Narcissists are Controlled by the Evil One

Narcissists are not aware of how they hurt others because they have been trained by demons that what they are doing is good.

They think their rudeness and demeaning actions are justified even if they cannot verbalize why they do what they are doing. They even deny the way they are because the father of lies is their father.

When we understand where the personal attacks are coming from and that is not about us at all we can feel sorry for those who are under the spell of the devil.

1 John 5:18-20 "…18 We know that anyone born of God does not keep on sinning; the One who was born of God protects him, and the evil one cannot touch him. 19 We know that we are of God, and that the whole world is under the power of the evil one. 20 And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true—in His Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.…"

Those of us who love the Lord with all our hearts cannot understand why someone would enjoy battering emotionally and spiritually another human being. We can only know who is the author of it and his purpose is to cause frustration in us so that we react giving the narcissist an excuse for their continual attempts at derailling our walk with Christ.

Remember Christ lives in us and no one can overpower Him or us.

Luke 4:6

"I will give You authority over all these kingdoms and all their glory," he said. "For it has been relinquished to me, and I can give it to anyone I wish."

John 12:31

"Now judgment is upon this world; now the prince of this world will be cast out."

John 17:15

"I am not asking that You take them out of the world, but that You keep them from the evil one."

Everything the devil throws at us is thwarted by Jesus Christ Who lives in us and everything we encounter brings strength and growth in us.

James 1:2-18 "2 Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds,

3 for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.

4 And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.

6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.

7 For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord;

8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

9 Let the lowly brother boast in his exaltation,

10 and the rich in his humiliation, because like a flower of the grass he will pass away.

11 For the sun rises with its scorching heat and withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beauty perishes. So also will the rich man fade away in the midst of his pursuits.

12 Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.

13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one.

14 But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire.

15 Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death.

16 Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers.

17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.

18 Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures."

We do not have to fear the attacks of the devil because Christ has our backs every day and all day long.
