Interpretation: Two Images of Darkness

Original Date: 2/22/09

Amanda, you are so right on with your interpretation. I saw exactly what you saw about the seduction. I will copy Amanda's interpretation:

The first one makes me think of how the things of the world so try to seduce us away from what is TRUE reality - that is, God and intimacy in relationship with Him. We see it all the time in advertising--the world, whether consciously realizing it or not, takes advantage of the God-shaped hole inside of us, longing for wholeness, and as we see in this world, people attempt to fill that emptiness with things that don't satisfy, and only God can truly satisfy!

The world truly tries to make people thing that money, material things, status/position, success, etc. will make you truly content, and seduction would be a good thing to call it as the world/sin/the enemy try to pull us into such. Praise God that He truly can satisfy and that He has overcome the world!

Here is what I think the second one means. If the first one represents the seduction spirit, the second one represents the lust spirit. The first one is the lure saying "Come get me" and the second one is the whisper saying "Let's go get her." I get this because the one eyed snake is also a mouth at the same time. The eye devours the flesh like a mouth would devour food. Or, the eye devours other things of this world.

I believe this is an example of how two spirits will communicate. They are talking to each other to get someone to go after something other than that which is righteous. If their communication is broken then their power is halved. If they become confused, then their mission is disturbed. If they are bound and cast out, then they are completely defeated.

I also learned about a third spirit that can operate in this web. It is the blockade spirit. From what I understand, the blockade spirit is the spirit designed to block the person from seeing any light or hearing the voice of God. It acts as an overseer to try and block any communication outward or inward on this situation. Two demons are attempting a lustful attack, while the third is trying to block any reinforcements.
