Satan can’t do anything without The Most High God’s permission. Satan is still his servant. He serves a purpose that our Creator designed. Yes,Sir!!! 🙌🏽🙏🏾🤗
How do you have faith in God when Satan as you say can't do anything without God's permission because this is true in my life God Gave Satan permission to manipulate my father to rape me and now I have to love and forgive my father it drives me insane and I'm going to burn forever in a fire if I don't love and forgive my father and it would seem if it's all true god gave Satan permission to have me be unable to forgive my father do you know how rational and stupid that sounds but if it's true how can you day in day out be thankful to God since that's also a requirement to appraise the enabler of pain and suffering and be thankful for it
I lost my mom and dad a year apart when I was 17-18 I was completely lost and alone. I lost my faith at that time I was so angry and mad, my life gone to crap for years and years. When I had my son at 19 ill never forget holding him and feeling life get blown back into my soul. Once I reconnected with God and forgave myself/parents. My life has been Fuller ever since I don't care what anyone says I'm complete. And no I don't go to church I worship and gives thanks throughout my day.
Hey brother, if you’re still not plugged into a good Bible believing church with other genuine born again believers, I would really recommend you pray about finding one and asking God to lead you there. Fellowship with other believers is important! God Bless :)
Amen. One of the best sermons I’ve seen. When we stop letting the enemy have control over our thoughts and emotions, and let God take control/submit to Jesus Christ, we realize the devil is powerless. As followers of Christ we have the authority to tread on scorpions and serpents!! Can I get an amen!!
Alexia Rodriguez I think you may have missed what Piper was saying. He said that God controls everything. You can’t allow or disallow anything and Satan can’t stop ir continue anything. God controls you and him like a puppet. You can’t say “if we....”. It’s “if God causes me to.....” and “if God causes Satan to....”. You’re like an inanimate object that must be moved about and thoughts placed in your head. At least this is what you have to believe if you assign to what Piper teaches. And if you do, then do t blame me for pointing this out, God made me do it. Take care.
@@evanu6579 But if you read the Bible God had allowed the demons to tempt us, it's only that when it comes to things like harming the body or some gifts which God has given us and satan wants to get hands on them, he asks permission.
My friend, Your own prayers will bear much fruit when they're from the heart. God promises us that we have Christ as our mediator, and that the Spirit himself intercedes for us. You need to pray. No-one knows your situation better than you. If nobody else prays for you, don't worry. You've got the power of Christ and the Holy Spirit backing you up. 👍
Glory be to Jesus, for he has make it possible for me to find this teaching, that feeds up my faith. Thank you for the sermon, dear brother in Christ Jesus
Amen, , Praise be to My King! I love you Jesus for doing things on out behalf in all our weaknes you are our strenght, in all our pain you are My Joy,, ,oh how i love you my LORD!, , , thank You LORD
Thank-you Pastor John Piper, this sermon was new to me as I never hear sermons on satan , people need to be aware of evil which is all from Satan and God's power over evil. Love Pastor John s sermons
Thank You Lord that we have You. If Your didn't exist the earth was really filled in darkness. No love. No mercy. That's why we thank you Lord for You and Your son Jesus for saving us. 😭💗
Thank you god for giving Satan permission to make my father rape me and now I have to forgive and love my father so I don't burn forever in an eternal fire along with being thankful for God for making me alive to experience the stuff he enables to happen
I’ve been a Christian for my whole life and I’m 19 years old and I am currently having a spiritual battle between good and evil, the devil is trying to pull me by telling me to leave my home and live somewhere else to deal drugs, make music and rap to the youth, make a gang and the devil said I can do all this and have fame and fortune, but I know deep down in my heart I want none of this and to continue to follow god and to follow his plan for my life it’s so hard as well because I suffer with anxiety stomach pains for 2 years now and it feels like the thug life is the only way to live covering my pain with drugs etc and I know it’s not worth it in the end but it’s my attitude now that just does not care anymore
Michael, you are about to make the biggest discovery of your life. Satan knows that you are getting promoted and he's trying to offer you something that is only temporary, I repeat temporary!!! it is not a life. God is got so much more for YOU- don't give in, I prophesied that by the end of this year you will see what is coming and God will make it big and better and More Beautiful. DON'T GIVE UP, DON'T GIVE IN.... Satan wants to steal your dream, he want to take what you got! but don't give him what you have. You will have Satan bowling at your feet that's how A powerful MOG, you will be, stay focus!!!! Michael, I will pray for you my brother, a great intercessor, i stand with you😊 call on the Lord!... YOU are a gold mine, and Satan wants yours treasure. He doesn't Rob those that don't have nothing to offer.
Wow this channel is such a blessing. I was wondering if this channel might be open to anyone contributing captions in Spanish (Latin American). So far I have received so much aid from your sermons and advices here and I am always left with a desire to share this with the Hispanic community. I don't know if I need permission to do this, but just in case. According to God's will, I hope to be in Bethlehem in 2 years or so and even study in Bethlehem College. God bless ya'll immensely, that you may be used further to advance the awakening of a Jesus-loving, bible saturated generation. Que bendición tan tremenda. What a tremendous blessing!! 🙏🙏✨
How does that work god please don't give Satan permission to do this please don't give Satan permission to do that you kidding me God's just going to allow it anyways
Just listened to this and it lines up with what God has been showing me for the past few weeks- God either sends it or allows it concerning his creation.
Amen father God I am not afraid of the Dragon Satan Lucifer devil. He's taken everything from me for the last 37 years my family in a past thank God I still have my mom and my step dad and my brother and my grandma but my grandpa have passed away both of them one from covid-19 and one from diabetes. Thank you Lord for keeping me alive this year and to be honest I will always continue fighting for the rest of my life. Amen God

