2 Corinthians 11:14 - "And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light." There are so many different areas to discuss the influence and deception of Satan, but I'll mention one area that I personally battle with. God's Word stresses how important prayer is. Satan will try to distract me while I'm in prayer with God. He can and will use anything, especially something that appears to be good or spiritual. 'Oh, it's ok, it's still something about God or a rabbit trail in scripture.' But if that hinders me from praying, then Satan has won that battle. Be ever watchful of this wolf in sheep's clothing, this "angel of light", and roaring lion who is always seeking whom he may devour. - Garrett Longest
