Introduction
I have heard about the existence of satanic church in America in the eighties which commenced in 1960. In the world, there were 50,000 satanic worshippers in 1990. The population must have been increased to few lakhs within a period of fourteen years in 2013.
In Nagaland, a Christian dominated state with 95 percent of Christian population targeted by Satan in the top list, I read about the existence of 3000 satanic worshippers in Kohima on the 19th April, 2013 through the Morung Express for the first time. Surprisingly, on the 30th April, 2013.
The aforesaid newspaper reported that the figure has jumped up to 5000 according to the testimony of the top six satanic worshipper delivered from the bondage of satan . Thus, it is no wonder to send a red signal that Nagaland is contributing as one of the highest figures of satanic worship in the world today worthy to be entered in the Book of Genius record!
Youth: main target group of satan
Out of my field research, it has been confirmed without any doubt that Satan is targeting the youth who consist of 65 per cent of the total population most vulnerable to his attack. So that tomorrow there will be a famine of Godly leaders and genuine followers of Jesus Christ in the land to carry forward the gospel of the kingdom of God.
Demoniac possession in gender wise
Among the people possessed by Satan and his evil spirits, girls consist of 75 per cent, women-5 per cent and men-20 per cent. Lucifer is continuing to use the same strategy he used in the Garden of Eden, Noah’s time, sin of Sodom and Gomorrah; worshippers of Satan are drawn from all walks of life.
Kohima, the Headquarter of Lucifer
Out of the testimony of the top one and seven possessed by Lucifer from among 5000 satanic worshippers already delivered, it has been ascertained that Lucifer planned to make Kohima, the capital of Nagaland to be his headquarter! So that Nagaland may be conquered in no time taking the advantage of the dead church who cannot fight the spiritual battle to the joy of Lucifer, the founder of rebellion, disobedience, lust, deception and destruction.
Recruitment drive in Satanism
Speedy recruitment drive in Satanism by distributing application form is going on in full swing led by Lucifer the commander-in-chief and his large army of evil spirits deceiving and seducing the innocent believers mostly youth. He collaborates with the talented church leaders, heads of institutions, government officials, businessmen etcetera. So watch out carefully not be seduced to join his army. Meanwhile, take steps to prevent people not to join the destructive kingdom of satan which will lead you to hell.
Biblical fulfillment of antichrist
The aforesaid movement of Satan is a direct fulfillment of the Biblical revelation of deception, disobedience, rebellion and destruction recorded in John 10:10:2, Timothy 3:1-5. The antichrist with his identification number bearing 666 and the powerful Dragon led by Lucifer is raging full scale war against the Christians on war footing (Rev. 13:1-18).So that we may be able to escape the attack of satan and escape from his captivity because Christ has come to set us free from sin and death on the cross (Luke 4:18)
Strategy of Satan
Satan and his huge army of evil spirits and demons have a well planned strategy to seduce God’s people and His servants through the following methods.
Some of them are listed below:
1. Easy and dirty money;
2. Sexual immorality/crime-free sex, rape, murder, incest, child abuse, abortion etcetera;
3. Drug abuse/ drug trafficking;
4. Alcoholism/alcohol business;
5. Quest for power;
6. Rock music/songs;
7. Pop songs;
8. Computer games of satanic nature-warcraft and witchcraft;
9. Children cartoons;
10. Signs symbols of satan (tattoos);
11. Occult;
12. Pornography-magazines , films;
13. Destructive films, like vampires etcetera
14. Misuse of internet
State of affairs today
Most of the satanic worshippers have been influenced seduced by all or some of the aforesaid methods of satan Satanic followers are increasing in geometrical proportion. They continue to disobey God, parents, rebel against the church. Some are struggling to abandon satanic captivity but they could not do so as satan is more powerful that human. Thus, full scale war is going on led by few chosen servants of God in the spiritual war front. But unfortunately the church is lukewarm. They remain silent spectators busy in materialism, pride, unbelief, compounded by apathy.
Manifestation of Satanism
Satan manifest himself in the life of the people in the following ways: Pride, rebellion, disobedience, deception, self righteousness, violence, division, hatred, heresies, hatred, idolatry, sorcery, anger, selfish ambitions, unbelief, fear, suicidal tendencies, depression, false propaganda, accusation etcetera.
Seduction of our children to God
Our children who are the soft target of Satan are sandwiched between parents, servants of God in the battlefield. To save them from the clutch of satan, the Bible command us to teach our children all the time in season and out of season and lead them to God (Deut 6:1-9); Prov.22:6;1:7; Mt.6:33).
So that they will not depart from the laws of God by escaping the bondage of Satan. They will not love the world nor the things of the world (1John 2:15-18). For the lust of the flesh, lust of eyes, pride of life belongs to the world in which Antichrist reigns by the people and seducing them to continue to live in comfort zones.
The Full Armour of God
Instead of following the world and the things of the world, we are commanded to put on the armour of God. So that Satan will stay defeated in the spiritual battle. The satanic worshippers need to be delivered urgently by using the six points of Spiritual equipments as follows:
1. The Griddle of Truth;
2. The Breastplate of Righteousness;
3. The shoes of the Preparation of the Gospel;
4. The shield of Faith;
5. The Helmet of Salvation;
6. The Sword of the Spirit.
The aforesaid Spiritual equipments is found from the Bible as recorded in Ephesians 6:110-17. If you put in the full amour of God you are sure top win the spiritual battle. But if you neglect them you are sure to be defeated by Satan anytime and anywhere. Hence, watch out and be in battle combat mood always according to the word of God.
Conclusion
Dear beloved servants of God in the land, let us enter the spiritual battle raging in the capital city spreading to all part of the state like a wild fire! Let us defeat our chief enemy- Lucifer with his host of demons and evil spirits all around us through the cross of Christ and his blood already shed for us to redeem us from sin and death. Let us not continue to the doubting Thomas but be strong in the Lord and the power of His might.
Dear children of God in the land, Let us put on the full amour of God. So that we may come out victorious from the satanic attacks in all fronts. Let us become soldiers of Christ and say No to satan and his worshippers. So that we shall overcome Satan and be victorious in Christ. May the all powerful, all knowing and all present God continue to teach us and guide us to victory in the spiritual battle. So that Nagaland may become a land of Christ and not of Satan.
