good dayy everyone

You might be wondering what the article entails just because of the title... i'm writting on

why devil has been fighting some people with some certain temptations and i would try and explain and hopefully you all understand.

In the bible, "the devil has came like an angel of light [2 corithians 11:14]", "the devil has came like a serpent in genesis chapter 3", "like a roaring lion which walketh about seeking whom he may devour [1peter 5;8]"...... he is the same devil but has different personas because he comes at you with things that he knows you struggle with.

he attacks you with desires that were already deep inside you and usually those evil fleshly desires got passed down from a blood relative, basically someone that is related to you.... let's say your mom or dad struggles with lying or alcohol and drugs or fornication, then you are likely to be tempted with the same struggles that they went through

David said in "psalm 51:5 behold, i was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me"..... so we were already born in sin, so the evil desires of the flesh can be carried through the blood. that's why in leviticus 17:11 it was stated that, for the life of the flesh is in the blood.

so you know when you go to the doctor for some check up and they asked did anybody in the family or the history of the family struggle with what you're dealing with right now.... this is done because they are trying to find the root of the problem through your bloodline. we all think this apply just to the physial alone.

some of the things we are going through including temptation, struggles, sins can be a passed down problem and the truth remains that our blood says alot about us. our bloodline are powerful.

that's why Jesus couldn't be born of a man, he had to be born of a virgin mary. so his blood had to be innocent, pure and perfect..... we remember in the bible when the devil tempted jesus in the wilderness, he could not find any lustful desires in jesus because his blood was pure and all the devil could find in jesus was the word of God.

in john 1:14 and the word was made flesh and dwelt among us, [and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the father,] full of grace and truth................. so literally jesus is the word and his blood filled with word of God. so when devil came to tempt him, he couldn't find any evil desires but only the desires of the word.

"james 1:14 says, but every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust and enticed"...... but jesus desires was the word , so the devil came to the wilderness to tempt jesus of himself, that is why he came to jesus with scriptures because the only way of having a chance of fighting the word is with the word.

but it didn't work out the way the devil planned because you can not use word to win word himself.

all these i explained is jus to show you how the devil attacks us through our desires that is in our blood . so basically, we are getting tempted with ourselves. that is why jesus said in luke 9:23 if any man will come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.

you might be wondering where am i going with all these?, see when jesus died on the cross for our sins, he connected us to his blood and through that we can now be a part of body of christ and in that process you are not that same old person you used to be.

so do not allow the devil to tempt you with the same old temptations because you are new person in christ, the old blood is gone and you are a whole new creature and this is only possible if you accept jesus christ in your life and follow him.

thanks for reading

I love this line. Thing is naturally, we are born to inherit certain battles from our lineage but when one becomes born again, all this have no power over such person. This doesn't mean they will stop fighting us, No! We are only been removed from them but we need to war against them so we can attain and remain in that position of freedom
