PRIDE— the root of all sin, and the antithesis to God holy:
his proverbial ENEMY.
(it will not be contained/ruled)
_______________
We were born into sin, the scripture states— we are all wicked and evil without the redemption of God, and from the womb. (Marcy B.)
Psalm 51: 5
“Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity,
And in sin my mother conceived me.”
Psalm 58:3
“The wicked are estranged from the womb;
They go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies.”
Romans 5:12
“Wherefore, as by one man— sin entered into the world— and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.”
The iniquity we were brought forth in is pride; and the sin, or transgressing of God and his nature— is pride— and pride brings death.
It’s satan’s nature adhered to: self preservation, self exaltation, self interests, self leadership, and self defense (and much more)— whilst devoid of God being considered, or adhered to.
Definition of Worship, according to Strong’s, and then the dictionary:
Hebrew: שׁחה – Worship
Transliteration: shâchâh
Pronunciation: shaw-khaw'
Definition: A primitive root; to prostrate (especially reflexively in homage to royalty or God): - bow (self down, crouch), fall down ({flat}) humbly {beseech} do/make obeisance, do reverence, make to stoop worship.
KJV Usage: worship (99x), bow (31x), bow down (18x), obeisance (9x), reverence (5x), fall down (3x), themselves stoop (1x), crouch (1x).
Dictionary definition of Worship— adoration, reverence, homage and ceremonial actions toward a deity; honoring someone’s merit, root definition— Old English weorthscipe ‘worthiness, acknowledgment of worth.’
One cannot fundamentally BOW, and be PUFFED UP at the same time: it’s always humility or pride at the heart— at the root of what is set up in man.
And one cannot worship God if they are adoring, reverencing, paying homage toward themselves— as Most Important one to make all decisions and to think upon, as having one’s self interests Most High in importance within their lives; one who thinks upon their own worth, and acknowledges their own worth (positive or negative), all the time: one focused on their own life here.
And Worth defined is— value or consideration, and as deserving or not, and merit; Merit being— particularly good or deserving reward.
Do we consider our own lives most of the day, or God’s life and others?
Do we believe we deserve good treatment or things?
Do we believe we are generally good, or deserving of rewarding self?
Because answers to all of those questions
ought to be a big fat NO!
God said to make ‘him’ Most Highly regarded one in our lives, and days: choose this day if you’ll serve him, or self.
We deserve nothing— we are sinners from the beginning of our lives— we have fallen short of the glory of God, and have had a guilty sentence upon us— till we take God seriously in our salvation he has gifted to us: which is to rejoin him in our lives, and become one with him through repentance, by his gracious person— and have faith, or fidelity in our relationship with him.
And repentance means to— turn and peel rubber the other direction from offending him— and make up with him, in reconciliations.
We are not good— scripture says, only ONE is good— and he is God.
A child of God BOWS DOWN PROSTRATING THEMSELVES TO GOD, relinquishing all honor, reverence, acknowledgment of worth— TO HIM, adoring and giving ceremonial holy homage to him, as the DEITY OF HONOR (not man, not self), and honoring GOD’S MERIT— not man’s.
Definition Deity— the nature of the Divine, God.
Definition Merit— the quality of being particularly good or worthy, especially so as to deserve praise or reward; a grade of ‘above average,’ deserve or be worthy of; root definition— ‘deserved reward or punishment’: via Old French from Latin meritum ‘due reward’, from mereri ‘earn, deserve’.
There is only ONE GOD, and he is the only one with pure divine nature— and the worthiness, praise, reward— one being graded above average, deserving an earned reward— IS GOD HOLY!
Definition ‘consider,’ as worth and worship both speak of consideration of someone— to think carefully about before making a decision, regard, believe and think attentively; root definition— from Latin considerare ‘examine’, perhaps based on sidus, sider- ‘star’.
When we are ‘the star,’ and ‘examining’ ourselves all the time, inside our hearts and minds (our souls), we are exalting ourselves into the highest and most ‘considered’ role in our lives, consistently!
This is the role of ‘satan,’ or -El Satan, ‘the satan;’ one who is operating as one: the enemy of God.
The enemy of God (a rebellious satan child) will regard, consider, worship in their time and focus, as they carefully think and be-living (believes) attentively upon SELF; devoid of considerations to God holy, examining God holy, and making God holy the ‘star’ (or light) of their lives: a satanic minded/souled person— will uphold the satanic kingdom, within.
This person will function with satan’s attributes of self worth, self interests, self defense, self exaltation —with in the thoughts, focus and time —worshiping all things related to dwelling upon self preservation and exaltation (comforts and care, first and foremost); this was satan’s transgression, and his fall.