I came across by the will of God Mark 5 in my Bible just now. Specifically Verses 6-13 about Jesus giving the demons permission to go into the herd of pigs out of the man. On a humorous note I always giggle imagining the sound of that many pigs squealing and jumping off of a cliff. 😅 God gave me a big sense of humor no offense. This led me to the website and this video when I searched about satan and his demons having to have permission from God. I never really thought so deeply about that and all that it entails!! I'm glad that God showed me this today because I needed this. I hope this blesses someone else also. This was reassurance to me that no weapon formed against us by people especially in my case will prosper. Thank you Lord 🙏✝️ Jesus Holy Spirit for this ❤ Blessings to everyone!!
That is 100% correct, God is Sovereign. Some people today foolishly believe that they can exert their sovereignty over God and yet they think that they are Christians. I am a born again true believer and I know that the totally honest relationship is the only relationship that God honours. I have been set free from sin, not claiming to be without sin, but free from condemnation and death and I have a greater loathing for sin especially when I am convinced of it, I avoid sin and my heart cries out for departure. I walk with The Lord and I love Him and want to be 100% pleasing to Him. I want to be like my Yeshua and when I am with him I will be like Him. He is Lord of my life and nothing else matters to me...
Hasim Hodzic What do you mean when you say that God is sovereign? Do you believe that He is in control of all things or that He is controlling all things?
Evan U , that is what the Bible teaches, that is the word that is used, that is demonstrated all through Scripture, the short answer is yes. I can give you a whole lot of Scriptural references if you want or just read the book of Job. Satan has to obey God...
Hasim Hodzic Thanks for replying. What I’m asking is if you think that God is in control of all things as in allowing or disallowing things to happen or.... Is God controlling all things in that He manipulates every action of every being. (Determinism) ?
dude that only means God does what only He wants! not what we want, not what we pray for, not what we expect, that is what it means! it doesn't matter whether you're loyal to him or not, He still goes ahead and does what He wants anyways. people like you think that if you're obedient to him then He'll suddenly give you the remote to change channels, and sadly both the good and the bad are in the same boat, no remote! even that Bible has it in black and white, no one deserves the Kingdom of Heaven, it shall be given as a gift to those that He chooses to give, not that anyone can reach or unlock a level where they are 'deserving' of it... so forget thinking you're better than anyone, actually it's worse if you're proud of yourself as that is one of the things He don't like
Matt 8 When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits _with his word,_ and healed all that were sick.
Acts 17: New testament 29 Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man’s device. let us not set our hearts upon riches and vain things of this world. for they surrelly must perish but take heed of the word of God Wich gives riches in the heavens were nothing can be taken from you. but love God with all your heart mind and streinght and do not worship false God's created by men. in the name of Jesus Christ. amen.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16 KJV, Ephesians 2:8-9, Jesus Christ is the only way....
+Traci Marrs..I really liked your answer!. I have had a Job experience for the last 26 years. I lost everything. My health, my family, my home, my savings.. Pretty much everything. And I wondered..why is God testing me? Why did He turn me over to Satan? but through this all..I remembered when I was 20 years old I made a very important decision..because I was following the teachings of men who got their ideas from the OT.. and I pushed Gods Warning down and made my decision anyway..for reasons of fear and pride and people pleasing (idols) I suffered greatly through that mistake..BUT I found Jesus..through this experience and have learned to Trust Jesus and Jesus Alone! I question Everything a man says..in the bible or out! It was Not God Who gave permission..nor was it Satan. It was all due to a mistake I made..not listening to Gods warning. It is very important to Listen to God..not men.
Lord Jesus said : ".. DO NOT AFRAID.. !!!" Regardless what happened in this world... you must fight the devil with your mind !!! its not about the manifesto of the materialistic world... its about YOURSELF !!! Its about your MIND !!! ... satan targeting your mind !!! ... so you must fight him with your own MIND !!!
Without prayer, we cannot know God. If we do not know God, we cannot love Him. If we do not love God, we cannot keep His commandments nor discern His will. God wants to pursue a relationship with us and that is only made possible when God first shines His light into our hearts that leads us to turn away from our sin and run towards Him. Prayer is our response to God's calling and the means by which we grow in our relationship with Him, as well as knowledge of Him.
@@alan137 thanks for that elaboration. Too often people think of prayer mainly as a means of getting physical things from God. Knowing God, His will, receiving grace to live godly are some of the most important reasons why we pray.

