Satan's Three Main Temptations Against Humans

Combatting The Enemy's Schemes

Satan the fallen angel has hated humanity since God created Adam and Eve. Since human beings were created in God’s image, he is always looking to destroy humans and to lead many to eternal fire. “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour” (1 Peter 5:8).

Contrary to popular belief, Satan is not dumb as many people think as he is a cunning fallen angel who goes around the world studying people without many people knowing. Satan watches how you move such as your likes and dislikes to see what he can use against you to destroy you. Satan will often use your favorite desires and weaknesses to tempt you into sin and disobeying God.

For instance, if your a man and you love women with a certain body figure or hair, he will draw a woman like that your way similar to Samson and Delilah. If your a woman and you like tall men who make 6 figures for example, Satan will look to draw a demonic man with those qualities towards you. Just like how God can bring people into your life so can satan which is why having discernment and a deep relationship with God is essential.

Satan has been using the same tricks since the beginning of time that has destroyed many people and has caused many people to die in their sins and end up in hell. Satan has primarily used three main temptations that has destroyed many men and women. The three main temptations that Satan uses are money, power and sex.

The first temptation money has caused many people to fall into sin and give up on God. Satan can always send someone your way offering you money but there is a deadly sinful price to getting that money. This includes sinning against God which explains why many porn stars and onlyfans models are rich because they getting rich off sin. Many people desire to have money and be rich which is why it’s a strong temptation that satan uses to destroy people.

For instance, satan might allow someone to send you an offer to be a onlyfans model making over 6 or 7 figures a year but you have to take pictures of your body as part of the offer. Many people unfortunately would accept the offer causing them to engage in the sin of lust, sexual immorality and to cause others to fall into sin.

The second temptation is power as many people love to have power and to be in charge. Power was the main temptation that satan used to try to tempt Jesus Christ after his 40 day fast.

“Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple. And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve” (Matthew 4:5-10).

Satan tired to get Jesus Christ to commit suicide in telling him that God the Father will send his angels to catch him as he is the Son of God. Next, he tried to tempt Jesus Christ by offering him the kingdoms of this world if he worshipped Satan. Satan tried to use giving Jesus Christ more earthly power in having kingdoms and using his divine authority as the Son of God against him.

If Satan can try to tempt Jesus Christ like this, you think he won’t try it with us who are God’s children. For instance, Satan can send a record label producer your way if your an artist. They might offer you 10 million dollar and give you the top position of the company calling all the shots. However, only if you make drill rap making you rap about killing people and robbing innocent victims. Many people unfortunately would accept this deal and fall into sin as God will judge every idle word even in songs (Matthew 12:36-37).

The third temptation which is sex is a powerful and dangerous one since God created us with natural feelings towards the opposite sex. Some people may refuse the money and power but sexual temptation is where many people stumble. Satan watches you in the spiritual realm even when you don’t know it. Sexual temptation destroyed great men in the bible such as King David, Samson and King Solomon.

Since Satan studies humans, he often knows what your attracted to and he will try to use it to find a way to destroy you. For instance, if your a man who loves women with a more curvy figure, he can send a demonic woman your way with that same body figure who might appear nice. She may start off appearing nice like how Delilah did with Samson and then ask she might ask you fornicate with her or to go rob someone for her drawing you into sin.

Satan knows that many women love tall men who they find attractive. Satan can send a tall man your way who might have a high paying job. He appears nice at first until you get drawn into sin. That same man might ask you to fornicate with him or to denounce Jesus Christ to start partying and smoking with him. Now your drawn into sin forsaking God.

Satan is very deceptive as he will send opportunities your way making it look like it’s coming from God but it’s really him. This is one of the reasons why God said to be sober and vigilant to help you stay on the alert. It’s easy for Satan to destroy a person when they are high and drunk as their senses are dull and their in sin.

Don’t underestimate the enemy as he will look to use your desires against you which is why it’s important to fast and pray to weaken the flesh. Stay rooted in the word of God and ask God for stronger discernment.

Satan wants you to get caught in sin because if you die right there, you will end up in a fiery hell in the after life. For instance, if you as a woman fell for Satan’s traps and you went on a date with that man. If you went out with him to party and smoke instead of going to church that night and you accidentally drug overdose, you died in your sins.

Satan wants you get caught in dying in open sin as he wants as many people burning in the Lake of Fire with him. Satan knows how beautiful heaven is as he used to be there as one of God’s angels. Satan’s temptations are temporary and will hurt you while God’s blessings will give you peace and last long-term.

Be on the look out as Satan is seeking to destroy many people as he has led millions of people throughout centuries to hell with these main three temptations. “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you” (James 4:7). God bless.