We are SUPPOSED TO learn from it, and NOT repeat this pattern— but BREAK IT INSTEAD: kill the fallen nature, the carnal nature.
Crucify it!
_______________
Definition Pride, according to Strong’s, and then the dictionary: arrogance, excellency, pomp, majesty of self: swollen or puffed up— grandeur, haughty, height/highness/loftiness— to strut like a lion.
Dictionary definition of Pride— a feeling of deep pleasure or satisfaction derived from one's own achievements, the achievements of those with whom one is closely associated, or from qualities or possessions that are widely admired, conscious of ‘one’s own dignity,’ the quality of having an excessively high opinion of oneself or one's importance, the best state of something— the prime; root definition— late Old English prȳde ‘excessive self-esteem.’
When we put ourselves on the FRONT BURNER of what is taking place in our hearts/souls all day long, every day (us on the topic of importance, think of self, our own life, what we need, want, don’t like, like, can’t stand, etc)...
when we are thinking on our own achievements (fulfilled, or unfulfilled achievements/goals/successes or losses), the qualities of our person (positive or negative), our possessions in this life (or lack thereof) and we admire them (or the ones we want and desire in our minds)...
when we consider our own dignity —or worthy of honor or respect— honorable rank or position (root definition— WORTHY), and have an excessively attentive mindset and high opinion of our own lives, as ultra important and worth giving our time, focus and consideration to…
We have become the PRIME, or NUMBER ONE HONCHO (boss/chief/prince) in our OWN LIVES— and we have now entered ‘excessive self esteem,’ which means— raised into the most relevant position within, and without— unto others.
We are now living in PRIDE —not humility, sacrifice,
obedience to God, nor his nature, gifts of HIS Spirit—
but the gifts of satan’s spirit and nature.
Pride is, and always will be → the antithesis of God— the enemy of God; Lucifer is the ALTERNATIVE OF GOD HOLY, and his attributes and nature; and we have a free will to choose to be like him— if we want/will to.
Antithesis definition— a person or thing that is the direct opposite of someone or something else, contrast or opposition between two things, ;root definition— late Middle English: from late Latin, from Greek antitithenai ‘set against’, from anti ‘against’ + tithenai ‘to place’.
Definition, Prime— of first importance; main— best possible quality, excellence (note this is one of the definitions of pride in scripture), in mathematics— only divisible by itself (God is the only prime one), a state or time of greatest strength, vigor, or success in a person's life; root definition— ‘FIRST.’
Hebrew: נשׂא נשׂיא – Prince
Transliteration: nâώîy' nâώi'
Pronunciation: {naw-see'} naw-see'
Definition: From H5375; properly an exalted one, that is— a king or sheik; also a rising mist: - captain, chief, cloud (symbolic in scripture), governor, {prince}, ruler— vapor.
(cloud, vapor— a ‘spirit,’ symbolically in scripture— that exists in the heavens [atmosphere], spirit— a breath.)
Hebrew: אב – Prince
Transliteration: 'âb
Pronunciation: awb
Definition: A primitive word;
father in a literal and immediate, or figurative and remote application: - chief fore-father, principal.
Hebrew: קצין – Prince
Transliteration: qâtsîyn
Pronunciation: kaw-tseen'
Definition: From H7096 in the sense of determining; a magistrate (as deciding) or other leader : - captain, guide, {prince} ruler.
*And these are but just a few of the definitions in the Strong’s of Prince that we can look up.
[Can we see even now why pride, prime and prince— or principle one, number one honcho of— focus, time and worship, as leader— all fit together, and just why we need to be mindful of GOD— and shift ‘self’ to the BACK BURNER of importance and focus??]
Definition in the dictionary of Prince— son of a monarch; root definition— Middle English: via Old French from Latin princeps, princip- ‘first, chief, sovereign’, from primus ‘first’ + capere ‘take’.
When we make ‘self,’ of FIRST IMPORTANCE, GREATEST— in an exalted position, that is— as a king, like a rising mist, as a captain, cloud (spirit), governor, ruler, father (leader) principal one (chief), as the head honcho determining magistrate (judge of all things as deciding one) or any other descriptor of ‘leader of self—’ we walk in PRIDE, and we have become ‘Most High,’ like a ‘satan’ does.
→ A child of the Most High, actual living God— makes GOD, Most High One within their hearts and souls: they seek him with a FULL/WHOLE HEART (which is their soul) —as it is minded upon him, and worships HIM.
*Note: Pride, Prime and Prince— all have PRI and E, in their spellings; quite interesting they are all so very similar in spelling even.

