SPIRIT OF THE ACCUSER

1. ACCUSER, literally means ADVERSARY or ENEMY and in this case, Satan, the DEVIL, “Be sober, be vigilant; because YOUR ADVERSARY THE DEVIL, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour” [1 Peter 5:8-9] Satan is man’s ENEMY not God’s ADVERSARY. How shall CLAY contend against the POTTER, Romans 9:21. Satan was CREATED by God, a CHERUB [Ezekiel 28:14-15] He fights you because all he lost through rebellion and more, God has prepared for His “CHILDREN”, “And if children, then heirs; HEIRS OF GOD, and JOINT-HEIRS WITH CHRIST; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together” [Romans 8:17] Satan, knowing  he cannot derail DIVINE AGENDA, turned ACCUSER, “And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the ACCUSER OF OUR BRETHREN IS CAST DOWN, which ACCUSED THEM BEFORE OUR GOD day and night” [Revelation 12:10]

2. The ACCUSER, for a long time brought “CHARGES” against us in heaven. JOB was a classic example, “Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also … Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, DOTH JOB FEAR GOD FOR NOUGHT? … But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face” [Job 1:6,9,11] JOB literally went through “HELL” to “PROVE” himself and overturn the “CHARGES” against him. All glory to JESUS CHRIST, we no longer have to go through “HELL”, the ACCUSER is fallen from heaven and lost the capacity to ACCUSE us before God, “And he said unto them, I beheld SATAN AS LIGHTNING FALL FROM HEAVEN” [Luke 10:18] Instead of a PROSECUTOR dishing ACCUSATIONS against us, we have JESUS CHRIST as our ADVOCATE and INTERCESSOR, “By so much was JESUS MADE A SURETY OF A BETTER TESTAMENT. … Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing HE EVER LIVETH TO MAKE INTERCESSION FOR THEM” [Hebrews 7:22,25]

3. Satan is here and remodelled his “WARFARE” into THOUGHTS to weaken the CHURCH with DIVISION, “And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and EVERY CITY OR HOUSE DIVIDED AGAINST ITSELF SHALL NOT STAND” [Matthew 12:25] SPIRIT OF THE ACCUSER is the reason we are quick to see ERRORS in others and without hearing them bring damaging ACCUSATIONS, not considering our own FRAILTIES, “Thou hypocrite, first cast out the BEAM OUT OF THINE OWN EYE; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the MOTE OUT OF THY BROTHER’S EYE” [Matthew 7:5] More hurtful are deep-seated THOUGHTS that war within us, daily questioning our FAITH and FINISHED WORK of the Cross, To add salt to injury, we are pressed on every side by a pervasive SOCIAL MEDIA culture that breeds ANXIETY and FEAR but, “… GOD HATH NOT GIVEN US THE SPIRIT OF FEAR; but of POWER, and of LOVE, and of a SOUND MIND” [2 Timothy 1:7] Truth be told, our sanctimonious “ACCUSATIONS” do not glorify God, “Wherefore RECEIVE YE ONE ANOTHER, AS CHRIST ALSO RECEIVED US to the glory of God” [Romans 15:7]

4. SPIRIT OF THE ACCUSER is ever more aggressive, “… the DEVIL IS COME DOWN unto you, having GREAT WRATH, because he knoweth that HE HATH BUT A SHORT TIME” [Revelation 12:12] He is greatly DISTRESSED because of the “SHORT WORK” the LORD shall make of his “SHORT TIME”, “For he will FINISH THE WORK and cut it short in righteousness: because a SHORT WORK WILL THE LORD MAKE UPON THE EARTH” [Romans 9:28] The “SHORT WORK” is GREAT REVIVAL, the superlative “STIRRING” of the CHURCH by the HOLY GHOST in readiness to be CAUGHT UP with the BRIDEGROOM, “And AT MIDNIGHT THERE WAS A CRY MADE, Behold, the BRIDEGROOM COMETH; GO YE OUT TO MEET HIM. Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps” [Matthew 25:6-7] More than at any other time, SPIRIT OF THE ACCUSER is at war in the CHURCH, sowing DISCORD, to prevent the inevitable. It is time to WATCH and PRAY, defuse the SPIRIT OF THE ACCUSER and PRAY DOWN  the GREAT REVIVAL, “WATCH YE and Pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak” [Mark 14:38]
