In Joh 6:35 And Jesus said to them, I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes on Me shall never thirst.
Bread of life speaks of Prosperity, Popularity and Power
Prosperity to provide sustenance nourishment, for comfortable life (sufficient to be content with what you have)
Popularity is associated with communion, symbolized unity, friendship, and spiritual nourishment
Power in many different realms. To have some control over maters
Is Satan a god?
Satan is a created being, who has thoughts, feeling, desires and motive therefore he is a person.
Jesus calls Satan in John 12:31 the prince of this world
Prince means ruler
Ruler means archōn ar’-khone– chief (ruler), magistrate, prince, ruler.
In Ephesians 2:2 prince of the power of the air thus also archōn
2 Corinthians 4:4
2Co 4:4 in whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving ones, so that the light of the glorious gospel of Christ (who is the image of God) should not dawn on them.
2Co 4:5 For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake.
Man shall not live by Satan’s bread alone
However when Jesus says, “that man shall not live by bread alone but every Word from the mouth of God.” Mat 4:4 Luke 4:4 Quoting Deu 8:3
The bread Satan offers speaks of the same things but the outcome is different.
Jesus is drawing us to the fact that Satan ruler of this world offers a lesser bread.
We saw earlier that Satan is the god of this world and he can bless people with Power, Prosperity, Popularity and even a comfortable life.
Many worship Satan when they think they are worshiping Jesus
Asked to Test us
Job 1:7
Job 1:7 And Jehovah said to Satan, From where do you come? Then Satan answered Jehovah and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
God stood with Adam when he had sinned in the Garden. He also stood and talked with the serpent in the Garden (Genesis chapter 3). He allowed Satan to stand before Him and ask Him if he could test Job (Job chapter 1 & 2). He permits Satan to accuse the brethren (Revelation 12:10). Satan can make requests to God to test and sift us as he had done with Peter (Luke 22:31). Zechariah 3:1 also states that God can stand where sin is. He waits for us to repent.
Satan is the “adversary” or “accuser.”