Proverbs 6:16-17
“These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him— A proud look…”
Isaiah 14: 12-14
“How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, you who weakened the nations! (13) For you have said in your heart → “I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregation on the farthest sides of the north; (14) I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.”
1 Timothy 3:6
“Not a novice, lest being puffed up with pride he falls into the same condemnation as the devil.”

The Lust(s) and Pride(s) mentioned in scripture:
1 John 2:16
“For all that is in the world— the lust [longing, especially forbidden desires] of the flesh [skin meat, the body— human nature, carnally minded], and the lust [longing, especially forbidden desires] of the eyes [vision, envy— side-eyed glance of jealousy (perspective)], and the pride of life [braggadocious self confidence, of one’s livelihood, living (which means— way of securing one’s necessities in life— root meaning— way of life and course taken]—is not of the Father— but is of the world [the adorning world].”
________
Can we see that longing, especially for forbidden desires— against what God allows of his person, or his children— the skin meat suit, the body— and its human (dirt) nature of carnality…
The vision perspective of envy, side-eye glances of jealousy (desire), and a braggadocious self confident livelihood (or way in which we secure our necessities in life— the course of actions we take) — IS NOT OF THE FATHER, NOR HIS KINGDOM’S WAY…
But instead is of the adorning world—
and its paths that lead to destruction?!
Adorning— make more attractive and beautiful; root meaning— to ‘add luster and deck out.’
Can we see that the world will DRAW YOU, do to its ability to ADD LUSTER, and DECK THINGS OUT— making sin and evil, more attractive and beautiful to us, to get us to partake in it— as we set about our livelihoods to receive our necessities of lives from the WORLD, instead of God holy??
PRIDE KILLS US— it killed Lucifer first,
and it will kill all those who follow
his paths and ways: seedling satans.

Vanity (pride, narcissism, conceit, egotism, self-importance) continues as mankind’s most prevalent and foundational sin. Man is a creature consumed with pride —as seen in the following passage of Scripture.
Romans 1:18-21
“For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men— who hold [hold down] the truth in unrighteousness [injustices, moral wrongfulness of character and actions (works) —iniquity]; (19) Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God has shown it unto them. (20) For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen— being understood by the things that are made— even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: (21) Because— when they knew God— they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain [foolish, wicked and idolatrous] in their imaginations [discussions, considerations and debating— their reasoning and thoughts], and their foolish [unintelligent, wicked, without understanding] heart [thoughts, feelings, mind— centermost of them] was darkened [obscured, which means— shrouded and masked, covered and overshadowed].”

“Pride is the root of all sin. It percolates every conceivable evil within and throughout society today. No matter the level or the nature of man’s existence or involvement, it is pride that spawns that which corrupts all of man’s originally well-intended efforts. And one needs not be a keen observer to see the truth of this. Even a cursory examination of society today reveals that in all facets of its structure, e.g., politics, business, sports, religion, etc., the ample evidence of pride is apparent on every hand.
Indeed, it was pride that prompted Eve to disobey God’s instruction in the Garden of Eden as she, desiring to “be like God” (Genesis 3:5), took and ate of “the tree of the knowledge of good and evil” in violation of God’s order regarding the matter. She then subsequently involved her husband in the action, which caused their spiritual death. From that time on man has stooped to the sin of pride— an attitude so abysmal and egregious to the Creator— that it occupies the supreme position on His list of most hated sins.”

Satan is a virus upon mankind, and we are ALL STILL INSIDE OF GOD; he is the being outside of creation— and creation is us. Satan was kicked outside of the ‘outsides’ of creation, which is the ‘insides of God.’
We are all still in God, as he has wrapped himself around all of creation— being UNCREATED, himself; Jehovah and LORD, means— the self-existent eternal one; no one else is that.
If we are still inside God, as he has encased this world in a firmament, that he sits outside of, and inside every part of— all at the same time— and he controls and owns it all… “The earth, and the fullness of it is his”… then WE ARE ALL INSIDE OF GOD STILL.
And with all ‘viruses’ (thanks Crystal) —we will be vomited out in the end, with ‘the’ virus that is making God’s insides sick— the father or leader, himself— satan— if we do not get healed by the Great Physician, which is what Christ is talking about when he says— “by his ‘stripes,’ we are healed.”
{Healed in Strong’s, in that verse means— mended and stitched back together— cured, repaired, and made ‘whole’ again.}
Meaning— he pulled out ALL THE STOPS, we have ZERO EXCUSE any longer to continue following ‘the satanic way,’ and leader their of, the PRINCE OF, the PRIME of one’s own leadership, reasoning and actions: a self god, who does not exalt the TRUE and ONLY GOD— The Most High God→ YHVY, the Son —and their Holy Spirit.
