    Defeating Satan’s Plans

    “The peril which threatens our usefulness, and which will prove our ruin, if not seen and overcome, is selfishness-placing a higher estimate upon our plans, our opinions, and our labors, and moving independently of our brethren. ‘Counsel together,’ have been the words repeated by the angel again and again.... Satan may move through one man’s mind to warp things out of their proper channel; he may succeed with two who view things in a similar light; but with several minds enlisted, there is greater safety against his wiles. Every plan will be more liable to be viewed from all sides, every advance will be more carefully studied, so that no enterprise will be so likely to be entered upon which will bring confusion and perplexity, and defeat the work in which we are engaged. In union there is strength: in division there is weakness and defeat.”-Special Testimony, No. 5, page 3.COOD 117.3

    “Companies should be gathered together to call upon God for special help, for heavenly wisdom, that the people of God may know how to plan and devise and execute the work.”-Ibid., No. 2, 19.COOD 117.4
