The Faith of DEMONS.

God's Boys will be good boys!

The Scriptures state that the demons believe and tremble. I can just imagine that Judas had just that sort of faith. He knew that Jesus was a miracle worker and it seemed that he tried to speed up the process of Jesus delivering himself by provoking a direct conflict with the authorities. He did not understand the spiritual battle that they were in and died in disgrace and sadness because the story wasn't playing out the way he had planned it. The demons tremble at the power of God, the demons tremble even at the goodness of God, but they can only enter into the wrath of God and the hard providences of God.
I have seen that when we go through grief we are as close to the devil to accuse God of evil. Sometimes we do and sometimes we don't, but Job's response was the godly response that God has good things for us and hard things for us for some reason and we cannot know that.
Let us beware that our faith imitates Jesus faith and not the devil's faith trembling and responding out of fear alone. Come near to Jesus and He will show himself a friend and a lover of your soul.
