Rhapsody Of Realities January 10th 2025, SATAN DOESN'T KNOW EVERYTHING

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD

But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory (1 Corinthians 2:7-8)

There’re those who think the devil has the ability to read human minds and know exactly what is going on in their thoughts. But that’s untrue! The devil cannot read the human mind any more than an intelligent person can guess what’s in your mind simply by observing your mannerisms, body movements and body language. Satan is a created being and as such, he doesn’t have the power or omniscience of God. Satan doesn’t know everything. This limitation is evident in various instances throughout the Bible. For example, after Jesus was born, Herod, disturbed by the news of a new “King of the Jews” born in Bethlehem, secretly inquired from the Magi about the exact location of the child.

After being warned in a dream not to return to Herod, the Magi went back to their country via another route. Herod, feeling deceived, ordered the massacre of all male children from ages two and below in Bethlehem and its vicinity, hoping to kill the prophesied new king. That’s to show you that Satan’s knowledge is limited. Even today, he’s not privy to all that we know or all that God knows. His actions are based on his limited understanding rather than any ability to foresee the entirety of God’s plan.

But thanks be unto God; the Bible says God has revealed these things to us by His Spirit: _*”…for the Spirit searches all things, yea, the deep things of God”*_ (1 Corinthians 2:10). Satan doesn’t have access to these deep things; he isn’t privy to the intricate details of God’s plans for your life, unless they’re revealed by your own actions or speech. And guess what? He can’t stop the plans and blessings of God from coming to pass in your life, except with your cooperation of course.

That’s why it’s important to speak in tongues; as we do, we speak deep mysteries concerning God’s plans, including those related to our lives. The Bible says in 1 Corinthians 14:2 that no man understands what we’re saying when we speak in tongues; not even the devil. But God reveals these mysteries to us through the Holy Spirit. Moment of Worship:

*PRAYER*

*Dear Father, I thank you for your omniscience and for the victory I have in Jesus Christ. l am grateful that you’re all-knowing and that nothing escapes your understanding. I walk in your guidance and wisdom and rely on your perfect plan for my life, confident that you’re aware of all things and have given me dominion over Satan and the powers of darkness, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.*

*FURTHER STUDY*

*||* *1 Corinthians 2:7-10 NKJV* But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden [wisdom] which God ordained before the ages for our glory, 8 which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 9 But as it is written: [” Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,] [Nor have entered into the heart of man] [The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”] 10 But God has revealed [them] to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. *||*

*||* *1 Corinthians 2:12* Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. *||*

It empowers me to overcome all obstacles and overlook all lying vanities the adversary tries to put in my path. My health blossoms because the Lord is the strength of my life and His Word is health to my flesh. I operate from the realm of infinite possibilities and unending victories. My words are loaded with power because I’m filled with the Holy Spirit! The rhema of God that changes things is in my mouth today. I pronounce health, increase, progress, and prosperity in my life in Jesus’ name. Amen. Speak in tongues.