Why do Christian’s always say GOD has the ultimate decision in everything. They seem to blame the devil . Jesus came to give life in abundance not to take it away. So I believe all the bad things in this world the devil is to blame . Not because GOD says ok do it . He is a destroyer a hungry lion . He destroys everything he can . As children of GOD we are in His hands and he will protect us from satan . He will ask permission to harm us .
My question is this...Why are we so upset with satan when it's god that's letting satan do this evil things? If god gives satan a key to enter into someone's house and steal their stuff, isn't god as equal responsible?
That was only in Job"s case, because God had a hedge around him and his family, Satan knew that. The same is not true for everyone else, there wide open to Satan, only Yeshua has power to stop him, thats why you must repent, be baptized and worship Yeshua.
It’s not only in Jobs case, Baal had to listen to the commandments of God too even though he’s Baal evil just like Satan. Remember God created good and evil. Read your Bible with understanding and if you don’t understand ask for understanding.
I don't believe people go out and say Hey I want the devil to come into my life. That's not a true statement; many let in or allow the Satan and his demons in because of ignorance , lack of knowledge. Now, when Satan and his DEMONS comes in and possess the physical body; he owns it, and he runs it and he CONTROLS it. So how is that free will?
@@managermddirect6045 Wrong. The devil does not have that authority. The devil can only influence you to do whats wrong. The final decision belongs to you on whether to take that action. The devil is not like God. God is all-powerful, everywhere present, and all-knowing. Satan is none of these. He does not have unlimited power, he cannot be everywhere at once, and he does not know everything. He is a created, limited being. He depends upon God for his existence. When Satan approached God, he did not come as an equal, but rather as a subordinate. - there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them (Job 1:6). Satan was unable to tempt Jesus without the permission of the Holy Spirit. -Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the Devil (Matthew 4:1). Also Satan ( The Devil ) is a coward.... In spite of all his bluster and rage, he is a coward. The Bible says: - Be subject therefore unto God; but resist the Devil, and he will flee from you (James 4:7).
@@B..P.. why DID JESUS Cast OUT DEMONS from many people in the bible?? If demons can not posses PEOPLE, why did Jesus cast out demons and heal the SICK?? Do YOU Cast out demons from people, do YOU heal the sick???
Everyone is subject to the will of god who is sovereign over ALL. Freewill Christians may as well believe in two gods or many gods because they think there is a will outside of god's will.
Every question like this you have about the Bible and god and Satan will be answered if you use Strong’s concordance to read the Bible. It shows what’s really being said! Hebrew and Greek are the original languages back when Bible was written so strongs shows the words in their original intended meaning. You’re mind will be blown!
Does everybody get the same punishment in hell? Or is there levels of evilness. Sometimes I feel like I barely fell short of God and my reality is my hell. I have 7+ different disorders, diseases, possibly cancers. It feels like I'm being tormented. Especially with my gastroparesis. And a lifetime of muscular dystrophy pain. I just hope God have something important planned for me for a lifetime of pain. Maybe I have a very specific demon to fight when Jesus return because I've always been faithful but a sinner.
pain is delivered with a guarantee to hurt in life and is widely made available to all under the sun yet promises of good life and health and wealth are so rare it's not difficult to understand why a God so powerful would send people to write his public speech on his behalf and sell it too in Bookshops. The only verse I agree with is that 'God does that which pleases Him', and I can guarantee you whatever that is has nothing to do with our wailing and cries for help, more about 'his Kingdom and glory' than about what we need or want in life, it's more about what He wants!
If thats the case, then why doesnt god forbid satan to leave innocent children alone, and not rape and molest them . He has to get gods permission first, right? This is what makes it hard for me to believe in a god like that. I ask god this question every day. We have a roaming lion, on our hands, but the zoo keeper doesnt want to catch him just quiet yet.
Well that person doesn’t have God and the Holy Spirit in them so they basically can possess someone if they aren’t reaching out for God or have him in their life.
I deal with demonic oppression but they can’t possess me bcus I have the Holy Spirit and God won’t allow them to take over my body bcus he owns my body. So we Christians still can be oppressed by demons but we can’t be possessed id we belong to God.
Can i just point out that unclean cannot obey God as they are in rebellion to Him & under the enemy's influence. Or we wouldn't hv a spiritual battle if they obeyed God.
I just had this question the other day!! Does Satan have to announce what he plans to do before he does it, so that those that have eyes to see and ears to hear can descern ?
The Bible says we are not ignorant of the devices of the devil. We know generally what he is capable of and sometimes God may reveal to us the specifics of what Satan is up to. In any case whether we know or not about what he's up to, we can always be rest assured Christ was manifested to destroy the works of the devil and gave us victory over him.
Nice to know there was Satan who once ruled the world, because Jesus defeated him and made him his footstool, else we would see him as a roaring lion. I am a new testament believer and Satan was judged and so shall this guy.
@thatrandom guy my friend 'through' Christ is the clue to salvation, we start as undeserving sinners, but 'through' Christ we can deserve salvation. We can become those on his right hand as Matthew 25: 34 deserving salvation by good works, not earning salvation, because it is only by good judgement of Christ that by his grace he forgives (covers) past sins. Through is by the means of, we need justification through Christ, only the righteous are saved as Matthew 25 :37. That aside I am troubled by your second paragraph so can I ask what you think will happen if he were to come again? Would he come to slaughter with a sword? Jesus Christ is now and forever will be in heaven judging souls, that is my Praeterist view, as I have faith in the words of Jesus that he would return to heaven in judgement in that generation when the temple was destroyed.
Pertaining to the example given over Peter, was his restoration a total outcome of the sovereign will of God expressed through Christ prayer for him or it was inclusive of Peter's will. Why didn't he pray for Judas Iscariot?
Sometimes you have to wonder who is evil? Especially if god knew they were going to sin anyway but still allowed everything to happen then isnt that worse?
Knowing that something will happen is not the same as causing it to happen. We are prone to sin because of our fallen nature. Sometimes God chooses to help us resist that sin, sometimes he chooses to let us learn from that sin, and sometimes he chooses to let our sin show others why sin is such a bad thing and why they need the salvation of Christ. It is God's choice.
