By his nature, Satan is incapable of blessing. It requires holiness to bless and he is unholy. |

Satan can't bless anyone,in fact he is the only one as of now that is destined to hell.
The only thing Satan is looking for is your Soul.Who is the father of Lies & Deception?
Satan is. |

just as the word prosperity or treasures are different,so is the word blessings.satan cant bless anyone.why because his ultimate goal is to DESTROY YOU. so if you think satan blesses anyone you walking down the path of destruction in your thinking.to say satan blesses is a ridiculous statement.you may think non believers,or evil doers are blessed because they have money,or looks ,or material possessions,but actually all they have is DEATH. |

No. Satan is an angel. Angels only have the power that God gives them for their particular mission. Satan is in no position to do anything to anyone.

If his blessings will take a person's focus off Christ the devil will bless people beyond their wildest imagination.

evil doers prosper?I think not.for what does it profit a man if he gain the whole world ,but loose his soul?the worlds idea of prosperity,and GODS definition of prosperity are vastly different.one is carnal the other spiritual.the treasures jesus spoke of aren,t physical. |

I once put out a question on yahoo that
said,"Why doesn't satan repent if in the
end he is going to loose?" The answere I
got back was,"Repent, are you crazy!
We have almost won this war"! Satan
has decieved some in believing they
will be rewarded when he rules. |

Satan appears to bless. The evil-doer always seems to prosper, and while they do evil, there are many victims of their evils. Satan is the adversary of Christians and so is out to get rid of Christians, preferably by having them worship him. Satan bribes people with material good, and worldly power, and status. The way to Heaven is narrow and few will make it. |

Often things can be a blessing or a curse. Money can be a blessing, or a curse depending on an individual's relationship with money, and God. God blesses, Satan tries to buy people off. |

I must disagree,jesus spoke about rich people and from what he said it was far from a bledding to be rich.the young man at the sermon on the mount was told to give away everything and join jesus. he didn,t ,he went away sad.jesus also said you cant serve 2 masters,and the needle camel thing.but NO SATAN DOES NOT BLESS. |

---tom2 on 4/14/08 |
only God is in the blessing business.satan comes to kill,steal,and destroy,and is a liar. |
|
---tom2 on 4/14/08 |
Absolutely! Although, Satan's "blessings" are not the type to bring lasting peace, contentment and joy. If by 'blessing', you mean showing favor to some more then others, then YES he certainly does advance some to further his own ends. How many can be blessed with prosperity and stay true to God? Satan loves to make people rich who will then use their wealth and influence on his side. |

---Lily-Anne on 4/10/08 |
Uhm, no, absolutely not. He disguises himself, cleverly, as an angel of light, but he does not bless people. |

---tabit8547 on 4/8/08 |
Yes, I have heard people say, "God has really blessed me". And these were unbelievers. Ofcourse, noone is going to say, "Satan has blessed me". God is good to everybody. He lets the sun rise and go down. God lets the rain come down. All of these wonderful things now, He does do for the unbelievers as well as for the believers. God also allows some people to go on living in perhaps they may be saved. |

BLESS=1.To make Holy or Sacred. 2.ask Gods Favour for. 3.wish good, feel grateful,make happy.4.Praise or Glorify.5.Guard Protect. 6. Make the sign of the cross over.
Now ask yourself the question, if the above question has any relation to the word BLESS.Knowing that he is the Father of Liars.Blessing is a favour granted by God. |

Satan doesn't really bless anyone.He just tries to convince them he does.Resist the devil and he will flee from you. |

1) I totally believe that Satan blesses people, in order to deceive them into thinking that they are doing everything right and they are at peace with God and the world. Of course, in the end is death. I even know Christians who are not in God's will, yet it appears they are being blessed and because they feel they are being blessed, it keeps them doing what they are doing, thinking they are right with God, when in actuality, they are being deceived by Satan to keep them stuck out of God's will, |
|
---Holly4jc on 3/12/08 |
2) thinking they are ok with God, with no need to change. This is one of the tricks Satan uses against people. I especially see this with people in church who have a tendancy to be "self-made" or the kind of people who use manipulation to get what they want. They get what they were after and then turn around and call it a blessing from God and tell you...see...God blessed me for that, when it really was their own efforts that brought the success, not God. Total deceit from the enemy. |

As pocketbooks tighten, God's children will learn to trust in God's perfect provision that only God can give.
Provision will be a miracle. Economic pressure will be turning many back to God. The squeeze is here.
The devil hates the Bible. He's manipulating the world to reject and downgrade its' authority.
Lost souls are going to turn back to the source of all blessings. Many will grow faint but the direct truth of God's Word will draw them back to His blessings.

Supremancy of Jesus Christ over satan.
No mention of satan's defeat can leave out the Cross, "Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them."
The Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the single event of all time that devastated the prince of darkness.
Satan is limited to lying about his prestige and position.