This is why the Lukewarm get vomited out in the end— they SWAM IN PRIDE, and would not stop; they were UNCOMMITTED, UNWISE VIRGINS who ‘would not submit to him,’ nor be sanctified and refined into his image again— who started in rebellion from the womb of wickedness— and ended their lifetimes in DISOBEDIENCE, all the same as Adam and Eve began.
We are supposed to come ‘into’ the Second Adam— which is Christ, and become ‘something of a New Creation;’ and we must do that— or we have not truly been saved from estrangement, the devil, his image or his nature— at all.
And REPENTANCE— was not obtained, even though his grace (graciousness) and faith (a measure of it) was released unto all for salvation.
If we WON’T STEP INTO HIS GRACE— revere him, know him, love him for REAL (which is faith, as truth is real reality) —knowing him, relating, worshiping and honoring him for real— he did say, “If you love me, you will obey me (his commands)” —we will not be ‘saved.’
We must worship him in ‘spirit,’ and in truth he said: spirit is from our inner self— honestly and inside for real knowing him, and being known of him— and then in truth— is defined as REALITY.
So, we must honor, reverence, and consider him— INSIDE— for REAL (truth), and we do that by living by the Spirit, and using ‘our spirit,’ to meet God, FOR REAL: and all has been made possible now to do that, as the VEIL (or separations between man and his God) has been torn down— and the bridge, or the mediator between the Father and his children— is Christ Jesus and their Holy Spirit, which has been shed abroad unto humanity.
Which is why we need to live IN HIM, and OUT OF HIM— and in real relationship with God the Father now— returning to him and his image— reverencing, honoring, obeying him— as we ‘consider’ HIM, not ourselves.
If we are Lukewarm, and we get ‘vomited out’ in the end— then we were ‘in,’ until then; that is what this lifetime is for— to determine who you serve ‘this day,’ and for eternity: yourself, or God holy??
I pray we begin to understand— it’s PRIDE, and the failure to HUMBLE ONESELF— that leads to death, estrangement and torment forever; for it is PRIDE— that separates us from God, for it is his ANTITHESIS— his enemy.
And no one stops pride—
but us.
Definition of Humble— having or showing a modest or low estimate of one's own importance, a lower rank, of modest pretension or dimensions, lower dignity or importance; root definition— Middle English: from Old French, from Latin humilis ‘low, lowly’, from humus ‘ground.’
God, and God’s true children— will humble themselves, lower themselves, estimate their importance, rank and dimensions— as below God —and will be subject themselves to him, and his rule and dominion; they will LOWER THEMSELVES TO THE GROUND: prostrate before him, which is to ‘worship’ him.
James 4:10
“Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.”
{Not, ‘we lift ourselves up;’ HE— will lift up those who prostrate themselves LOW. To be ‘lifted up’ into the arms and hands of God— one must have been ‘down low to the ground,’ to begin with.}
Verses that all state ‘we are to be humble,’ OURSELVES:
James 4:10, 1 Peter 5:6, Matthew 23:12, 2 Chronicles 7:14, Proverbs 22:4, Luke 14:11, Romans 12:16, Matthew 18:4, James 4:7, Philippians 2:8, Proverbs 29:23, James 4:6, Jeremiah 44:10, Proverbs 15:43, Isaiah 58:5, Zephaniah 2:3, Proverbs 6:3, 2 Corinthians 11:7, 1 Kings 21:29, Daniel 10:12, Deuteronomy 8:2, 2 Kings 22:19, Ephesians 5:21, Matthew 11:29, Matthew 18:3.

Ezekiel 28
“The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying—
2 Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus (his name means a ‘rock,’ and he is a symbol of the ‘other option,’ the rebellious option to God holy), Thus says the Lord God— Because your heart is lifted up, and you have said— I am a God [the almighty deity], I sit in the seat of [abode, place/position of] God [supreme one, magistrate— judge of all], in the midst of the seas; yet you are a man [ruddy human (humus dirt) being], and not God— though you set your heart [feelings, will, intellect, center of your soul and wisdom] as the heart of God [the supreme magistrate and judge].”
_______________
We ought to HEED THAT WARNING WISELY!
He just said— Tyrus, which means a man who has a foundation ‘alternative’ to God— a rock foundation, as that is the meaning of the name Tyrus..