it would have been better to be created as mindless robots instead, this creation is a trap and heartbreaking experiment because no one asked to be born in the first place, it's a bloody trap, and the more one looks for answers the more questions come up, the more one looks for help, more problems crop up, the entire design was a big flop and now everyone's trying to hide the flaws by forcing themselves to accept the pain and helplessness. its so sad, we have a powerful God who's not eager to leave the comfort of heaven to answer even a fraction of our prayers, we die holding on to hope, praying for things we never see in our lifetime, let's just hope those who will get to world 2.0 won't get a repeat of such tragedy and travesty
It gets better. God is omnipotent, omnipresent and omniscient. Nothing proves anything to god. Because he already knows everything. He does everything for his own pleasure.
@@robadams8939 it’s like he created his personal video game like sim city on a higher level. The trick is that we humans are consciously aware of our pain and torment that is brought on us as opposed to a video game npc. Some wicked stuff man.
We are not pawns. We are the sons and daughters of the one true God God never promised we wouldn't have struggles here on earth but he does promise to always be there and get us through it and that's why he sent Jesus to die on the cross To save us from sin and from eternity in hell because he wants us in Heaven with him, but it's our choice to choose him or not
I don't know what I am, I know I am human, I have sinned so many times but it doesn't bother me. I am human is it not natural, god is a figment of our imaginations which we use to make ourselfs feel better about each other, we use Satan as an excuse to do bad things and then confess to god please someone explain to me why they do this heaven is a place people use to comfort themselves to make them feel better about death. I am not a cathic or a atheist I am confused please someone explain
Alexis Saaghy ruclips.net/video/VpsoKUFpNKs/видео.html I sympathize with you. Life is confusing and feels like a tragic comedy sometimes. I’ve also thought the thoughts you think, and have questions myself. I’m a Christian, I’ve pleaded with Jesus to help me in a hard time because the things I was doing and the beliefs I held weren’t helping me in leading a constructive lifestyle. I think maybe he has heard me, I’m different than how I was. Yet, is it all true or is it just a belief I hold that has no meaning in our world? One thing is certain: it’s a belief that has helped me more than the atheist-like belief I clung to. Anyway, here is a video link discussing God’s existence, maybe it will help answer some of your questions and if not, perhaps it will push you to search for more answers. It’s by Creation Live Magazine, and each of their episodes are about 30 minutes long. They discuss all sorts of topics and bring science into the discussion. I highly recommend you watch it. If it doesn’t change your mind, at least you now have learned some of the arguments of a Christian belief.
Now, this relates to your first statement about God being fictitious. As for Satan, his influence, our sin, and the afterlife (if any of that is a thing) I don’t think this video covers, but if you’re truly interested, I can send other videos that speak on that that might give you understanding. Anyway, I believe that if you can’t trust a religious doctrine because it holds no scientific basis, then you wouldn’t trust the spiritual teachings of that doctrine either. Creation Live attempts to prove the Bible’s factual accuracy and thus sets a basis for believing in its spiritual aspects. Maybe this will help you. If not, don’t quit the search for truth and keep asking questions and keep listening for the answers.
Interesting God commanded Satan not to Physically harm Job. There's not many Jobs in the World, Men are Lovers of Money and of them selves and Put these before loyalty to God. Amen Brother thanks for shareing.
Question. I have been out and had men turn to look at me with their eyes rolled back in their head. Why would God give them permission to manifest in front of me? I am a baby Christian, on fire for God.
I agree with John Piper in almost everything but not on God's Sovereignty over sin. It, in some way, makes people less responsible for the sins they have committed and also diminishes Jesus' spectacular act on the cross.
God cannot sin nor tempt anyone to sin. God withholds the wickedness of the hearts of all mankind. When God allows someone to sin, he simply releases his withholding power upon the subject, and, by the sinful hearts operations, the subject itself brings forth the sin, accomplishing God’s purpose in the action, whether it be justice or an act of his providence over all his creatures for the purpose of his good pleasure.
How can you guys take this as consultation. You guys do realize that God is allowing the devil to cause suffering right. My mother once told me this. "If you look upon evil, having the ability to intervene and stop it, and not exercising that ability, you are no better than the one who commits the evil because you allow it to happen. God expects so much of us. He questions us, but warns of questioning him. God claims not to exercise favoritism. However, he will choose who to have mercy and compassion on and who not to. God claims to live us yet gives us impossible standards to live up to, and on top of that distanced himself. We ask questions, and he doesn't answer, we pray, and they go unanswered. God expects us to draw near to him when he doesn't bother to draw near to us.
God Gives us free Will. God and Satan Work Hand in Hand. Who else to test you? To see..if you do..as God commands? What good are you? If you are never tested?
Satan is subject to God, and only has power which God allows. When men reject God, they are turned over to Satan. In any case God is fair, and righteous at all times. Satan only has power over the individual with that individuals consent.
The church has not had the victory very much because it does not do what the word says and does not believe it ,but there is small progress going on some where ,,the church will finaly believe and build the Kingdom of God and have the full victory on earth for the human race ,meanwhile the devil does what he wants ,God protecting the small flock that seek understanding
The true church/invisible church (the sum total of obedient followers) has never once failed to secure the victory through God. God always fulfils his purposes in the church. The established/visible church, however, is another matter entirely. Let's not confuse the two. "I will build my church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it."
Satan has not been expelled from heaven yet: When he does ; "....woe for the earth and the sea, because the Devil has come down to you, having great anger,knowing he has a short period of time" Rev - 12 : 12. You aint seen nothing yet, and with your faith as weak as it is speaking falsehoods, you have no show against Satan, simply because you have not put your trust in the Almighty Sovereign of the universe. But instead you are from your Father Satan: He was a liar when he began, and you are perpetuating your Father's lies.
That's a funny way of explaining that the murdering and suffering of countless lives (believers included) only happens with the approval and authorization of God.
Satan was not an Angel, he was among the genies. Angels do not commit sins, they are sinless creatures by their creation and they cannot commit sin. After creating Adam, God commanded all Angels to bow before Adam. Satan as one of the genies ( was staying among Angels as a non-Angel) refused because he was made from fire, while humans are only made from clay
@@popcorn0038 It is the Islamic belief on this matter. In our belief Angels obey whatever God tells them to do and they are made of Noor ( Light ). However Genies are made of smokeless fire and they are in examination just like Human beings. Angels are not in examination since they do not make decisions against what God commands. Satan was obedient to God at the beginnings , but then disobeyed because of his hatred toward human beings.

