Lesser Always Recognizes Greater. So Who Are You?
Lesser always recognizes/acknowledges greater, but greater never acknowledges that which is lesser. That which is lesser is not a threat to that which is greater. That which is lesser is consumed with the movements of that which is greater, but that which is greater is not consumed at all with the movements of that which is lesser. Jesus never went around trying to figure out what satan was doing. It was always the other way around. Satan only has access to your past, he does not know your future. He is always 100000000 steps behind you unless you let him in to your life... then you are now dancing with him. He is leading. But as long as he doesn't have a way in... he really doesn't know what's next for you. He can see you going in a direction opposite of him... but he doesn't know what God is going to do for you at any moment because he is not connected to God. He doesn't have God's spirit therefore he can not discern the things of God (1 Corinthians 2:10). He has to wait until it happens to see. But he had no fore knowledge of it. He can only go by what he sees. So as he is waiting to see whast Go is about to do... satan will work to present stumbling blocks (Matthew 18:7) so you will trip and stay in a fallen state...no longer reaching for the tree of Life who is Jesus Christ.
The Kingdom of Heaven is greater... and when you reach for greater... you become what you are reaching for. When Jesus walked the earth demons knew who he was and in a passage of scripture in Mark 5:1-20... Jesus gets off a boat and immediately a man with an unclean spirit approaches Jesus. Jesus never had to say a word, and the demon acknowledged who He is in this one way verbal exchange.
Mark 5:7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.
Demons are associated with the devil. And the devil hates anything of God. He despises righteousness and anyone who is walking in it. He despises God's creation. Anyone who embraces hate or any other thing identified in Galatians 5:19-21 has embraced satan's thinking. But even in all of the hate that satan and his demons have... they are lesser and always have to recognize greater because it is greater that has power over that which is lesser. When hate consumes anyone they are pointing out who is greater when they direct their evil tactics (works of the spirit of the antichrist - Ephesians 2:2) towards someone. They are recognizing greater by acknowledging it with their actions as the unclean spirit man did. Hate only recognizes that which is greater...a threat to its existence... and any threat to the spirit of hate is greater than he who hates. But if you do not know you are greater... then you will look to that which is lesser as greater than he who should be in you than he who is in the world. When you don't know whose you are and that greatness is in you... you'll always look to unclean spirits as greater because you need that unclean spirit to affirm you. Now you are consumed with the ways of the unclean spirit. You have surrendered your position in the spirit to something that never had the power to take it. You had to relenquish it. And when your mind embraced it.. you are now a slave to something lesser. You are operating out of position... and now you will grow bitter and soon hate will consume you. Now he who hated you because you were greater now has you on the same team as you hate him because you hate yourself.
