Isaiah 14:12-15 How
art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut
down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine
heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of
God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the
north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most
High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. Lucifer
was God’s special assistant angel, but he was lifted up with pride. Did you
notice how many times Lucifer used the word “I” in our verses? He thought that
he could do God’s job better than God Himself could. Silly angel. God booted Lucifer
out of heaven and his rebellious followers with him. God will not stand for
rebellion – from Satan or from us. God is holy and pure and righteous. And
Satan is everything that God is not. I am glad to follow God, aren’t you?!
