Listen, only the man who believes in the promises written on his heart can believe in truth enough to welcome the serpent of death.
There is nothing more powerful and more threatening to the status quo than a man who believes. Because of this, the enemy will first try to stop the individual from becoming a man. If that fails, the enemy will next try to stop the man from remembering the promises on his heart.
If that fails, the only thing the enemy can do is negotiate terms of peace.. just like a king with 10,000 men opposing another king with 20,000 men.
