Satan’s distorted mimicry Last night I dreamt that the Holy Spirit was showing me through an art gallery. He took me through and showed me first simple works from other religions of the world. First I saw the ying and yang circle with a swirl through the middle, the I saw God’s work beside it, I saw a live picture of a human baby in the uterus in the earliest stage of pregnancy and it was about to split into twins, two babies facing opposite each other made up a circle. Next I saw a transvestite abomination in woman’s dress, makeup and hair and high heels dancing, then beside it God’s creation, a beautiful woman.
I saw depictions of babies being aborted then beside it were then I I saw Old testament animal sacrifices to God and Abraham about to sacrifice his son Isaac and the angel that stopped him.

I saw many more like this, each was Satan’s cheaply mimicking God’s creation as a mocking taunt. Then I woke up.

We must each learn to recognize when something comes from Satan, versus God’s perfect design. Jesus said in;

1 Peter 5:8 Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.

Genesis 3:1-7 (We learn how crafty and deceiving Satan is)

1 Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?” 2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, 3 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 die.’” 4 “You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman. 5 “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” 6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.

Even Jesus was tempted by Satan’s deception and twisting of the truth in Matthew 4

Jesus Is Tested in the Wilderness 1 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted[a] by the devil. 2 After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. 3 The tempter came to him and said, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.” 4 Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’[b]” 5 Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. 6 “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down. For it is written: “‘He will command his angels concerning you,
    and they will lift you up in their hands,
    so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’[c]” 7 Jesus answered him, “It is also written: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’[d]” 8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. 9 “All this I will give you,” he said, “if you will bow down and worship me.” 10 Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’[e]” 11 Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended him.

In Matthew 7:15-20 we are warned; Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them.

If we are unable to discern Satan’s antics from God creation we are told in James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all men liberally and upbraideth not, and it shall be given him.

Romans 2:2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

We must pay careful attention to what we listen to and accept as truth.

John 15:7 But if you remain in me and my words remain in you, you may ask for anything you want, and it will be granted!

Which means that so long as we are constantly in close communion with Jesus and in God’s word, our thoughts will align with his and we will be able to discern The devils deceiving tactics from God’s beautiful, real and pure creations and words.
Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
