And no wonder, for satan himself masquerades as an angel of light - 2 Corinthians 11:14
As followers of Jesus, if we are to live under the leadership of the Holy Spirit, we must remove every hindrance to GOD’s leading. For example, we cannot pray “Lead me not into the temptation of lust” and watch sexually provocative movies. We cannot pray “Lead me away from impure thoughts” and read literature that is profane and/or impure.
One cannot submit to the leadership of GOD and retain habits that grieve the Holy Spirit.
GOD is ready to lead when the Christian is ready to follow.

Holy Spirit,
Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour - 1 Peter 5:8
Faith Believers,
satan is like an angel of light. his method is compromise and complacency. I find it more difficult to deal with an angel of light than to deal with a roaring lion. At least you know who the enemy is when it comes as a roaring lion. However, one must really have the leadership of the Holy Spirit when dealing with an angel of light.
Some people will come into your life portraying themselves as Christians, but if you have GOD's Spirit, the Father will send the Holy Spirit to show you that this person is of satan. You will discern this in your spirit.
I have met many people who claim to be of Christ, however my spirit will sense that this person is one of satans children. I don't let this person know I know who they are, but I pray silently when I am in their presence - rebuking this spirit from satan. A person that truly has the Holy Spirit dwelling inside of them will detect the presence of the enemy immediately.
It is a dangerous thing to mock the Lord.
It is a dangerous thing to stand in church, and
in front of the Lord, proclaiming to be of GOD;
when you know your heart is dark and full of evil
as you speak evil about and to others.
Lord help us because we all have fallen short of the glory of GOD!!! We know that Your Word says you will destroy the enemy and You Will expose his work, every time.

Lastly, prayer is not a plea for the absence of trials, but it is supplication for GOD’s leadership, in the midst of trials.

Holy Spirit,
I submit to Your leadership!
Help me to quickly recognize the work of satan.
Help me to see the double-mindedness in my actions, especially when my actions contradict what I say I believe.
Lead me far away from anything that grieves You, Lord.
Cleanse me and purify me.
Prepare me for battle, as I cry out to You for deliverance from the temptations that the enemy sets up against me.
Lead me into the way of holiness, for I am ready to follow You with my whole heart.
Amen
