Good -Life Devotional: REASONS WHY THE DEVIL WANTS TO DISCREDIT THE BIBLE (PART 1) 

By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi 

2 Timothy 3:16

" All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:" 

 Satan seeks to discredit the Bible because it is the Word of God, which reveals truth, salvation, and hope. Below are ten reasons why Satan tries to undermine Scripture, supported by Bible verses:

1. TO PREVENT PEOPLE FROM KNOWING GOD

Satan wants to keep people from understanding the truth about God and His character.

"But if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God." (2 Corinthians 4:3-4)

2. TO UNDERMINE FAITH IN GOD'S WORD

By discrediting the Bible, Satan attempts to erode trust in God's promises.

"Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, 'Did God really say...?'" (Genesis 3:1)

3. TO CONFUSE PEOPLE ABOUT THE TRUTH

Satan thrives in confusion and wants people to doubt the Bible’s reliability.

"For God is not a God of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints." (1 Corinthians 14:33)

4. TO LEAD PEOPLE INTO SIN

By discrediting Scripture, Satan can persuade people to reject God's moral standards.

"Your word I have treasured and stored in my heart, that I may not sin against You." (Psalm 119:11, AMP)

5. TO PREVENT SALVATION

Satan works to keep people from understanding the Bible’s message of salvation through Christ.

"So faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ." (Romans 10:17)

  In our daily prayers we should seek a healthy appetite for God's word and confidence to defend the gospel.

PRAYER: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power to preach the gospel.
