Satan vs GOD

It is all a big fight for power between God and Satan. Job was first blessed by God and then given the power to Satan who wants in some way put Job down. “7: So went Satan forth from the presence of the LORD, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown.” Job 2. Satan finally talks in the Bible… at least he is mentioned and being part of the main characters. This is when Satan suddenly wants to overtake the power of God and have some himself. He wants to manipulate Job, and is able to make him unhappy…He then starts cursing his own life, comparing it with light and darkness. “2: Oh that my grief were thoroughly weighed, and my calamity laid in the balances together!” Job 6. Satan is one of the many representations of evil, as the serpent is, the darkness, the night and so on. He wants to overtake Job because God has had already too many “pupils” and he is jealous, and is willing to threat God with Job.

As a little girl my grandma once told me the tale of the “devil”. She said that he was one of God’s most loved angels, one of the most honored and loyal one. God loved this angel, he was called Lucifer and was the perfect angel. Lucifer then started to have some ambition for the power of God, to control everything and little by little he started to get some power until he challenged God himself and God had warned him already of his behavior. But he dared to deprave his authority and God had no other option than to send him to hell, where he could be the “god” of his own little evil, dark world. When I heard my grandma telling me this story I was petrified, form the moment you are born you are instilled the fear for the devil, and the whole story saying that this atrocious monster was once a good angel scared me. My conclusion is that you never know what people might end up being, enemies your best friends, best friends your worst enemies. Which leads me to go back to my feeling about judgement, it eventually goes back to you.
