God suppresses thoughts of theomachy from the enemy (St. Philotheos of Sinai)

Just as satan wars against God through us, by inciting us to violate God’s commandments and thereby impeding the realization of His will; so does God destroy the sly one’s ruinous plans by assisting us to fulfil His holy will, expressed in His Divine and life-giving commandments. Thus, through human infirmity God suppresses thoughts of theomachy from the enemy.



St. Philotheos of Sinai
