SUNDAY, DECEMBER 19
Scripture: Isaiah 14:12

The real question of verse 12 that we have to ask is, “How you are fallen from heaven O Lucifer son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, You who weakened the nations!” Is it not amazing that satan actually weakened the nations! He brought them under by offering a cheap path to ascension-a no cost growth pattern! It worked to build a tower and gather people. Never underestimate the ability of the enemy to gain ground in the lives of people through no cost ascension. It works well but for a ‘moment’ for those whose quest is to gain temporal, earthly advantage while completely discounting eternity and eternal principles. We must resist the temptation to be self-absorbed.
