Just as God is aware of us, so is Satan, and every minute of the day, we choose who we will serve with our every word, thought, and deed. And though we do not remember - yet are learning to remember - who we were before we came into mortality, Satan DOES remember us. He remembers our strengths. He remembers the valiant ones who stood with the Lord in the war in heaven, and he studies each and every one of our human weaknesses and shortcomings like a hawk. He glories in every choice we make that turns us away from Christ, and he has made it his eternal goal to wreak havoc in our lives, both spiritually and emotionally.
But just as surely as we are taught that Satan will never win, each of us needs to KNOW that within us is a power far greater than the adversary. The Savior is the source of that power. We only need to let His light shine in those dark places of our heart and cast any and everything that is not of God away from us.
Only then can we grow in our daily battle with the adversary and gain the victory.
We are already on our way!
Happy Sabbath!
