Get Behind Me: When Love Sounds Like Warfare
Episode 341
Monday, 2 March, 2026
What if the most dangerous opposition to your destiny doesn’t come from enemies… but from people who love you? In this episode, Dr. Delisa Rodgers unpacks one of the most misunderstood and intense moments in Scripture — when Jesus turned to Peter and said: “Get thee behind me, Satan.” — Matthew 16:23 (KJV) Why would Jesus call His closest disciple Satan? Was Peter possessed? Rebuked? Rejected? Or was something deeper happening? This episode explores the psychological, spiritual, and warfare dimensions of that confrontation. We examine how suggestion can function as strategy, how fear can masquerade as protection, and how even spiritually mature voices can unintentionally resist divine timing. You will discover: • Why the cross was the real target • How warfare often sounds reasonable • The difference between identity and alignment • Why Jesus corrected sharply but restored fully • How to discern when a voice is speaking from heaven — or from human emotion We also connect this moment to the wilderness temptation in Matthew 4 and explore how consistent spiritual strategies attempt to detour purpose rather than destroy it. This is not about labeling people as devils. It is about recognizing adversarial alignment. If you are navigating leadership, calling, relationships, or moments where obedience costs more than comfort, this episode will sharpen your discernment and strengthen your resolve. Because sometimes “Get behind me” is not rejection. It is repositioning. 🎧 Subscribe to Rooted and Rising for weekly conversations that merge Scripture, psychology, leadership, and spiritual authority. www.delisarodgers.com
