No Satan can not read our hearts or minds. He whispers lies and tries to influence us but what he knows is from watching our external actions and words.
How much can a detective learn about a person and what they will probably do in a situation by watching them day and night 24/7?
Can that detective read that person's thoughts or heart? no.
Can that detective make a prediction of what that person might be tempted to sin with? definitely.
Satan and his demons are like stalkers. They are NOT mind readers.
However people do have conversations with them in the spirit realm which many mistaken as being inside their head or in their dreams not realizing the distinction between their own mind and the realm of the spirit.
God's angels also instruct us in His ways and His laws both when we are awake and when we sleep. God sent His Holy Spirit to remind us to love one another, to be just, to feed the hungry, care for the poor and the orphaned, to have compassion upon the grieving widows.
You will find verses about God searching the hearts and minds of His people.
Perhaps Satan searches the hearts and minds of his children? However, I highly doubt it.
Satan is more like a dictator ordering people to believe and act according to HIS wishes and terrorizing and punishing those who do not listen to him. He is like a slave master who beats those enslaved to him. He does not care to search hearts or minds but wishes to twists words and actions to be a perversion of God's will. He is the child abuser, he is the murderer, liar and thief.
However Jesus came to set us free. He broke the chains of sin and guilt that Satan tries to enslave us with. He gave us His Holy Spirit and allows us to pray to God and call Him Abba, Father.
So in the end who cares if Satan can read our thoughts or hearts if both is filled with God's love and His will. If we pray continously, if we strive to always walk with His Holy Spirit and display the fruits thereof?
So let us as children of God show His love in our thoughts, in our hearts, in our actions. Let us remember to show love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness and self control in all that we do today and remember not only to forgive others of their mistakes but to forgive ourselves as well. Let us trust in God and not worry about Satan, because if we stand in God's promises, then nothing that old serpent can do can harm our hearts or souls.
God bless and keep all my brothers and sisters in Christ.
