About this listen

 To understand the meaning of the analogy behind this name of Satan we must go back to the beginning of time in the Garden of Eden where the enemy first appeared in the form of a snake (Genesis 3:1-7). Satan used the physical form of a serpent to lead mankind into sin. From this point on, serpents--snakes--are used in scripture to represent evil. The Apostle Paul makes reference to this in 2 Corinthians 11:3 when he cautions, "But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ." Using the natural example of snakes, there are numerous spiritual parallels that may be drawn to help us gain understanding of the strategies of the enemy. For example, the venom released by poisonous snakes when they attack affects your nerves, your blood, and your heart. Satan also attacks in these three areas. He attacks your nerve--your courage to live for God and fulfill your divine mandate. He attacks the work of the cross, trying to sabotage every benefit of Christ's blood in your life. He also targets your heart, trying to get your focus and affections on things of the world.
