THE MANY VOICES OF THE DEVIL?


THE MANY VOICES OF THE DEVIL?

So WHAT DOES THE DEVIL SOUND LIKE, you ask?
He sounds like your best friend. Sometimes he sounds like one who wants to make you happy. Sometimes he says he does not want you to suffer, like the day he sounded like My  good friend and disciple Peter. One day, right out of nowhere, Peter began to rebuke Me, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: you will not suffer and die on a cross. [23] But I said to Peter, Get thee behind me, satan: thou art an offence unto me: you are not speaking of the things that be of God, but those that be of carnal men." Matthew 16:22-23 KJV 

Never be fooled by mans portrayal of what satan sounds like. He seldom if ever presents himself as a scary demon, with a deep hollow voice. Satan masquerades as an angel of light;" 2 Corinthians 11:14 AMP. He sounds like an excellent time keeper, reminding you of all the things you must do. He reminds you of every thing that must be done, even the tiny things. The dishes in the sink, the laundry in the basket, the oil that needs to be changed, even when you need to shave and shower. He always waits to remind you just before the time you have scheduled to meet with Me.

He sounds like a record keeper, keeping track of all your failures and sins of the past. He will never warn you of future sins, but he will surely detail every past sin. He is a nagger, constantly bringing up the things you should have done, but didn't. Some times he sounds like woman begging you to take her to bed. He sounds like a cheating wife that says, day after day, "have sex with me" Genesis 39:10  
He sounds like an expert on right and wrong, but he always reverses them. "He calls evil good, and good evil; mixes up darkness for light, and light for darkness; he says, bitter is sweet, and sweet is bitter!" Isaiah 5:20 

He sounds like a college professor, using big words to explain the facts that he says, prove I don't exist. He has all the answers, that each gender more and bigger questions. He sounds like the perverted activist, who fights for same sex marriage. He sounds like the preacher who says I no longer punish sin, because I am a good God. He fails to tell you, "It's because I am a good God that I punish sin." He neglects to tell you that, if you live after the flesh, you shall die: but if you through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, you shall live." Romans 8:13 KJV

He sounds a very easy going guy, and whispers, "there's nothing wrong with a little white lie, tell her your working overtime;" or "go ahead take it, no one will miss it"; or "go ahead it doesn't hurt to look". He will tell you there are some things people have done to you, that you don't have to forgive, knowing very well that this will land you in hell. He is well aware that "if you do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses." Mark 11:26 KJV 

He's the great compromiser and therefore, constantly rationalizes everything in an attempt to disarm My Holy Spirit's convicting power. Now you know what the devil sounds like, you might think it will be easy to recognize My voice, but it's not quite that simple. You must first "be still, in order to know that I am God: and then I will begin to be exalted by you among the heathen, I will eventually be exalted in the whole earth." Psalm 46:10 KJV You must get alone with Me in order to hear and learn what My still small voice sounds like. That's how "My sheep are able to follow Me: for they know My voice. [5] And the deceiver they will not follow, but will flee from him:" John 10:4-5
