Shopping at Satan's Store

And you shall be as gods.” Genesis 3:5
What are you missing in life that you don’t know you are missing in life? It is the salesman’s job to make you want that item and then to pursue having it. Satan approached a person with everything and made her want more. He created a discontent so that he could sell some phony products. He was going to sell wisdom, but wisdom comes from God, not Satan. He was selling the root of idolatry with the concept that there were gods and not just one God.
We still suffer today from the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life. We are still shopping at Satan’s store. Paul told the Philippians that whether he had much or little, he had learned to be content because he always had Christ. That is the truth that Satan stole from Eve and still tries to steal from us today. With Christ we are heirs of all things good and we need to learn contentment in the promises of God.

Dear Father, Help me to see what I have in Christ and be content. Amen