I think you may have missed what Piper was saying. He said that God controls everything. You can’t allow or disallow anything and Satan can’t stop ir continue anything. God controls you and him like a puppet.
You can’t say “if we....”. It’s “if God causes me to.....” and “if God causes Satan to....”.
You’re like an inanimate object that must be moved about and thoughts placed in your head.
At least this is what you have to believe if you assign to what Piper teaches.

Thank you god for giving Satan permission to make my father rape me and now I have to forgive and love my father so I don't burn forever in an eternal fire along with being thankful for God for making me alive to experience the stuff he enables to happen
I’ve been a Christian for my whole life and I’m 19 years old and I am currently having a spiritual battle between good and evil, the devil is trying to pull me by telling me to leave my home and live somewhere else to deal drugs, make music and rap to the youth, make a gang and the devil said I can do all this and have fame and fortune, but I know deep down in my heart I want none of this and to continue to follow god and to follow his plan for my life it’s so hard as well because I suffer with anxiety stomach pains for 2 years now and it feels like the thug life is the only way to live covering my pain with drugs etc and I know it’s not worth it in the end but it’s my attitude now that just does not care anymore
Michael, you are about to make the biggest discovery of your life. Satan knows that you are getting promoted and he's trying to offer you something that is only temporary, I repeat temporary!!! it is not a life. God is got so much more for YOU- don't give in, I prophesied that by the end of this year you will see what is coming and God will make it big and better and More Beautiful. DON'T GIVE UP, DON'T GIVE IN.... Satan wants to steal your dream, he want to take what you got! but don't give him what you have. You will have Satan bowling at your feet that's how A powerful MOG, you will be, stay focus!!!! Michael, I will pray for you my brother, a great intercessor, i stand with you😊 call on the Lord!... YOU are a gold mine, and Satan wants yours treasure. He doesn't Rob those that don't have nothing to offer.
Accept you need God, seek Him and He will be part of your life. Turn to Him. I hope you are doing alright man.
Please pray for me that my desires will be changed and I be delivered from the Evil one. That I may no longer run from the light.
So strengthening at such a moment when I am struggling to understand what I am going through and why. Thank you Pr. John Piper 👏
Wow this channel is such a blessing. I was wondering if this channel might be open to anyone contributing captions in Spanish (Latin American).
So far I have received so much aid from your sermons and advices here and I am always left with a desire to share this with the Hispanic community. I don't know if I need permission to do this, but just in case. According to God's will, I hope to be in Bethlehem in 2 years or so and even study in Bethlehem College. God bless ya'll immensely, that you may be used further to advance the awakening of a Jesus-loving, bible saturated generation. Que bendición tan tremenda. What a tremendous blessing!! 🙏🙏✨

How does that work god please don't give Satan permission to do this please don't give Satan permission to do that you kidding me God's just going to allow it anyways
i LOVED this preaching and will be back again and again
Just listened to this and it lines up with what God has been showing me for the past few weeks- God either sends it or allows it concerning his creation.

I came across by the will of God Mark 5 in my Bible just now. Specifically Verses 6-13 about Jesus giving the demons permission to go into the herd of pigs out of the man. On a humorous note I always giggle imagining the sound of that many pigs squealing and jumping off of a cliff. 😅 God gave me a big sense of humor no offense. This led me to the website and this video when I searched about satan and his demons having to have permission from God. I never really thought so deeply about that and all that it entails!! I'm glad that God showed me this today because I needed this. I hope this blesses someone else also. This was reassurance to me that no weapon formed against us by people especially in my case will prosper. Thank you Lord 🙏✝️ Jesus Holy Spirit for this ❤ Blessings to everyone!!
That is 100% correct, God is Sovereign. Some people today foolishly believe that they can exert their sovereignty over God and yet they think that they are Christians. I am a born again true believer and I know that the totally honest relationship is the only relationship that God honours. I have been set free from sin, not claiming to be without sin, but free from condemnation and death and I have a greater loathing for sin especially when I am convinced of it, I avoid sin and my heart cries out for departure. I walk with The Lord and I love Him and want to be 100% pleasing to Him. I want to be like my Yeshua and when I am with him I will be like Him. He is Lord of my life and nothing else matters to me...
Hasim Hodzic
What do you mean when you say that God is sovereign?
Do you believe that He is in control of all things or that He is controlling all things?
Evan U , that is what the Bible teaches, that is the word that is used, that is demonstrated all through Scripture, the short answer is yes. I can give you a whole lot of Scriptural references if you want or just read the book of Job. Satan has to obey God...
Hasim Hodzic
Thanks for replying.
What I’m asking is if you think that God is in control of all things as in allowing or disallowing things to happen or....
Is God controlling all things in that He manipulates every action of every being. (Determinism) ?
dude that only means God does what only He wants! not what we want, not what we pray for, not what we expect, that is what it means! it doesn't matter whether you're loyal to him or not, He still goes ahead and does what He wants anyways. people like you think that if you're obedient to him then He'll suddenly give you the remote to change channels, and sadly both the good and the bad are in the same boat, no remote! even that Bible has it in black and white, no one deserves the Kingdom of Heaven, it shall be given as a gift to those that He chooses to give, not that anyone can reach or unlock a level where they are 'deserving' of it... so forget thinking you're better than anyone, actually it's worse if you're proud of yourself as that is one of the things He don't like
Thank you God for your servants

let us not set our hearts upon riches and vain things of this world. for they surrelly must perish but take heed of the word of God Wich gives riches in the heavens were nothing can be taken from you. but love God with all your heart mind and streinght and do not worship false God's created by men. in the name of Jesus Christ. amen.

