Lucifer's fall is a powerful reminder of the consequences of pride and rebellion against God. The story is often pieced together from various scriptures, as the Bible does not give a single, detailed account. Here are some key passages that help us understand his fall:
"How you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, who laid the nations low! You said in your heart, 'I will ascend to heaven, I will raise my throne above the stars of God; and I will sit on the mount of assembly, in the far north; I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will make myself like the Most High.'" -(WEB) Isaiah 14:12-14 "You were the anointed cherub who covers: and I set you, so that you were on the holy mountain of God; you have walked up and down in the middle of the stones of fire. You were perfect in your ways from the day that you were created, until unrighteousness was found in you... Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty; you have corrupted your wisdom by reason of your splendor..." Ezekiel 28:14-17
From these passages, we learn that Lucifer, once an anointed cherub and the "morning star," fell because of pride. He desired to ascend to heaven and make himself like the Most High. This rebellion against God led to his downfall, transforming him into Satan, the adversary.
Let us pray for those who may be struggling with pride or rebellion, that God may grant them humility and a heart that seeks to obey Him fully.
Dear Lord, we come before You, acknowledging Your sovereignty and holiness. We pray for those who, like Lucifer, may be struggling with pride and rebellion. Help them to see the error of their ways and turn back to You with a humble heart. Grant them the wisdom to understand that true greatness comes from serving You and others, not from exalting ourselves.
We also pray for those who may be influenced by the deceits of Satan. Open their eyes to the truth of Your word, and help them to resist the devil, so that he may flee from them. Strengthen their faith and fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may stand firm in their walk with You.
We ask all these things in the name of Jesus Christ, who humbled Himself and became obedient to death, even the death of the cross. It is in His name that we pray, believing that it is only in Jesus that we have access to God. Amen.

We've been reflecting on Lucifer's fall, haven't we? It's a stark reminder of what happens when we let pride and rebellion take root in our hearts. We see it in the Bible, scattered across different passages, but the message is clear. Lucifer, the morning star, the anointed cherub, let his beauty and wisdom corrupt him. He wanted to be like the Most High, to ascend to heaven and sit above the stars. But God didn't give him that power. Instead, he was cast down, transformed into Satan, the adversary.
We've all seen pride and rebellion in our lives, haven't we? Maybe in ourselves, maybe in others. It's a tough thing to face, but it's important. Let's pray for those struggling with it, that God would give them humility and a heart that seeks to obey Him fully.
