The word of God says to be wise in order to overcome this world. Devil is the king of this earth and he has the power to destroy God’s people from their faith. He has been working cunningly to bring trouble into believers’ life.
Since the very beginning devil is working in disguise. He never revealed his real identity to the man and he is always tempting God’s children to be separated from their goal.
