MIND BLOWING FACTS ABOUT
THE DEVASTATING FALL OF SATAN
The fall of Satan from his heavenly position and
from grace is mirrored in the general character of fallen humanity today. All the accumulated selfishness found in the human heart has its origin in the first dark mind of the one who chose to rebel against the love of God. His choice marked what is called a “turning point” in eternal history. A
turning point is the point at which a very significant change occurs; a
decisive moment. Turning points can occur in human history and in divine
history.
Some examples of turning points in recent human
history during the last 200 years are: the Boston Tea Party (spark of the American
revolution), the Civil War, World War 1 and World War 2, and the terrorist
attacks on September 11, 2001 just to name a few.
It is important to recognize, however, that not
one of these turning points in human history could have occurred without the
turning points that occurred in divine history relative to the shocking fall of
Satan. This is not just some ancient tale of good versus evil. Here are the facts of true history, and the turning points which bring us to our present time today.
TURNING
POINT #1 – INIQUITY AND DESIRE FOR SELF EXALTATION IN LUCIFER LEAD TO HIS FALL
Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and
I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked
up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till
iniquity was found in thee. (Ezekiel 28:14,15)
How
art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the
morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the
nations! For thou hast said in thine
heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of
God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the Most High. (Isaiah
14:12-14)
TURNING
POINT #2 – LUCIFER FALLS AND HAS A FOUR WAY PSYCHOPATHIC BREAK - THE DRAGON, THE SERPENT, THE DEVIL, AND SATAN. HE
AND HIS FALLEN ANGELS BEGIN WAR IN HEAVEN
And there was war in heaven: Michael and his
angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And
prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the
great dragon was cast out, that
old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole
world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
(Revelation 12:7-9)
TURNING
POINT #3 – HUMAN BEINGS CHOOSE TO TRUST LUCIFER INSTEAD OF GOD.
Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast
of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath
God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden ? And the woman said
unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: But of
the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye
shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. And the serpent
said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall
be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. And when the woman saw that the tree was good
for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to
make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto
her husband with her; and he did eat. (Genesis 3:1-6)
You may think that this has nothing to do with you but it does. Every human being has been affected by Lucifer's great fall from heaven. Many human beings today are controlled by iniquity just like he is. Iniquity means a desire to do a something with evil intention. A large segment of the human masses must be in front of a camera or an audience because they crave praise and self exaltation. Millions of very intelligent people, through their influence and example, are leading others to sin and trust Lucifer's philosophies.

Today and every one of your next living breathing moments can be a turning point in your life unless iniquity and a desire for self-exaltation control you. Are you at war with God and in rebellion against Him ? Are you using your influence to lead others to believe God’s word or to doubt its truthfulness and power ?
While there is still time; surrender your thoughts and feelings to Jesus Christ the one who loves you and died in order for you and I to be able to obtain victory over all sin and selfishness in our lives...He loves you.and He wants you...Not just to be forgiven...Not to play church, but to truly become Christ-like before you die so that you can be prepared to enjoy eternity with Him. A Christlike person is the only kind of person that could enjoy heaven and the only kind of person that could be trusted in heaven.
Pray like this - Father in heaven, I am a sinner and I believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay the penalty for my sins. I accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior right now and I ask you to give me a new heart. New motives, new desires and new purposes that will be in harmony with your law of 10 commandments. I thank you and praise you for the forgiveness of my sins and for causing me to be born again right now,
In Jesus, name, amen.
In Jesus, name, amen.
