The Unknown

Genesis 3:1-7:

1.  Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? 2.  And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: 3.  But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. 4.  And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: 5.  For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. 6.  And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat. 7.  And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons. 

When Adam and Eve ate of the forbidden fruit their eyes were opened unto a dimension in the spirit that they never knew existed. It was not that God did not want them to know about that dimension of the spirit, but the spirit of fear entered their lives. This is known as the demonic realm.

In verse 7 of Genesis Chapter 3; Adam and his wife Eve knew that they were naked. Before Adam sinned he and his wife did not know that they were naked, because the presence of God covered their lives completely. The unknown can destroy you so we must be led by the spirit of God at all times.

The unknown is that which is not perceived as sure or safe. Fear is having faith in death. Faith is taking God at his word. You do not fear what you know. Satan can make things look and appear to be good but everything that looks good may not be right.

Sin looks good and can be desirable to make you wise for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Mt 7:13.

When Adam ate of the forbidden fruit he gave his authority over to the devil. He also allowed the darkness to instantly push out the light to rule over him and his seed. When temptation appears know of a surety that you are on the right track.

1^st Corinthians 10:13. There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. 

We as the Saints of God see the signs and symbols of God as well, as the camouflage of the devil. 2^nd Corinthians 2:11. Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

Satan is the ultimate wolf in sheep’s clothing. He hosted a serpent to camouflage in to appear harmless in means to deceive. Spirits need a flesh and blood body to possess. Never take things at face value.

1^st Samuel 16:7. 1Sa 16:7  But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart. 

The unknown will appear so you trust God with all your heart. Proverbs 3:5-6:

5.  Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6.  In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. 

When you trust God with your whole heart you give him permission to work in your life. Remember for everything is not as it seems to be nor appear by the 5 senses.
