So many times when we have trouble in this life, we are so quick to blame God. We are so quick to be mad at God. Things like the unexpected loss of loved ones, bad relationships, hurt, depression, addictions, loneliness. And the list goes on... We ask God and yell at God, "why me! how could an all good and loving God let this happen to me, my family, or friends? Don't you care God? Don't you love me?" But, we must realize that even in these questions, we are deceived. As people who claim to follow Christ, have we forgotten the reason why humanity fell and why we have death, addictions, and bad relationship in the first place? Is it not the deceiver (SATAN) who tempted humanity, and we let him walk all over us, giving him authority over us? Have we forgotten that evil and bad in this world is caused by him? We are so quick to blame God and get mad at him and walk away, all the while Satan is sitting there innocent because we don't even recognize his wicked works. We have put God in the place where Satan belongs, even when God gave his only Son for us. We shouldn't be mad at God! We should be mad at the devil for he is the one who brings evil! Satan is the one to be blamed and accused, for he has been proven guilty! God is faithful! Make war with the real enemy, the devil.
"Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings" -1 Peter 5:8-9
"He (the devil) was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies." -John 8:44-45
