How much knowledge of any existing situation does an evil spirit have?
The Word of God is the only source of knowledge in this area. The Bible teaches us that God knows the thoughts of mankind completely. First Chronicles 28:9 says, ... the Lord searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts.
In many scriptures we are taught that God understands the total thinking capacity of man. I believe that God is the only one with power to completely enter into the innermost being of a person and determine his thought life. The devil might be able to pick up a smattering here or there, and even humans sometimes pick up a thought from another person by E.S.P. (extrasensory perception). However, a consistent survey of the Bible proves that only God fully knows the thought life of a human being. Satan functions on obtainable knowledge and upon prophecies that he has heard.
I believe that we should protect our world of thought. We should have it cleansed by the blood of the Lord Jesus and completely sanctified, for it is out of man's heart and thought life that proceeds either good or evil.
To have total victory in thought and speech is to have victory in the total Christian experience.
A person's mind is his strongest possession in which to either resist the devil or to submit to the great will and purposes of God.
The devil is limited in his knowledge, but he is not limited in his lies, deceptions, and frauds. The Bible tells us to try the spirits (1 John 4:1)
If you saw a "mad dog” which was injuring people, would you lay hands on it?
If it were my animal and I wanted to preserve its life, I would pray for it. If it were not mine, I would let the city or the owner take care of it. I've known of many people who have prayed for animals and
God has done a miracle for them. But I think God normally does His miracles for humans.