+Traci Marrs..I really liked your answer!. I have had a Job experience for the last 26 years. I lost everything. My health, my family, my home, my savings.. Pretty much everything. And I wondered..why is God testing me? Why did He turn me over to Satan? but through this all..I remembered when I was 20 years old I made a very important decision..because I was following the teachings of men who got their ideas from the OT.. and I pushed Gods Warning down and made my decision anyway..for reasons of fear and pride and people pleasing (idols) I suffered greatly through that mistake..BUT I found Jesus..through this experience and have learned to Trust Jesus and Jesus Alone! I question Everything a man says..in the bible or out! It was Not God Who gave permission..nor was it Satan. It was all due to a mistake I made..not listening to Gods warning. It is very important to Listen to God..not men.
Lord Jesus said : ".. DO NOT AFRAID.. !!!"
Regardless what happened in this world... you must fight the devil with your mind !!!
its not about the manifesto of the materialistic world... its about YOURSELF !!! Its about your MIND !!! ... satan targeting your mind !!! ... so you must fight him with your own MIND !!!

His message is blasphemous. Calvinism is evil. Why do you agree with such wicked doctrines?
If our suffering and blessings are willed by God, why do we pray? What impact do we await?
Without prayer, we cannot know God. If we do not know God, we cannot love Him. If we do not love God, we cannot keep His commandments nor discern His will. God wants to pursue a relationship with us and that is only made possible when God first shines His light into our hearts that leads us to turn away from our sin and run towards Him. Prayer is our response to God's calling and the means by which we grow in our relationship with Him, as well as knowledge of Him.
@@alan137 thanks for that elaboration. Too often people think of prayer mainly as a means of getting physical things from God.
Knowing God, His will, receiving grace to live godly are some of the most important reasons why we pray.
Wooow that is really good!!
The Bible does not say that Satan has to ask permission to attack.
Well said

Why do Christian’s always say GOD has the ultimate decision in everything. They seem to blame the devil . Jesus came to give life in abundance not to take it away. So I believe all the bad things in this world the devil is to blame . Not because GOD says ok do it . He is a destroyer a hungry lion . He destroys everything he can . As children of GOD we are in His hands and he will protect us from satan . He will ask permission to harm us .
My question is this...Why are we so upset with satan when it's god that's letting satan do this evil things? If god gives satan a key to enter into someone's house and steal their stuff, isn't god as equal responsible?
El Gigante Dios.
So god wants evil although he can just tell the devil no. And people think it’s ok cause god has some plan.
So what your trying to tell me that.... All our problems are caused by God right?? So we don't need to fear Satan... We just have to fear God...
Very good 😄😄😄
That was only in Job"s case, because God had a hedge around him and his family, Satan knew that. The same is not true for everyone else, there wide open to Satan, only Yeshua has power to stop him, thats why you must repent, be baptized and worship Yeshua.
It’s not only in Jobs case, Baal had to listen to the commandments of God too even though he’s Baal evil just like Satan. Remember God created good and evil. Read your Bible with understanding and if you don’t understand ask for understanding.
GOD NEVER ORDAINED WHOMEVER TO DISOBEY. BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR "GOSPEL"!
LITTLE LEAVEN RISES ALL THE DOUGH!
Job was old testament. Now it us that often unwittingly, give the enemy a foothold into our lives.
Babs Skett What?
I don't believe people go out and say Hey I want the devil to come into my life. That's not a true statement; many let in or allow the Satan and his demons in because of ignorance , lack of knowledge. Now, when Satan and his DEMONS comes in and possess the physical body; he owns it, and he runs it and he CONTROLS it. So how is that free will?
@@managermddirect6045 Wrong.
The devil does not have that authority. The devil can only influence you to do whats wrong. The final decision belongs to you on whether to take that action.
The devil is not like God. God is all-powerful, everywhere present, and all-knowing. Satan is none of these. He does not have unlimited power, he cannot be everywhere at once, and he does not know everything. He is a created, limited being. He depends upon God for his existence.
When Satan approached God, he did not come as an equal, but rather as a subordinate.
- there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them (Job 1:6).
Satan was unable to tempt Jesus without the permission of the Holy Spirit.
-Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the Devil (Matthew 4:1).
Also Satan ( The Devil ) is a coward....
In spite of all his bluster and rage, he is a coward. The Bible says:
- Be subject therefore unto God; but resist the Devil, and he will flee from you (James 4:7).

Everyone is subject to the will of god who is sovereign over ALL. Freewill Christians may as well believe in two gods or many gods because they think there is a will outside of god's will.
Every question like this you have about the Bible and god and Satan will be answered if you use Strong’s concordance to read the Bible. It shows what’s really being said! Hebrew and Greek are the original languages back when Bible was written so strongs shows the words in their original intended meaning. You’re mind will be blown!
How is Strong's concordance used to answer questions, mine is more like a dictionary.
Does everybody get the same punishment in hell? Or is there levels of evilness. Sometimes I feel like I barely fell short of God and my reality is my hell. I have 7+ different disorders, diseases, possibly cancers. It feels like I'm being tormented. Especially with my gastroparesis. And a lifetime of muscular dystrophy pain. I just hope God have something important planned for me for a lifetime of pain. Maybe I have a very specific demon to fight when Jesus return because I've always been faithful but a sinner.
pain is delivered with a guarantee to hurt in life and is widely made available to all under the sun yet promises of good life and health and wealth are so rare it's not difficult to understand why a God so powerful would send people to write his public speech on his behalf and sell it too in Bookshops. The only verse I agree with is that 'God does that which pleases Him', and I can guarantee you whatever that is has nothing to do with our wailing and cries for help, more about 'his Kingdom and glory' than about what we need or want in life, it's more about what He wants!
Amen and Amen

