I believe at times, we actually empower Satan, because we humans have a tendency to talk too much. We spend too much time sharing our troubles, either real or imaginary (because we are always worried about things and often the things we worry about never happen). In fact, we keep Satan “in the know” by our own words.

In years past, there was a familiar saying, “Loose lips, sink ships.”

How much better off we would be if we spent the same amount of time either in the Word or in prayer, rather than complaining and worrying. Then instead of empowering Satan, we would become empowered by the Holy Spirit.

Great teaching, Wade.
