1 | satan days | Eph 6:13 | Aixen7z4 | 102959 | ||
A good and important question, and I think you are on the right track. Experience seems to tell us that there are some days when everything seems to go right. Then we feel that the Lord is in control. Some days everything seems to go wrong, and it seems that Satan is in control. Scripture seems to tell us that that this “evil day” is not necessarily a whole day and it can be more than one day in a row, a period of time. Thus, in Luke 22, as he faced the cross, Jesus said to the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, “this is your hour, and the power of darkness“. Before that, He had been led into the wilderness for forty days, to be tempted of the devil, and now he had gone into the Garden of Gethsemane. That was an “evil day”. Job had a period of testing, in which Satan had been allowed to have his way with him. That was a dark and “evil day”. There is a sense in which all of these days are evil days. Satan is going about as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. He is free to do that now because this is his “day”. I think you can expect periods of time when Satan will be there to bother you. This is the time in which he is allowed to do that. He can come to you suddenly, and he can stay a while. We have to be prepared to resist him. This is an “evil day”. |

You said "Thus, in Luke 22, as he faced the cross, Jesus said to the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, “this is your hour, and the power of darkness“. Before that, He had been led into the wilderness for forty days, to be tempted of the devil, and now he had gone into the Garden of Gethsemane. That was an “evil day”." ... was His being led nto the wilderness for forty days evil? ... was His being tempted of the devil evil? ... was His being in the Garden evil? ... was the power of darkness refering to it being night ... since it was Jesus who said “this is your hour, and the power of darkness“ ... read the context of the passage. |