If thats the case, then why doesnt god forbid satan to leave innocent children alone, and not rape and molest them . He has to get gods permission first, right? This is what makes it hard for me to believe in a god like that. I ask god this question every day. We have a roaming lion, on our hands, but the zoo keeper doesnt want to catch him just quiet yet.
What about Demonic entities that possess the living. Does God grant them permission to take over ones soul.
Well that person doesn’t have God and the Holy Spirit in them so they basically can possess someone if they aren’t reaching out for God or have him in their life.
I deal with demonic oppression but they can’t possess me bcus I have the Holy Spirit and God won’t allow them to take over my body bcus he owns my body. So we Christians still can be oppressed by demons but we can’t be possessed id we belong to God.
Can i just point out that unclean cannot obey God as they are in rebellion to Him & under the enemy's influence. Or we wouldn't hv a spiritual battle if they obeyed God.
Should hv said unclean spirits.
I just had this question the other day!! Does Satan have to announce what he plans to do before he does it, so that those that have eyes to see and ears to hear can descern ?
kathy landry nope. God just has to allow him
The Bible says we are not ignorant of the devices of the devil. We know generally what he is capable of and sometimes God may reveal to us the specifics of what Satan is up to. In any case whether we know or not about what he's up to, we can always be rest assured Christ was manifested to destroy the works of the devil and gave us victory over him.
Satan is just a servant of God, one of God’s agents, who’s job is to temp the people, test their faith.
Bruh God knows Satans plans why would satan needs to tell God what he’s gonna do smh
IVE SEEN JESUS CHRIST, HES STILL ALIVE
How can we hear this sermon and still question the origin of evil?
Nice to know there was Satan who once ruled the world, because Jesus defeated him and made him his footstool, else we would see him as a roaring lion. I am a new testament believer and Satan was judged and so shall this guy.
@thatrandom guy did Jesus come to Save or Judge?
This man thinks he came to Save, I say he came to Judge, and his judgement can Save the deserving.
@thatrandom guy my friend 'through' Christ is the clue to salvation, we start as undeserving sinners, but 'through' Christ we can deserve salvation. We can become those on his right hand as Matthew 25: 34 deserving salvation by good works, not earning salvation, because it is only by good judgement of Christ that by his grace he forgives (covers) past sins. Through is by the means of, we need justification through Christ, only the righteous are saved as Matthew 25 :37.
That aside I am troubled by your second paragraph so can I ask what you think will happen if he were to come again? Would he come to slaughter with a sword?
Jesus Christ is now and forever will be in heaven judging souls, that is my Praeterist view, as I have faith in the words of Jesus that he would return to heaven in judgement in that generation when the temple was destroyed.
@@simonskinner1450 he came to save and he died on the cross but to judge he will on his second coming.
@@memyself523 we agree there for sure. Though I believe he already returned as he said he would when the temple was destroyed in AD70.

If satan needs permission, WHY does God allow cruelty to animals? They have never sinned so why should they suffer?
I'm waiting for the sixth seal to open - June 8, 2020
Pertaining to the example given over Peter, was his restoration a total outcome of the sovereign will of God expressed through Christ prayer for him or it was inclusive of Peter's will. Why didn't he pray for Judas Iscariot?
Sometimes you have to wonder who is evil? Especially if god knew they were going to sin anyway but still allowed everything to happen then isnt that worse?
Knowing that something will happen is not the same as causing it to happen. We are prone to sin because of our fallen nature. Sometimes God chooses to help us resist that sin, sometimes he chooses to let us learn from that sin, and sometimes he chooses to let our sin show others why sin is such a bad thing and why they need the salvation of Christ. It is God's choice.
a fruit doesn't fall far from the tree!
it would have been better to be created as mindless robots instead, this creation is a trap and heartbreaking experiment because no one asked to be born in the first place, it's a bloody trap, and the more one looks for answers the more questions come up, the more one looks for help, more problems crop up, the entire design was a big flop and now everyone's trying to hide the flaws by forcing themselves to accept the pain and helplessness. its so sad, we have a powerful God who's not eager to leave the comfort of heaven to answer even a fraction of our prayers, we die holding on to hope, praying for things we never see in our lifetime, let's just hope those who will get to world 2.0 won't get a repeat of such tragedy and travesty
And God always says YES to Satan, like he did Job. Us humans are pawns in this Gods Game between him and Satan.
It gets better. God is omnipotent, omnipresent and omniscient. Nothing proves anything to god. Because he already knows everything. He does everything for his own pleasure.
@@robadams8939 it’s like he created his personal video game like sim city on a higher level. The trick is that we humans are consciously aware of our pain and torment that is brought on us as opposed to a video game npc. Some wicked stuff man.
We are not pawns. We are the sons and daughters of the one true God
God never promised we wouldn't have struggles here on earth but he does promise to always be there and get us through it and that's why he sent Jesus to die on the cross
To save us from sin and from eternity in hell because he wants us in Heaven with him, but it's our choice to choose him or not
I don't know what I am, I know I am human, I have sinned so many times but it doesn't bother me. I am human is it not natural, god is a figment of our imaginations which we use to make ourselfs feel better about each other, we use Satan as an excuse to do bad things and then confess to god please someone explain to me why they do this heaven is a place people use to comfort themselves to make them feel better about death. I am not a cathic or a atheist I am confused please someone explain

