Satan’s Arrows
Guilt
Fear
Temptation
Busyness and Distractions
Accusation
This might all sound superstitious or like some fantasy world.
We think of Satan as a demonic, red guys with horns and a pitchfork
And when we are looking for the wrong enemy, we are much more likely to lose the battle.
Be on guard and be equipped to overcome the schemes and arrows of the evil one.
Names are Important
Jeremy means “exalted of the Lord” (from Jeremiah)
Jabez – borne in pain
Gideon – having a stump for a hand
Leah — weary
Apollos— Destroyer
Names are important in the bible, they are not just a way of referencing someone, but the person’s identity is wrapped up in a name.

Deceiver of the World
From the beginning, Satan has been a liar.
gen 3 1-
1
Satan twists the words of God.
Satan twists the words of God.
Satan twists the words of God.
God didn’t say to not eat of ANY tree in the garden, just the one.
Eve corrects the deceit of Satan with the actual words of God.
4
Satan then questions the character and goodness of God
“Surely God is lying to you because He doesn’t want you to be like Him.”
6
The lies of Satan are hard to thwart.
Eve starts to believe him, starts to question God and not listen to His words.
She believes Satan is speaking truth and that his words will bring her satisfaction and pleasure.
gen 3
Shame is their new name.
The realization that they are naked points to their brokenness because of sin.
And notice that Satan is no longer there, which is how the cycle of sin continues even today.
We are tempted
Believe lies (either by Satan or the world)
Doubt God
Choose to turn from Him
And broken becomes our identity
That is who we are apart from Christ
That is who we are IN CHRIST
Accuser
rev 12
What ever words you choose com
Jabez – borne in pain
Gideon – having a stump for a hand
Leah — weary
Apollos— Destroyer
The second name Satan is called
As Satan used lies and temptation to lure us into sin, he uses accusation to keep us burned in shame.
Ultimately Satan desires that our sin, our mess ups, our struggles, our trials, our temptations, and even our upbringing, become the things that define us.
Ugly becomes our name
Failure becomes our name
Loser becomes our name
Unworthy becomes our name
Rejected becomes our name
The passage says he “accuses us day and night...”
When you are told a lie over and over again it is easy to begin to believe it isn’t it?
That is the beauty of the Gospel.

Listen to God’s Voice
john 10
Listen to God’s voice above any other voice that tries to define your identity.
His voice is all that matters.
