Today when we find that any riot, strike or bundh taking place anywhere in the world; we know very well that someone is instigating the people. In any problem if there is no instigation by any person the flame will die down. There will be peace if there is no trouble maker. Satan aggravates a problem and watches us. Satan gives us a desire and subtly pushes us into the grave. When Pilot asked the people whom should I release, Barabbas or JESUS? High priest, elders instigated the people to ask for the release of Barabbas (Mat 27:20).

       INSTIGATED EVE: Gen3:1 says that serpent as a subtle creature. Serpent enticed her to eat the fruit and brought damnation to Eve. Adam lost his relationship with God. Satan came in the form of a snake and instigated the first couple created by God to fall in sin. Even today every individual in the world is instigated by the devil to commit sin. He that sinneth is of the devil (1John 3:8). satan instigates people to commit sin. The one who destroyed the humanity is the old snake viz the devil. “And the dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the devil, and satan, which deceiveth the whole world, he cast out into earth, and his angles were cast out with him” (Rev 12:9). From the above verse we find that the devil destroys humanity. Serpent should never come in your dream or in person. If the spirit of serpent catches you, then your spiritual life will go down, health vill deteriorate. You will not progress in any field, relationship between the husband and wife will be spoilt, depression will lead to suicide and lustful nature will grip you. Satan will motivate you to commit various kinds of sin and take you to hell. The satan that instigated Adam and Eve to commit sin, today instigates every person to commit sin. God hath delivered us from the powers of darkness to His Kingdom of light. (Col 1:13).

       INSTIGATED DAVID: (II Sam 24:1) David was instigated or rather moved to count the people. God never asked him to count. In the 10th verse we find the heart of David smote him he felt very much for the sin he committed. David hath done a thing which God has not said. Satan instigated him and watches the fun. In the 15th verse we find that the wrath of God plagued the people on that day and 70,000 people died. David, who used to consult God in every matter, gave room for his own mind in this affair. Carnal minded is death, but spiritually minded is life and peace (Rom 8:6). My dear readers have you fallen in carnal thinking? Have you been trapped by the devil. How sad it is that many give room for the devil by marrying unbelievers. Later they lament their mistakes. Never believe that evil world which tries to entice you and ditch you latter. Let us keep ourselves away from the instigated ideas of devil.

       INSTIGATED JUDAS: Luke 22:3 says that satan entered into Judas. What happened after that? Satan instigated Judas to betray JESUS. Judas went to the high priest and consented to betray JESUS. They gave him 30 pieces of silver. “The lust of money is the root of all evil” (I Tim 6:10). Judas felt sad after he betrayed JESUS. He cried that I have betrayed an innocent blood. Judas threw the 30 pieces of silver in the temple. He hanged himself and his bowels gushed out. Judas could not enjoy the 30 pieces of silver? Can anyone live happily with wealth acquired through unrighteous means? “Thy money perish with thee” (Acts 8:20). If satan could entice Judas who amass wealth through bribes but that money will not last long. Are you going to lose heaven for the sake of money? Let us flee from the instigation of the devil in not getting lured by the desires of money.

My dear readers who ever instigates you let us kneel down and look to JESUS. For our dear Lord JESUS CHRIST will deliver us from temptation and deliver us from all evil. 

Amen.
