Part 1 of 2 Hello Sky Job 14 1 Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble. I believe that there are three forms in which testing come to a person. One form is through Satan the enemy of both God and man. See his job is to seek and devour. He will use any means necessary. 1 Peter 5 8 Be sober, be vigilant because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour . Now does this mean that Satan is the total enemy of man? No, and this brings me to the second form in which testing come to a person. This form is people. People always want to blame Satan for bad behavior, but sometimes it is just people wicked thoughts and their carnal minds that cause trouble for themselves as well as for others. We have a choice whether to do good or evil this is still in man s nature. Sometimes people, without the help of Satan, choose to do evil. This is why the scripture states you will reap what you have sown. This is why the scripture states that a carnal mind is an enmity to God, Romans 8 7 and 1 Corinthians 3 3. The word enmity means the state of feeling of being actively opposed or hostile to someone or something .