This type of person has a prideful, lifted up heart (or soul center of them), where their feelings, intellect, reasoning, actions of will and wisdom— have been set HIGHER IN IMPORTANCE and RELEVANCE— than the ‘real’ SUPREME GOD.
One has assumed the ‘role of God’ (or the father role) in their own lives, by acting as the leader of the life they have been gifted, of God— and ‘they’ are seated in the position, within, that God should be seated in— as authority role figure, most supreme.
And God says— You do all this, and yet you are just a created being, a man; a humus dirt being, and not God at all— though you set your heart feelings, will, intellect, center of your soul and wisdom— as head honcho, one to be regarded and considered FIRST, within you— where the heart of God, the supreme magistrate and judge— is to be positioned.
*IF THAT’S NOT THE HEAVIEST WARNING, and pointing out of PRIDE— as the enemy of us (self focus) —then, I don’t know what is?!

Word from the Lord

“Pride is not hidden Janet— Pride us everywhere. The culture of the people has developed the ability to speak about Pride with flags, and announcements that permeate the entire Society— whilst being in the same mindset that they are a humble people, and are without pride.
It is Ludacris— and fundamentally ignorant.
Pride is not as sly and deceptively cunning is what people think, they have become seared to it. They have developed a seared conscience toward Pride.
Pride no longer affects them in the ways that it’s supposed to— in being repulsive to my body; and hardly anyone is actually focused on self-analyzing (which is becoming a disciplined one under me), to see whether or not they are in the most high position —that is made for me.
That is— if one has me as the Most High God position— in their heart, their soul, and their life— to begin with.
Pride is actually touted in the community, and in the culture as something to obtain. You obtain lives under yourselves— incomes under yourselves, properties and possessions unto yourselves; you travel the world to make our own memories to keep for yourselves— and yet fundamentally expect that you have been returning to the image of God, coming under repentance and being submitted to me and as the leader of you, in your lives— and it's completely ignorant and foolish.
You can criticize others, and judge them— whilst placing yourself in an elevated position— and become clueless to the fact that you are doing it.
Your intellect has been raised to a standard within you where you believe you understand the truth, and what is right and what is wrong in your own eyes. But most do not actually weigh that according to scripture, nor according to what Christ's image and demonstration was, as he exemplified what the truth is— and what is right and wrong concerning morals, and judgment.
I came not into the world to judge man— for all men have already fallen short of the glory of God, and are sinners; I came into this world to reconcile sinners (offenders of me) unto myself; which means— I expect them to be repentant, and turn 180° from the behavior that is not becoming of the Lord God holy, in their lives— If they are going to be a child of mine, and be fathered in my way.
If one is going to fundamentally determine what is right and wrong in their own lives —then they have remained as satan in their own lives; they have remained the leader of themselves— based on the center of their souls and hearts— which is based upon the reasonings and the intellect of their own person.
They do not throw down the thoughts inside of them, nor bring them ‘captive to me,’ (which means— catch them, and drag them to my presence to be dealt with) —which would make me the leader within them.
They are allowing their own, undisciplined thoughts to rule within them, not taking things into submission of what God Lives his person like, nor even by God's lead within them — or at the helm of this relationship.
I speak to the humans of the Earth all the time, encouraging them with gentle words to turn from their wicked ways, and reunite with me— be reformed back into my image, so that you can all come home to me.
But as I said in scripture— the path is narrow and tight, and few there will be who actually find that path, or desire to ‘walk it,’ which is under discipline of persons.
And when I said to ‘follow me—’ I meant to get reformed back into my image, and fall under the reproof and correction of God, as I mold and reform you.
Do you want to be ‘a disciplined one’ under me??
Because the disciplined one under me —is a disciple; and I did say go and make disciples of the nations —not those who profess one thing with their lips, but are far from living the truth of reality, in their hearts.
The prideful do not make it in the end, as pride comes from Satan— and is from the lower realm, which means— lower kingdom.
Pride is not in my kingdom whatsoever, and no one will come into my kingdom with pride. Pride must be relinquished from within— from those who hold self pride in an exalted position within themselves.
I did not create robots, and I will not do this for man. Man will decide to either be a disciplined one under me, and follow me, as they pick up their own cross —which is crucifixion to their selfish nature— or they will not. But they have free will, and the choice is theirs; they must make it, and they are making it every day of their lives— as they choose whom they are serving— this day.
I do not believe that they fully understand that they are choosing whom they are going to serve for all of eternity, as well— based upon this lifetime, and the choices that they are currently making.
I will continue to bring up the topic of Pride, until people understand that it is pervasive in their hearts, and in their lives— and I'm talking about the people in the ‘church.’
