Thursday, September 5

The Devil who was misleading them was hurled into the lake of fire and sulfur.—Rev. 20:10.

 

The book of Revelation describes “a great fiery-colored dragon.” (Rev. 12:3) This dragon fights against Jesus and his angels. (Rev. 12:7-9) It attacks God’s people, and it gives power to the political beasts. (Rev. 12:17; 13:4) Who is this dragon? It is “the original serpent, the one called Devil and Satan.” (Rev. 12:9; 20:2) He is the one behind all the other enemies of Jehovah. What happens to the dragon? Revelation 20:1-3explains that an angel will hurl Satan into an abyss, which represents a prisonlike confinement. During that confinement, Satan will “not mislead the nations anymore until the 1,000 years [have] ended.” Finally, Satan and his demons will be destroyed once and for all, represented by their being hurled into “the lake of fire and sulfur.” Just imagine a world without Satan and his demons. What a wonderful time that will be! w22.05 14 ¶19-20

How many angels are required to catch hold of satan and throw him into the abyss .....1

 

Just 1.  

 

So when we think on this... We can reduce our anxieties and fears regarding this satanic world.

Think of the powerful effect of Satan no longer being in existence, as well as the world that he built being completely gone.

 

We will finally be completely free of his influence, and will have the right to live on this earth, and be able to stand before Jehovah on our own merits as perfect children.

Sounds like a nice deal to me; all of it a free gift, undeserved.