No Blessing, ONLY Cursing!
He's the Father of ALL Lies,
He can give you the things of this World though, BUT, that's FAR from a Blessing! |

For sure!!! I had everything of this world life could offer, I mean everything. They were all distractions from the real deal. My mum has sold her soul to the devil and is one of the most successful and wealthy in women in Australia. Based on personal experience its possible |

Some churches are thriving today. These preachers will get up and tell everyone that God is blessing this church. Ofcourse, NO sane preacher is going to say Satan is blessing this church. But they should because, It would be the truth. God is never going to bless a false preacher and his church. He hates them too much.Satan has his own churches. |

Oh yeah. The NY Gov would probably have something to say about falling off the mountain today. He didn't take the chairlift down, or even take a ride around the horn. Whoops, he probably didn't see that one coming, but that creepy serpent probably did. |

---Cindy on 3/10/08 |
No, he does not bless anyone. After he takes you to the top of the mountain, he'll be more than delighted to throw you off of it.
If he helps take you to the top of the food chain, he'll help you greet others on your fall down from the top.

God's people are not allowed to do as the wicked man does in taking care of their problems. God simply will not allow it. Heaven is just too wonderful of a place to miss. And HELL is a most awful place to go to. I am finding all of this out. IN answering the question. Satan will and does bless his people. Come on, the wicked man has to aquire their money somehow. |
|
---catherine on 3/10/08 |
Leslie: remeber that satan took Jesus to another high mountain and showed all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor and said "All this I will give you if you bow down and worship me." So satan can give away what is his, and he is the prince of this world. |

---Mr._Binky on 3/10/08 |
As others spoke, Satan is a liar and a master of deception. We must understand that God is so pure and His word so sure that even Satan can use it. A book written on satanic cults ("The Challenging Counterfit") addresses this. It is a fact that non-Christians can be rewarded by God's word if they 'believe' what they read will come true. It is God that blesses and heals. Not Satan. |

It seems to me that crooks, and those who do not have Christian or even human consideration for their fellow men prosper more in this world.
But does that mean they are blessed.
But any gain is illusory, and counts as nothing in the long eternal term.

How do you define 'Bless'? |
|
---John1944 on 3/7/08 |
It might appear that Satan blesses those who bow down to him but that is all part of his deceit. Satanists, witches, mediums etc. seem to prosper in this world and others are drawn into the web because of this. When people try to leave Satan's clutches they realise what a curse it all was and their lives are blighted unless they seek Christ. Those who remain with Satan in this life will be cast into Hell with him when this one is over. Some blessing ey!! |
|
---RitaH on 3/7/08 |
Satan blesses his own people. Satan offered Jesus the world if He would bow just once to him. Satan also blesses unsaved preachers. So, not all blessings comes from God. Satan also blesses. God is not the least bit interested in blessing wicked people and or wickedness. |
|
---catherine on 3/7/08 |
Well, Satan can provide for the desires of the flesh and certain worldly "fame and fortune" and certain kinds of "power" for those who promise to follow him. But, in the very end, it will all come back to BITE them, in Hell. Satan hates EVERYONE, even those who serve and follow him. Nice guy, huh? |

---Gordon on 3/7/08 |
GOD IS the ONLY source for blessing. Satan ONLY brings curses. Even if you choose to bless Satan instead of God, Satan will only return curses to you. |
|
---Leslie on 3/6/08 |
No, he does not. That is his greatest deception for those who worship him.
He mocks and laughs at his followers. He will possess them with doubt, blasphemy. He will afflict them rage, cruelty, hate, revenge, bitterness, jealousy, envy, strife, fear, control, pride, lust, defilement, perversion, and every form of bondage.
Satan cannot bless, but he can possess.

Satan will send them delusion, entice them to leave God's covering and protection.
That delusion includes idolatry and whoredoms.
Materialism, false gods and heathen deities.
Harlotry, whoredoms, offering temptations and snares, objects of strong devotion - money. He uses love of position, social standing to tempt.
He afflicts with crude insults and disputes. He uses unclean spirits to vex someone to cut themselves, imprison them with addictions.
Not blessings.

Satan blesses people with the works of the flesh.
Galatians 5:19-21 the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these, Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. |

The wiles of the devil might make it appear that he blesses but only as part of a scheme of deception. |

---Mima on 3/6/08 |
Jesus said satan is a liar and the father of lies. He doesn't bless, but rather curse people with sickness, disease, bitterness, resentment, rebellion, rejection, etc., These are not blessings, but curses. |

---Donna on 3/6/08 |
Technically NO.
For even his blessing is a deeper curse to a pit of torment.
The devil is a liar and anyone who he makes a king will be the king of the tortured. |