It's clear that pride is pervasive in the unsanctified culture, but it is pervasive in the actual Body of Christ, as well— which has been leaving my body, and my church— sick.
If one cannot get off the pedestal, and lower themselves down and prostrate themselves in life, submitting to me— then they are not in a position of worshiping me whatsoever. Because the definition of worship is to prostrate yourself down to the ground— in a humble position before me.
Walking in Pride is standing upright, facing me head on— and refusing to bow to me— refusing to submit yourself to any authority figure other than yourselves— and to feed the flesh continuously with what it is screaming for, like the three year old child that it is— spiritually speaking: and that is to remain in REBELLION to me.
Many will be led into Hell, into estrangement forever— because they wouldn't control the immature spirit within them— to be raised into the new creation under Christ, nor come under obedience to Christ, and return to my image once again: the image of the Father.
I did not throw pride down in satan, who is Lucifer; who is now the nameless one that goes by the title— satan, El satan.
And this title adjusts to, and will fit any other person who
walks his ways— ‘a satan.’
He had Free Will choice to determine whether he was going to lead himself, or whether he was going to come under obedience and reverence to me; he chose the previous— and to lead himself in all ways that he believed was right in his own eyes.
So those who will follow his lead in this way— will be estranged from me as well forever; for they have chosen this, of their free will.
This is why the lukewarm will not make it; because they could not, or would not commit; they wanted the world and God at the same time, and they did not want to commit to just me, nor be reformed into my likeness once again.
So they will be vomited out of me in the end— along with the original El satan himself.
Janet I'd like you to define ‘satan’ now, for everyone to understand this— as it is a title that anyone can assume the role of.”
—The LORD, Jehovah—
the self-existent eternal one

Satan— The Hebrew term śāṭān (Hebrew: שָׂטָן) is a generic noun meaning "accuser" or "adversary", and is derived from a verb meaning primarily "to obstruct, oppose".
According to Strong’s definitions— Opponent adversary, arch enemy of good and God, withstander (one who defies God, and his will), a devil (one who does evil— D (doer) of EVIL = devil),
El Satan— ‘The satan;’ it is a title to anyone who will hold it.
Satan will walk judging others, as an accuser of— right and wrong, good and bad— and will stand in opposition to living godly, with God, or by God— in alignment with God, joined as one.
One who walks as a ‘satan,’ will be supportive in their lives in ‘opposing God;’ they will do what they want to do, regardless, and without considering God— what he wants, commands or wills: selfishness.
It will not be— “What did, or would Jesus do in this situation—” but instead— one will decipher for themselves— without regard to asking him, or seeking his way in scripture, what is right or best.
Why do we think he says— “crush satan under YOUR FEET?”
(your ‘steps,’ if you will…)
Because ‘we’ have to come into agreement with God, to DITCH and KILL THE CARNAL NATURE, of our own lives— and he will STOMP OUT SATAN from our very own lives— as we UNALIGN with his ‘pride’ of the Flesh, Life, and Eye.
Romans 16:20
“And the God of peace [to join (as one), prosperity— meaning, quietness, rest and set at one, again ] shall bruise [crush] satan under your feet shortly. The grace [graciousness and worthiness] of our Lord [supreme controller and master] Jesus [Jehoshua] Christ [the anointed (oily) one] be with you [accompany you, be joined to you, occupy position in between, participate, and transfer or sequence you]. Amen.”

I jest, or kid you not folks— ‘with’ (and most assume they know what all words already mean, and don’t look them up in Strong’s) means— accompany you, be joined to you, occupy position between (mediator/bridge) in you, participate with you, transfer and sequence you.
And sequence you, via transference, means— put you in a particular order; and the root definition is— late Middle English (in sequence (sense 4 of the noun)): from late Latin sequentia, from Latin sequent- ‘following’, from the verb sequi ‘follow’.
And transfer means— move from one place to another, redirect, copy from one to another, moving someone from one place to another; and the root definition is— late Middle English (as a verb): from French transférer or Latin transferre, from trans- ‘across’ + ferre ‘to bear’. The earliest use of the noun (late 17th century) was as a legal term in the sense ‘conveyance of property’. (ownership)
It is transference, which means— the action of transferring something, from one person or place, to another.
I don’t believe it’s ‘coincidence’ that TO FOLLOW, A CROSS TO BEAR, and OWNERSHIP OF PROPERTY— are in all those definitions.

1 Timothy 4:1-2
“Now the Spirit speaks expressly— that in the latter times— some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; 2 speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron.”
