspective, this becomes most important in approaching the book of Genesis. While the first book of the Bible is full of historical facts, it is also much more than this. It is where the great biblical drama begins—the drama of what God is doing in salvation. In this sermon on Genesis 3:15 titled "True History?" Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones calls the listener to see the big picture of the biblical message. He teaches literal historical facts but he also notes the beginning drama of deliverance as God pronounces a great conflict between the seed of the woman and the seed of the serpent. In order to understand secular history that is marked by sin, evil, war, pride, and hopelessness, people must come to grips with the biblical history of God initiating liberation of humanity from the bondage of Satan. Genesis 3:15 reminds that humanity's problems run much deeper than morality or mere happiness. As Dr. Lloyd-Jones says in this compelling sermon, Genesis 3:15 recalls the utter helpless condition that only the cross of Christ can fix. Listen as he traces biblical history from the beginning to the end where Christ returns in glory and subdues the devil fully and finally.

Read: Isaiah 11:1-9; 1 Cor 15:24-28 Text: Ephesians 6:10-20 The LORD is our strength to stand against the attacks of our enemies! This involves: 1. Knowing the enemy 2. Wearing God's armour 3. Praying in the Spirit

A ten-part sermon series on the Christian's chief enemy, the person and works of the devil.

Demons fear God but many humans do not "There is no fear of God before their eyes." How many evil spirits can be in one person at least a legion. (2 to 3000) Wow, How can that be?

What glorious blessings come to us through the precious blood of Jesus! His blood can be described as Peace Making Blood, (Colossians 1:20); Soul Redeeming Blood, bringing us deliverance through the riches of His grace, (Ephesians 1:7). His blood is Sin Cleansing Blood, (1 John 1:7); Covenant Sealing Blood, (Mark 14:24); Wrath Removing Blood as Jesus was set forth as a propitiation, bearing the wrath for us, (Romans 3:25). Jesus shed blood is also Presently Justifying Blood, as we are given a standing of acceptance in Him, (Romans 5:9); again, Jesus' blood is Pardon Pleading Blood, speaking "better things" than that of Abel's, (Hebrews 12:24). Finally Jesus' blood is Devil Defeating Blood as we can overcome him by "the blood of the Lamb," (Revelation 12:11). When Satan accuses us of sin and failure, our advocate, Jesus Christ, is in the presence of God for us. His propitiation secures our standing for all time, (1 John 2:1-2). As the Israelites in Egypt slew the lamb and trusted in the blood applied to the lintel and side posts of the door for the salvation of the firstborn, so our trust is forever in the precious shed blood of the One who died for us.

This sermon examines Revelation chapter 9 to illustrate the reality of spiritual warfare and God's sovereign control over evil. The preacher identifies the fallen star as Satan, who exercises limited, permitted authority to torment humanity through demonic forces. Despite the devil's active efforts to deceive and destroy, he remains bound by Christ's ultimate power and cannot act outside God's will. The text highlights that unbelievers remain easy prey due to their hardened hearts and refusal to repent even amidst judgment. Believers are urged to maintain spiritual vigilance through prayer and church fellowship to withstand these invisible attacks.

There are only two kingdoms and two princes: the prince of this world, who offers fear, deception, sin, and death, and Jesus Christ, the Prince of Life and Peace, who offers salvation, truth, and eternal life. We see that Jesus faced the greatest conflict with Satan and overcame him completely through obedience to the Father, showing us that if we love Christ, we must keep His commandments and live separated from the course of this world. We are warned that the battle is for our hearts, minds, and souls, and that we must choose which kingdom we will belong to, because no one can follow the world and truly belong to Christ. Our only hope is to know the truth, come to Jesus, and let His Word free us from the blindness and bondage of the devil.

Your adversary, the Devil, has an active plan for your downfall and is actively pursuing you at every turn. Be sober and vigilant. Keep watch over your time and your testimony!
