Fallen World

Finally, be strong in the LORD and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For  our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Ephesians 6:10-12

News flash in case you did not already know, but God’s kids, Adam and Eve, went bad. They were created by Him and placed in a wonderful garden with perfect climate to enjoy. The crafty serpent slithered in and tempted Eve with forbidden fruit and of course most all of us know the rest of the story. 

Each and every day you battle against good and evil, God and the devil. Many have still taken and take the ‘forbidden fruit ‘ daily and often not realizing they are succumbing to the tricks on the enemy. He hates freedom, he hates true Christian love, he hates marriage between one man and one woman as intended by God, he hates those who follow Jesus. Many have partaken in his ‘forbidden fruit’ offered up and don’t care and some don’t know. 

This fallen world is not our home but while followers of Jesus are alive and walking the face of the Earth we are here on a mission to reflect His glory and to share His love and His hope of eternal life in Heaven. The culture wars against us but you have to be and stand  strong less you fall into the trap of deception he has all around us. Fortify your spirit man daily with a good dose of Bible reading. Perhaps some worship music. Now go and be joyful cause this world is not your final home. 

PRAYER: I hate the lies of Satan and how he has deceived and tricked so many I know. Help me not chime in and be ugly too but to simply pray. Put a guard on my heart, my lips, my fingers that touch keyboards to only communicate things that glorify you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