Mark 7:20-23
“And he said— That which comes out of the man, THAT— defiles the man. 21 For from within— out of the hearts of men, proceed → evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, 22 thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: 23 All these evil things come from within— and defile the man.”

(Ezekiel 28 continued)
3 “Behold— you are wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from you (do you sense some sarcasm here?): 4 with your wisdom and with your understanding you have gotten yourself riches, and have gotten (or gained) gold and silver into your treasures:
5 By your great wisdom, and by your traffick (trafficking) you have increased your riches, and your heart is lifted up because of your riches: (which would be— your increase, what you have, literal in the physical, or symbolic in the thoughts, mind and beliefs that are increased of one’s self, and focus.)
6 Therefore —thus says the Lord God; Because you have set your heart as the heart of God; 7 Behold— I will bring strangers upon you, the terrible of the nations (and they are coming to America): and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, and they shall defile your brightness.
{This is a humbling, coming to pompous, uplifted, pride filled nation of people— who believe they should be blessed and prosper, in their perverse living— based in— the pride of heart, pride of eyes, pride of flesh —and life itself.}
8 They shall bring you down to the pit, and you shall die the deaths of those that are slain in the midst of the seas.
{Those would be people dumped overboard, as they die on ships— no burial, no pomp and stance— dumped into the depths; for this is what comes to the pride filled humans.}
9 Will you yet say before him who slays you— I am God [the supreme one, the high judge of all things]?
But you shall be a man— and no God, in the hand of him who slays you.
{God is making a point that when he sends an enemy against the prideful, to abase them, and drop them low— one will not be raised up, thinking themselves ANYTHING MIGHTY— in the face of death.}
10 You shall die the deaths of the uncircumcised (the NOT set apart ones, the NOT covenanted ones)—by the hand of strangers [the profane and adulterous]: for I have spoken it, says the Lord God.
11 Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying—
12 Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him— Thus saith the Lord God; You seal up the sum [measurement and consummation pattern, sown] —full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.
{This is stating someone sowed something, in measure and pattern— their wisdom and beauty (satan did that, found himself smart and gorgeous) —and it should cause them to mourn and lament.}
13 You have been in Eden [the home of Adam]— the garden [fenced in place] of God (sound like satan y’all); every precious stone was your 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 your tabrets and of your pipes —was prepared in you, in the day that you were created.
{If we do not come out of the first Adam, and how he lived— and don’t come into the Second Adam, Christ— we will fall like satan, for we will have followed him, on his path, doing what he does, and will find ourselves where he, the original satan finds himself— in the end.
We too, are a ‘created’ being, and a ‘man;’ so, if we find ourselves like satan, like Tyrus, standing erect upon the false foundation rock— we will find ourselves in the category of REPROBATE, alike.}
14 You are the anointed cherub that covers; and I have set you so: you were upon the holy mountain of God; you have walked up and down in the midst of the stones [building] of fire.
15 You were perfect in your ways from the day that you were created → UNTIL— iniquity [moral evil, perverseness, injustice, unrighteousness and wickedness] was found in you.
{Ought we consider if iniquity is found in us, which is tied to following the paths of unrighteousness— lawless against what God is commanding— disobedience to his person?}
16 By the multitude of your merchandise [what is trafficked in, and peddled about] —they have filled the midst of you with violence [wrongdoing, unjust gains, cruelty, damage, injustices, oppression, and unrighteousness] —and you have sinned [been led astray, bear blame, have fault, do harm, do offend and transgress]: therefore I will cast [throw out, down or away] you —as profane [break one’s word, wedge and play in defilement, pollute, prostitute, slay and wound] —out of the mountain of God [the range, and area of God]: and I will destroy you [cause you to wander, lose yourself, perish, cause not to escape, fail, and be utterly void— with no where to flee] —O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones [building] of fire.
(The building, or construction of God’s domain)
{Ought we consider being cast out too— if we continue in his counsel and ways, unto his destination, on his paths??}
17 Your heart was lifted up [haughty, pompous and prideful] because of your beauty, you have corrupted [ruined and spoiled, rotted] your wisdom [good sense]— by reason of your brightness [splendor and beauty (he was focused on his conceit, self absorption): I will cast you to the ground— I will lay you before kings [royalty], that they may behold [consider] you.
18 You have defiled your sanctuaries [consecrated palace— like temple] by the multitude of your iniquities— by the iniquity of your traffick [what one trades out and peddles abroad]; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of you, it shall devour you— and I will bring you to ashes [bestrewed— scattered] upon the earth, in the sight of all those who behold [consider and discern] you.
