Satan cannot celebrate victory with a child of God. The earlier one knows this the better. The greatest spiritual battle or temptation of a child of God comes after having a wonderful time and experience with God. Yes! It was after the baptism of Jesus in the River Jordan, His glorious experience of open heaven, the Holy Spirit descension, the divine declaration of His Sonship and His forty days and nights fasting in the wilderness that Satan unleashed spiritual attacks on Him. It was after Christ's glorious Gethsemane experience and that great communion service that Judas and the Jews came with swords and clubs to arrest Him.

It was after David's ordination service that he faced the unplanned and unexpected battle with Goliath. It was the killing of Goliath that brought the underserved persecution he faced at the hands of King Saul. It was after his coronation service that the enemies came to destroy him. Victory, favour, promotion and every blessing attract hatred, envy and persecution.

The victory of the children of Israel at the Red Sea was so great that they were overwhelmed with joy. It was after the glorious worship in Exodus 15 in commemorating the victory God gave them that they were faced with the temptation of no water (Exo. 15:22).
