Why Satan fought Hard for the body of Moses after death

 

Moses was beloved by the nation of Isreal. He sacrificed a lot for the nation of Isreal, Moses abandoned the life of palace to find a means to rescue the Hebrews from the torture of Egyptians. He encountered God whom he allowed to use him as a vessel to lead his people out from Egypt. Because of this right decision he took, he performed wonders that made the Israelites to stand in awe, such wonders: 

• Turning his rod to snake, which later swallowed up all other snakes, the plague which came upon the Egyptians none touched the isrealites, 
• He parted the red sea, he struck the rock and water gushed out, 
• God used him to make manna to fall from heaven, 
• Helped enacted the Ten Commandments etc. God used him to perform great feats during his life time.

ü God decided to call back his prophet home, the impact was so profound,that Israel mourned him for 30 days.

ü Death symbolizes finality, the end of one’s earthly contributions and sacrifices. The beginning of another Journey, with death comes burial but it was not so for Moses Det 34 vs 6

ü Moses is the only person whom God personally burned. No one knows where he was buried to this day.

Why did God hid the body of Moses? It was because God already knows the plan of the enemy; he knows that Satan will always use any slight loop hole to provoke him.

Devil has seen the enormous feats Moses performed in his life time, if he was buried, he can turn the mind of Israelites to start worshipping his burial site, and build monuments even turn his burial site into demonic shrine. It would have been about the powers of Moses not God, that is pure Idolatory.

The concealment of the tomb sparked an angelic battle in the higher realm. Jude 1 vs 9 But Michael the archangel, when he disputed with the devil and argued about the body of Moses, did not dare pronounce against him a railing judgment but said the “Lord rebuke you”

Micheal the Archangel. Archangel means the angel of higher rank,  The angel is shown in the book of Daniel, Jude and Revelation as a fighter angel who contends against principalities in combat. The rebuke is for the Lord. May the Lord rebuke any demon that wants to fight and snatch your blessings from you Amen.
