This morning we are concluding the sermon series KNOW YOUR ENEMY. Do you know your enemy? Do you really know your enemy? This morning…I want to talk to you about…SATAN’S SCHEMES! 2 Cor 2:11 reminds us that Satan will try to outwit…or sout smart us…and that we must be aware of his schemes…Eph 6:11…tells us to…11 Put on the full armor of God, so that we can take our stand against the devil’s schemes.
What is a scheme? A scheme is simply a plan or a design. All schemes are not bad, unless of course you are talking about Satan’s schemes!
Satan’s schemes are devious and underhanded. Satan’s schemes are an attempt to overthrow God’s plans and purposes…and ultimately God people!

Do you KNOW YOUR ENEMY? Sometimes I am the enemy! I know that we would prefer to think that Satan and sin are the only enemies we need to worry about, but that is not the whole truth is it? Sometimes…not all the time…but sometimes I am the enemy! Sometimes God is trying to work in my life…and I keep getting in God’s way! It is not Satan…it is not sin…it is me! It my thought processes, it is my worries, my attitudes, my actions…it is me being disobedient!

Do you know your enemy?
+ Did you know that “SIN” is your enemy?
+ Sometimes we get Satan and SIN mixed together!
+ Perhaps some of you will remember a comedian from the 70’s…his name was Flip Wilson. He had a routine that he was well known for. He would say that the devil made me do it!
+ Doesn’t that sound good?
+ The devil made me do it!
+ That allows us to think that we had no control!
+ It wasn’t our fault!
+ We can just blame it on the Devil!
+ Well, the devil may have tempted us…but there is something else in involved!

Do you know your enemy?
You may think that he/she is setting near you…you may think that your enemy stole your boyfriend/girlfriend, money, job, house, car, etc. Is He or she your enemy? I mean really your enemy? Why did Jesus tell us to love our enemy? Perhaps there is more to this whole enemy discussion than what we normally think about. Perhaps there is a human enemy that we should love and a spiritual enemy that we should loathe! Perhaps the church as allowed the world’s thinking to overtake the church’s thinking! Is it really possible to love our enemies? Did Jesus really mean what he said? If he didn’t then what did he mean? If he did, then why are so many people disobeying HIM? Do you know your enemy? What do you do with THE ENEMY AT CHURCH?
