«Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty; You corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor; I cast you to the ground.» Ezekiel 28:17
Do you remember how the evil one entered the world? Let’s review it together.
God had created the angels. There was one of them who was called Lucifer. Lucifer means angel of light. He was perfect, beautiful, intelligent, and commanded the angels. They all respected him very much.
But he became vain! He said: “I am so beautiful and intelligent! Why can’t I be a god too? Ah, I’m going to be a god!”
Lucifer began to be jealous of Jesus and wanted to take His place. He began to spread lies about God to the other angels. Some believed him.
Lucifer became Satan, which means deceiver. He could not stay in heaven any longer. He was cast out with his followers, and he decided to destroy the lives of all of God’s children.
Let’s practice!
Satan is evil, but he wants to deceive people into thinking that he is good, and God is evil. He inspires movies about him showing that he is good. Ask your mom to help you choose only good movies that show the goodness and love of Jesus. Pray to Jesus asking for Satan to stay far away from you and your family.