I sympathize with you. Life is confusing and feels like a tragic comedy sometimes. I’ve also thought the thoughts you think, and have questions myself. I’m a Christian, I’ve pleaded with Jesus to help me in a hard time because the things I was doing and the beliefs I held weren’t helping me in leading a constructive lifestyle. I think maybe he has heard me, I’m different than how I was. Yet, is it all true or is it just a belief I hold that has no meaning in our world? One thing is certain: it’s a belief that has helped me more than the atheist-like belief I clung to. Anyway, here is a video link discussing God’s existence, maybe it will help answer some of your questions and if not, perhaps it will push you to search for more answers. It’s by Creation Live Magazine, and each of their episodes are about 30 minutes long. They discuss all sorts of topics and bring science into the discussion. I highly recommend you watch it. If it doesn’t change your mind, at least you now have learned some of the arguments of a Christian belief.
Now, this relates to your first statement about God being fictitious. As for Satan, his influence, our sin, and the afterlife (if any of that is a thing) I don’t think this video covers, but if you’re truly interested, I can send other videos that speak on that that might give you understanding. Anyway, I believe that if you can’t trust a religious doctrine because it holds no scientific basis, then you wouldn’t trust the spiritual teachings of that doctrine either. Creation Live attempts to prove the Bible’s factual accuracy and thus sets a basis for believing in its spiritual aspects. Maybe this will help you. If not, don’t quit the search for truth and keep asking questions and keep listening for the answers.
Interesting God commanded Satan not to Physically harm Job. There's not many Jobs in the World, Men are Lovers of Money and of them selves and Put these before loyalty to God. Amen Brother thanks for shareing.
Question. I have been out and had men turn to look at me with their eyes rolled back in their head. Why would God give them permission to manifest in front of me? I am a baby Christian, on fire for God.
I agree with John Piper in almost everything but not on God's Sovereignty over sin. It, in some way, makes people less responsible for the sins they have committed and also diminishes Jesus' spectacular act on the cross.
titus dinkar
Calvinism is a wicked doctrine. I agree with you
God bless
God cannot sin nor tempt anyone to sin. God withholds the wickedness of the hearts of all mankind. When God allows someone to sin, he simply releases his withholding power upon the subject, and, by the sinful hearts operations, the subject itself brings forth the sin, accomplishing God’s purpose in the action, whether it be justice or an act of his providence over all his creatures for the purpose of his good pleasure.
@@rpntnbcnvrtd8388 2 years later now I understand God's sovereignty more than ever before thanks to God for R C Sproul, Voddie Baucham etc.
How can you guys take this as consultation. You guys do realize that God is allowing the devil to cause suffering right. My mother once told me this. "If you look upon evil, having the ability to intervene and stop it, and not exercising that ability, you are no better than the one who commits the evil because you allow it to happen. God expects so much of us. He questions us, but warns of questioning him. God claims not to exercise favoritism. However, he will choose who to have mercy and compassion on and who not to. God claims to live us yet gives us impossible standards to live up to, and on top of that distanced himself. We ask questions, and he doesn't answer, we pray, and they go unanswered. God expects us to draw near to him when he doesn't bother to draw near to us.
God Gives us free Will. God and Satan Work Hand in Hand. Who else to test you? To see..if you do..as God commands? What good are you? If you are never tested?
Worship a God who tests us?? Never! You are a human being God damnit! Not some damn chess piece. Open your eyes and see the truth!
Satan is subject to God, and only has power which God allows. When men reject God, they are turned over to Satan. In any case God is fair, and righteous at all times. Satan only has power over the individual with that individuals consent.
so you're saying Job got boils on his skin because he gave Satan consent?! nonsense
i dont think satans stupid bro
I want to know why God allows cruelty to innocent animals. They never sinned. Why must they suffer the cruelties of mankind?
The church has not had the victory very much because it does not do what the word says and does not believe it ,but there is small progress going on some where ,,the church will finaly believe and build the Kingdom of God and have the full victory on earth for the human race ,meanwhile the devil does what he wants ,God protecting the small flock that seek understanding
The true church/invisible church (the sum total of obedient followers) has never once failed to secure the victory through God. God always fulfils his purposes in the church. The established/visible church, however, is another matter entirely. Let's not confuse the two. "I will build my church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it."
When God does not give permission warrior angels come, in the name and by the blood of Jesus Christ I pray: amen!
Satan has not been expelled from heaven yet: When he does ; "....woe for the earth and the sea, because the Devil has come down to you, having great anger,knowing he has a
short period of time" Rev - 12 : 12. You aint seen nothing yet, and with your faith as weak as it is speaking falsehoods, you have no show against Satan, simply because you have
not put your trust in the Almighty Sovereign of the universe. But instead you are from your Father Satan: He was a liar when he began, and you are perpetuating your Father's lies.
That's a funny way of explaining that the murdering and suffering of countless lives (believers included) only happens with the approval and authorization of God.

OK i see Peter 5:9 but that in every translation says the Devil. Yet it does not say Satan. Where does it say Satan?
Satan was not an Angel, he was among the genies.
Angels do not commit sins, they are sinless creatures by their creation and they cannot commit sin.
After creating Adam, God commanded all Angels to bow before Adam.
Satan as one of the genies ( was staying among Angels as a non-Angel) refused because he was made from fire, while humans are only made from clay
Hakan Duman where theee heck did you got those from
@@popcorn0038 It is the Islamic belief on this matter. In our belief Angels obey whatever God tells them to do and they are made of Noor ( Light ).
However Genies are made of smokeless fire and they are in examination just like Human beings.
Angels are not in examination since they do not make decisions against what God commands.
Satan was obedient to God at the beginnings , but then disobeyed because of his hatred toward human beings.
