Knowing your enemy’s moves is the secret to success on any level of warfare.
It’s why the United States has a Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) that is responsible for gathering intelligence information on our nation’s adversaries.
Opposing governments conduct espionage by sending spies secretly behind enemy lines to gain intelligence information for one reason: knowledge is power!
It’s no different for everyone fighting the good fight of faith.
It is critical that we are intimately acquainted with everything about our enemy.

The reason more Christians do not live victoriously is because they do not know Satan’s strategy.
Here’s the reality—unless you gain knowledge about your enemy, you have no hope of succeeding against him.
The prophet Hosea wrote about it thousands of years ago.

Those words are just as true in the spirit realm as they are in this earthly realm.
The Bible tells us the devil has declared war on each of us.
He has declared war on you.
He is like the cartoon character, Wile E. Coyote who is always plotting and planning and strategizing to devour that innocent Road Runner.
The Bible says that Satan is as a wolf.
And just like Wile E. Coyote, he really does want to devour you.
That is what Paul is teaching us and part of what we are doing in our intelligence gathering—learning about the wiles of the devil—the devices he employs in his assault against us and everything we hold dear.

He is like the cartoon character, Wile E. Coyote who is always plotting and planning and strategizing to devour that innocent Road Runner.
The Bible says that Satan really is a wolf—and one that is extremely wily.
And just like Wile E. Coyote, he really does want to devour you.
That is what Paul is teaching us and part of what we are doing in our intelligence gathering—learning about the wiles of the devil—the devices he employs in his assault against us and everything we hold dear.
Because we are at war, it is essential that we continue our advanced intelligence gathering.
As Paul says in , “lest Satan should take advantage of us.”
If we do not learn about him and gather intelligence information about him, Satan WILL have the upper hand on us.
Paul says we are not to be ignorant of his devices—his tools, his tricks, and his tactics—that he deploys against us.

The good news is—to use a little police jargon—we know his M.O., his modus operandi, his method of operation.
Why?
Because he has been using the only three bullets he has ever had since the dawn of humanity in the Garden of Eden—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life.
And poor, naive Eve never saw it coming.
Like a trained boxer, he sets up his opponent with a jab and then goes for the knockout punch.
First, he attacks through lies…then he attracts through lust.
This is the one-two punch our adversary, the devil uses every time.
He lures us in with lies and then baits the trap knowing the bait we’re most apt to take.
