READ: Hebrews 3:1-6
“Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.” – 1 Corinthians 4:2
One of my pastors shared an important vision with me. In this vision, he was asleep in his bed at home in the middle of the night. An intruder came through the window and walked up to his sleeping figure on the bed. When the intruder got to his body, the intruder opened what looked like a door in his chest, put something inside it and ran out of the window. This intruder was no other person than Satan. God had revealed to this brother that Satan would try to plant something in his heart. God was warning him to be careful about seeds that Satan could sow in his spirit.
This vision clearly illustrated to me that Satan was at work trying to poison the hearts of the people that I was leading.
Because Lucifer is basically a rebel, he inspires all rebellions. Every time you fight disloyalty and rebellion you are fighting Satan directly.
Because Lucifer is the embodiment of all rebellion, teachings on loyalty and disloyalty are direct attacks on his presence in a church or ministry.
Go to the root of the matter and deal with Satan in your church by confronting disloyalty and teaching your people to be loyal.
“Now the most important thing about a servant is that he does just what his master tells him to” (1 Corinthians 4:2, The Living Bible).
