ANSWER

For every blessing Satan has a counterfeit: "Whenever and wherever the Lord works in giving a genuine blessing, a counterfeit is also revealed, in order to make of none effect the true work God."  Selecte Messages; book 1, page 142.

Experience of those who rejected light given in1844:  I saw them look up to the throne, and pray, "Father, give us Thy Spirit."  Satan wouid then breathe upon them an unholy influence; in it there was light and much power, but no sweet love, joy, and to draw back and deceive God's children."----Early Writings, page 56.
