This morning while I was reading Genesis chapter 3 "The Fall of Man". I was reading about how God told Adam and Eve, not to eat from the Tree of Knowledge of good and evil. While Eve was in the garden of Eden. Satan came manipulating Eve to eat from the Tree of Knowledge. Eve disobeyed her Father, God and ate from the tree.
Genesis 3-5 " Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the lord God had made. He said to the women, " Did God really say, you must not eat from any tree in the garden? "The women said to the serpent, we may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, but God did say, you must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will surely die." You will not surely die", the serpent said to the women. For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, Knowing good and evil".
When I finished reading this passage, what stood out to me was that Satan told Eve, if you eat from this tree you'll be like God, Knowing all things. God to us is powerful and the ruler of all things Heaven and earth (Genesis 1). Eve thought "well hey, if I get to know all things and rule all things, why not eat from it. that's the same persona of thinking Satan came unto. Satan use to be an angel in Heaven. He orchestrated praise and worship unto God.
Ezekiel 28:13 - Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: THE WORKMANSHIP OF THY TIMBRELS AND OF THY PIPES WAS PREPARED IN THE DAY THAT THOU WAST CREATED.
Isaiah 14:11 "All your pomp has been brought down to the grave, along with the NOISE OF YOUR HARPS"
Satan later thought to himself, "well if i'm orchestra-tor of praise and worship and all of these angels are praising God on my command, why can I be just as powerful like God ".
Isaiah 14 12-14 " How you have fallen from the heaven, o morning star, son of the dawn! you have been cast down to the earth you who once laid low the nations! You said in your heart, i will ascend to the heavens, i will raise my throne above the stars of God, i will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly on the utmost heights of the scared mountain the clouds; i will make myself like the most high".
Satan, Adam, and eve wanted to be like God, they wanted to empower things. Eve and Adam rebelled against their Father's authority, God. Satan, Adam and Eve wanted to be in titled to something greater, knowing all things like God. They rebelled against their Father and ruler God, and did what they wanted to do. That's a rebellion spirit, which is not of God.
God punished them because of their rebellion. Satan was thrown down onto earth, while Adam and Eve was kicked out of the garden of Eden.
"I just want to do what I want to do, That's the phrase we always use when we want to get our way.When we want to be in charge.If our parents tell us we CAN'T do this or DON'T do that, we get easily upset.
Well, Let me tell you something that's very important and only the mature will fully understand,
Exodus 20:12 " Honor your father and mother, so that you may live long in the land the lord your God is giving".
God told us to honor our father and mother, so that we may live a long life. Now I know some of you must be saying, "well thats never fair" or "they don't care how we feel". I understand your perspectives, but its not what we feel or think is right. I had to come to that conclusion fast. Even though my parents were following God, I wasn't. I walked in rebellion towards my parents.
A man named Allister Crowley (1875-1947), was Known as the most evil man on the planet. He came up with a saying "
"Do what tho wilt" A message straight from the pit of Hell.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleister_Crowley
Allister Crowley was a satanic ceremonial magician and occultist. He was in favor with, Bestiality, abortion, orgies, black magic and sorcery. Many singers and rappers follow this man teachings.
There are plenty of songs and demonic artists that promote, "do what tho wilt"
After watching this video you could see the rebellion spirit in action, do what you want to do and trusting in your own heart, rebellion against anything that is opposite to what you want to do, you rather do whatever pleases you, which is also self worship.
The bible says Jeremiah 17:9 "The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. who can understand it" ?
When you want to do what you want to, it is basically saying, you don't want Jesus Christ, who is your Lord and Savior to take control over your life in order to guide you in the right direction.
We need a generation for Jesus Christ and Not a generation of rebels. God can use us as his vessels but only if we let him take control. If you don't start seeking Jesus Christ as your personal savior and realize your life is empty without Him and full of sin; you will have a scary awakening in Hell for eternity. Not realizing that everything you say have a meaning behind it. Saying, " I do what I want to do." "Do what tho wilt," is a rebellion heart, which is of the DEVIL!
Step out of the Crowd, and live a life of obediance to God.
