Do you want to know what satan's plans towards God's children? Read the article above.
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. If they gain that connection with Jesus, our power over
them is broken. So let them go to church, let them have their conservative
lifestyles, but steal their time, so they can't gain that experience in
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 lifestyles. 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
minds with the news 24 hours a day. Invade their driving moments with
billboards.
Flood their mailboxes with junk mail, sweepstakes, mail order
catalogues, and every kind of newsletter and promotional offering free products,
services, and false hopes."
"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." And
when they meet for spiritual fellowship, involve them in gossip and small
talk so that they leave with troubled consciences and unsettled emotion."
"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 was quite a convention in the end. And the evil angels went
eagerly to their assignments causing Christians everywhere to get busy, busy,
busy and rush here and there.
Has the devil been successful at his scheme? You be the JUDGE.
How about this definition of busy:
B - Being
U - Under
S - Satan's
Y - Yoke
