SATANIC WILDCARDS
David Abankwah
The thief cometh not, but for to STEAL, and to KILL, and to DESTROY: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
-John 10:10 | KJV
Satan has three modes or fronts of attack. The first line of attack is centred on stealing. The second line of attack is centred on killing and the third line of attack is centred on destruction. Satan’s initiative of causing man – the image and likeness of God to fall like he fell in heaven cannot be done single-handedly. In this case, he has employed many fallen angels to champion the cause of men’s mass destruction. Notable among these fallen angels are called DEATH and HELL. Together with SATAN, they form a Trident, like there is Trinity in heaven, there is also a Trident in the kingdom of Satan.
Whiles, the main goal of the Trinity is to save (John 10:10), the main goal of the Trident is to destroy (John 10:10). One of the reasons why Satan came into the Garden of Eden was to find the other two parties of the Trident because they are missing after the war in heaven. After gallivanting over all the face of the earth, he did not come across them not knowing God had bound death and hell into the forbidden tree which Lucifer turned Satan did not know. Satan knew that if he had to ask God about it, it would be a disaster so he thought it wise to tackle His images, peradventure he could know where they were.
In this case, Satan monitored proceedings from afar and noticed a weaker link he needed to pounce through who was Eve. He then concealed himself through a serpent – a typical masterclass of a theft operation, and came in a cunning manner. The power of Satan in the Trident is that, he is powerful in formulating lies and blending them with truth, in order to catch the minds of his victims. Immediately Eve told him that the day they would eat from the forbidden tree, they will die was when Satan knew that Death and Hell were in that tree. He hasted up his process because God’s time of visitation was due.
When Eve ate the fruit, nothing happened because it was Adam whose hand was used as the only key to unlock death from the tree and not Eve. When Adam ate the fruit, Death was released and Hell followed him closely (Revelation 6:8). Finally, the wildcards of the devil were back in action and from that time till now, they have been in operation and are still working tirelessly. Satan comes to steal your mind and attention through temptations and when he has gotten you, leaves you into the hands of Death to kill you. When Death is done, he also leaves your soul to rest into the hands of Hell to keep you for the final condemnation which is the second Death (Revelation 21:8).
