The Kingdom of darkness Satan rules by ignorance.
Satan advantage over Gods people is their lack of knowledge. He feeds off our ignorance. The believers ignorance Satan appetite.
He blinds the minds. Satan greatest power is in what we don't know. The enemy of ignorance is knowledge. That is why we must cast down every thought that exalt itself against the knowledge of God.
Satan attack is to make us doubt the knowledge of God, by preventing us from believing and applying the knowledge. To be ignorant mean to not know a thing. We must take the opportunity to learn the word of God. The word of God turn darkness into light.
Light/knowledge is a threat to the enemy.
In 2 Corinthians 4:4 states that the god (Satan) of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is in the image of God.
Darkness or ignorance makes believers begin to operate in the character trait of Satan when a believer is absent of knowledge that believers becomes blindfolded to truth.
Anytime we become blind to these things we become ignorant not knowing then behaving ignorantly.
When we behave ignorantly then we allow Satan apply our feet in the dark. Yes it is strange how ignorance can lead us to go strange places, doing strange things and entertaining strange people. Even people of darkness.
We are to be light carriers and ministers to those in darkness, but when we're ignorant we can find ourselves offering open invitation to darkness through ignorance. Ignorance can blind our minds so much to where we're calling evil/good or darkness/knowledge or ignorance/bliss.
Satan feeds off our ignorance as nourishment to the kingdom of darkness. When we have knowledge of truth the enemy becomes malnourished when we are aware of his devices.
Ignorance is dangerous.
Proverbs 19:2 nkjv says that, also it is not good for a soul to be without knowledge, and he sins who hastens with his feet.
Proverbs 19:2 NLT says enthusiasm without knowledge is no good; haste makes mistake.
Lack of knowledge/ignorance makes us rush into things, meaning ignorance doesn't produce sound judgement. It's like holding a cup with a whole at the bottom and constantly chasing after spills over and over and ignoring there is a whole at the bottom.
When we have knowledge it produce sound decision to know if there is a whole at the bottom of the cup I shouldn't continue use of that particular cup.
Why did I mention this scenario you may wonder? 💭 Well as I studied the word ignorant, ignorance and ignorantly the base word is ignore.
Ignorant means --lacking knowledge or awareness in general; uneducated or unsophisticated.
Ignore means -- refuse to take notice of or acknowledge; disregard intentionally.
Ignorance means-- lack of knowledge or information.
Ignorantly means-- without knowing about something, especially when this makes you act in a way that is bad or unwise.
The word of God say my people perish or a destroyed due to lack of knowledge Hosea 4:6
This word means ignorance is destruction. Perish means to suffer a spiritual death. Ignorance is death. Therefore if ignorance is death the ruler of ignorance is Satan. Ignorance is sinful, wicked, evil, and filled with darkness. Ignorance equates to being dead, and perishing.
The Hebrew definition of perish means to die, expire, to be finished, to run out, die out, to be lost, lose, stray, and cease. This is the consequence of ignorance.
Ignorance produces dead things.
Knowledge is the source of LIGHT AND LIFE.
Choose life.
