How great your works are, O Jehovah! How very deep your thoughts are!—Ps. 92:5.

 

Jehovah resolved the rebellion of Satan and the first humans in a way that must have dumbfounded Satan. Instead of proving to be a liar, Jehovah proved to be truthful by allowing Adam and Eve to have children. And instead of proving to be a failure, Jehovah proved to be victorious. He kept his purpose moving forward by providing an “offspring” who would save obedient descendants of Adam and Eve. (Gen. 3:15; 22:18) Satan must have been stunned by Jehovah’s ransom arrangement! Why? Because it is an arrangement based on unselfish love. (Matt. 20:28; John 3:16) That quality is not present in Satan’s selfish character. So, what will take place because of the ransom arrangement? By the end of the Millennium, perfect, obedient descendants of Adam and Eve will inhabit a paradise earth—just as Jehovah originally purposed. w23.11 6 ¶17

Jehovah’s wisdom is beyond Satan’s comprehension. - Wow, what a principle. Never will change.

How to beat the devil? Unselfish love - as he can't even understand it. Fantastic!

 

There is a good reminder for me too.
