This is a story I recently
received:
Satan called a worldwide convention.
In his opening address to his evil angels, he said, "We can't keep the
Christians from going to church. We can't keep them from reading their Bibles
and knowing the truth. We can't even keep them from forming an intimate,
abiding relationship experience in Christ. BUT, if they gain that connection
with Jesus, our power over them is broken. So let them go to their churches,
let them have their conservative life-styles; BUT steal their time, so they
can't gain that relationship with Jesus Christ. This is what I want you to do,
angels. Distract them from gaining hold of their savior and maintaining that
vital connection throughout their day!" "How shall we do this?"
shouted his angels. "Keep them busy in the nonessentials of life and
invent innumerable schemes to occupy their minds," he answered.
"Tempt them to spend, spend, spend, and borrow, borrow, borrow. Persuade
the wives to go to work for long hours and the husbands to work 6-7 days a
week, 10-12 hours a day, so they can afford their empty life-styles. Keep them
from spending time with their children. As their family fragments, soon, their
home will offer no escape from the pressures of work!"
"Over-stimulate their minds so that they cannot hear that still, small
voice. Entice them to play the radio or cassette player whenever they drive; To
keep the TV, VCR, CDs and their PCs going constantly in their homes. And see to
it that every store and restaurant in the world plays non-biblical music
constantly. This will jam their minds and break that union with Christ."
"Fill the coffee table with magazines and newspapers. Pound their mind
with the news 24 hours a day. Invade their driving moments with billboards.
Flood their mailboxes with junk mail, mail order catalogs, sweepstakes and
services, every kind of newsletter and promotional offering free products, and
false hopes. Keep skinny, beautiful models on the magazines so the husbands
will believe that external beauty is what's important, and they'll become
dissatisfied with their wives. HA! That will fragment these families
quickly!" "Even in their recreation, let them be excessive. Have them
return from their recreation exhausted, disquieted, and unprepared for the
coming week. Don't let them go out in nature to reflect on God's wonders. Send
them to amusement parks, sporting events, concerts and movies instead. Keep
them busy, busy, busy. And when they meet for spiritual fellowship, involve
them in gossip and small talk so that they leave with troubled consciences and
unsettled emotion." "Go ahead, let them be involved in soul winning.
But crowd their lives with so many good causes they have no time to seek power
from Christ. Soon they will be working in their own strength, sacrificing their
health and family for the good of the cause. IT WILL WORK! IT WILL WORK!"
It was quite a convention. And the evil angels went eagerly to their
assignments causing Christians everywhere to get busy, busy, busy and to rush
here and there. I guess the question is: Has the devil been successful at his
scheme? You be the judge. Friends, this message was sent to me by someone who
cares. Please take heed of the message it brings: B - Being U - Under S -
Satan's Y - Yoke Are you BUSY? Please read and heed this, and pass it on
*****The following should be printed in every
newspaper around the world. It says it "all" about this world we live
in*****
Dear God, Why didn't you save the school
children in Littleton, Colorado? And now a six year old in Mt Morris, Michigan.