19 All they that know you among the people —shall be astonished at you: you shall be a terror [and alarming frightful sight of destruction], and never shall you be anymore.
20 Again the word of the Lord came unto me, saying— 21 Son of man, set your face against Zidon, and prophesy against it, 22 And say— Thus says the Lord God; Behold, I am against you, O Zidon; and I will be glorified [honored] in the midst of you: and they shall know that I am the LORD [self-existent eternal one— Jehovah], when I shall have executed [accomplished] judgments [inflicted a sentence] in her, and shall be sanctified [pronounced and observed, clean and ceremonially moral, dedicated, hallowed, kept holy— wholly] in her.
23 For I will send into her pestilence [destroying plague], and blood [death and bloodshed] into her streets; and the wounded [pierced to death, polluted, profane] shall be judged [cast out] in the midst of her —by the sword upon her on every side [roundabout, encircled, hedged in, compassed about on every side]; and they shall know that I am the LORD [self-existent eternal one— Jehovah].
24 And there shall be no more a pricking [embittered] brier unto the house of Israel, nor any grieving [painfully spoiled, marred] thorn (says pricking— think of the term ‘pricks,’ as in detestable people) of all who are roundabout them— that despised [contemned— treat with contempt, or scorn— looking down on] them; and they shall know that I am the Lord God [Jehovah].
25 Thus says the Lord God; When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the people— among whom they are scattered— and shall be sanctified [pronounced and observed, clean and ceremonially moral, dedicated, hallowed, kept holy— wholly] in them— in the sight of the heathen [foreign nations of people]— THEN they shall dwell [sit down, marry, remain and settle] in their land —that I have given to my servant [bondman] Jacob.
26 And they shall dwell [sit down, marry, remain and settle] safely therein, and shall build houses [homes and families], and plant vineyards [gardens]; yea, they shall dwell with confidence [refuge, security and surety] —when I have executed [applied and carried out] judgments [a sentence inflicted] —upon all those who despise them, round about them; and they shall know that I am the Lord their God.”

God plans to do ALL THAT, to those who will live in rebellion to him, and to his kingdom and rule; to anyone who walks ‘as’ satan, with satan as their leader and ‘god.’
We ought to heed that; and remember that Tyrus, the representation of a ‘man’ who walked as satan walks— and was in a chapter dedicated to Lucifer and how his conduct was/is, —and anyone following under him, will get the same.
It speaks of the house of Jacob, spiritual Israel— the children of the Lord, being vindicated— AFTER THE REBELLIOUS, who follow pridefully after satan— are WRECKED IN JUDGEMENT.
We are in a period of the judgment of God, right now— and we have hardly even begun.
PRIDE— leads to judgment; and judgment of a guilty sentence of being a ‘sinner,’ as satan is— leads to estrangement and death; and FEAR goes with pride— because we are ‘afraid,’ or honoring/revering another person or thing as more powerful— we sin in pride; we are afraid to lose something.
{Example: Not considering the Great Physician first, concerning sickness or infinity, and running to doctors and men— afraid to suffer in the body, or die bodily— flesh exaltation and FEAR— verses, the Great Physician. Has going home to him become a fearful event?? It’s graduation with no sting of death— life here hurts— crossover, for the child of God— does not. Been there, done that.}
Satan FEARED when he freaked out to God about him making man— and placing man in a mindful position of God’s soul— above him; he was afraid of losing his position with God— and he became prideful in rebellion against God because of his greatest fear: so he began to fear/reverence himself.
Fear and pride go hand in hand—
as BOTH are attributes of satan.
2 Timothy 1:7
“For God has not given us the spirit of fear (timidity)— but (a spirit) of power (ability, not helpless/hopelessness— for in Christ we can do all things) and of love (affectionate, benevolent love feasting— charitable) and of a sound mind [discipline and self control].”
Satan, and satans— LOSE THEIR MINDS (becoming undisciplined), and they become reprobate, not ruled over by God any longer— for they have become seared to him, and self minded.
We ought to heed what the Lord has shown us in scripture this day; we ought to HEED and REVERENCE the Lord God— and stop ‘fearing man,’ which is to say— REVERENCING IN HONOR and PREFERENCE, ‘man:’ namely— our own carnal selves.
Definition Sin— habitual offense and its penalty, or need for expiation [atonement— which is AT ONE-MENT, again with God as a couple]; an offender.
And satan— is the OPPOSER, OFFENDER OF GOD and ADVERSARY TO HIM; one who opposes God— will not submit to his leadership or rule: one in PRIDE who refuses to belong to his kingdom, and chooses satan— self leadership, and his kingdom of self leadership— instead.
