It is all pretty until it bites
As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
I have often heard of prayer warriors and spiritual warriors as they seem to brag a great deal, online or in front of pew sitters who wide eyed wonder at such militantism they exhibit in warring against satan. Upon hearing their spew, I always frown as their experience is not my experience. In my walk with Christ, when the devil that walks around like a roaring lion, is a creature that has an exhaustive strength which does not tire. I have noticed that it hits like a tank in attacks and counter attacks. It lays traps which are deadly and destructive.
That entire order of demons seems like it has an endless supply of specialized demons of all sorts to hinder and harm. So I always wonder how these braggarts have any time in this spiritual war to be pontificating in front of people in how tough they are. For me, in this war, I tread most lightly as this darkness is trying to destroy me, using events, people, places, things and me against myself. If I mouthed off like these warriors do, I would get hammered as I have and still do. I do not jump out of my foxhole named Christ, stand there and tell everyone how tough I am, because just like in combat, there are horrid consequences.
So I believe all these warriors are frauds. None of them have ever been hit. They may have had some damage done to them years ago, but they are not like Job in having an avalanche of bad things aimed at them, destroying everything, to make them try and take their own lives, which satan was denied. That is real spiritual warfare, not what these people are trying to tell people they are involved in, because they would be cringing, not boasting.
The reason I bring this subject up, is not the warriors. It is about the demons, in my focal point of experience. This is not about all demons, but about the ones I have been dealing with, which are not of the principality and higher power order.
What I have concluded as of late is that demons are for the most part, one dimensional specialists, like a bullet fired from a gun. Quite deadly and dangerous if you get hit, but they are not that reasoning, by this I mean, they are like a computer command prompt. It does not matter if some human in Christ is neutralizing them, other will move in to the same harm done to them. This comes from them being "eternal", meaning they can not die and except for the Lake of Fire torment, nothing is really out there to injure them, so they without fear, keep coming to destroy the human that is the target.
The demon caste seems to line up on the Angelic order, meaning it does not seem all the time to be a matter of power, but of station, as in feudal blood lines in monarchs. That is why one never hears of "the house divided against itself". You never have a group of demons trying to be like satan ascending to the throne of God, by knocking off satan. It is a caste to what they were created to. demons can from from silly to malevolent, but they are all destructive. Pushing another kid off a sand pile on impulse for fun and the kid gets hurt is just as destructive as hitting another kid over the head with a bat in a rage.
They do seem to pattern though to their specialties. Read the account of satan attempting to attempt Christ. It reveals a great deal of the devil, being Lucifer full of beauty and wisdom, the psychology is there in taking Jesus to the high point where satan lusts to be, to being arrogant in thinking it can outwit Christ by His Own Word, is the operational structure it chooses at it appeals. That is not to say that this liar and murderer is not capable of the most sadistic butchery. It means one never underestimates the resourcefulness of this darkness and how it has preferences.
satan and demons are termed the rulers of this world. That means they are the anti God. God is Life. they are death, decay, destruction which God is not. So it is not so much as princes of this world or rulers, just a temporary allowed function which they operate in, that is expanded to causing eternal death in people.
In all of this understanding, the Lame Cherry is not arrogant nor stupid enough to think I know everything, because I am certain the moment I think I know the limits of something, it will use that against me, to try and destroy me.
In the work that I am in engaged in, in preparing the Way for the return of the Lord, I can feel in this conflict that holese have been blown open like Swiss cheese in this caste and there is an extended skirmish line as things have been removed. That tells me I am a bigger target and to be more careful as that is what experience has taught me, time after time. I never have sought any of this out. I have been endlessly attacked, numerous times almost destroyed and in all of this, I had to learn to swim the hard way or I would not be around. Drowning was not the end as I was going to be beaten into Judas Iscariot type sinning in which there was not redemption of refusing hope, which Job refused to accept.
As I have not read anything of value in this subject, that is why I have placed some insights here from actual experience. This is not to have you think you know it all as this teaching is not the all encompassing solution to your lives. If you light up inside thinking you want to do this, that is you and the devil talking not God. It is much better to keep yourself in Christ, to pray for people you love and to ask God to return to establish Justice than to toil over this warfare as you will want to live the life God gave you, instead of living that life for God's Glory.
That is about all I have to communicate on this narrow view of being carried each moment by Jesus the Christ, my Lord and Savior. I desire His return so I can have His Peace and His Rest, in Jesus Name Amen and Amen.
