NASB | 1 Peter 5:8 Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Peter 5:8 Be sober [well balanced and self-disciplined], be alert and cautious at all times. That enemy of yours, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion [fiercely hungry], seeking someone to devour. |
Bible Question: How can we follow this verse if the Devil cannot be at all places at the same time? Aren't there too many people in the planet for him to prowl around? |
Bible Answer: OF COURSE THERE ARE TOO MANY PEOPLE ON THIS PLANET FOR HIM TO PROWL ON. BUT THEN AGAIN, HE ONLY PROWLS ON THOSE THAT HE KNOWS ARE ON GOD'S SIDE. THERE IS NO NEED FOR HIM TO ATTACK THOSE WHO ARE LIVING SINFUL LIVES, NOT GIVING A SECOND THOUGHT TO GOD. THE DEVIL ATTACKS THOSE WHO ARE COMMITED TO GOD. |
