THE BATTLE IS ON

    It's Time to stop talking and start doing! It's time to pray for our country and for our families, but first we must examine our heart and see what is really hidden inside. It's time we come clean before God Almighty and ask forgiveness from everything that we condone in our lives that does not line up with His Word. It's time to take a stand on Who we follow; God or man!
    If we say we follow God, then let's follow God! Not by violent actions, not by shouting and demeaning others, not by destroying lives and property; but by the love we show one toward another as Jesus taught us in John 13:35,"By this shall ALL men know you are my disciples, if you have love one to another." Notice He said ALL MEN, not just other believers, but All men! People are best known by how they act in situations far beyond their control such as our country seems to be displaying lately. It's a shame that grown men and women are acting out in ways that demean others with hate and violence, while shouting out words that once spoken can never be retrieved again.
Life is such a precious gift from God and each moment given was intended to bring joy and good pleasure in His divine plan for each of us to enjoy fully; yet so many are finding their own pleasure in demeaning others with such violence that I wonder, "How long will God allow this to go on?" They have taken such a precious gift God has given; and instead of being grateful for our individuality, they want to change everyone in ways that won't even matter when our lives are ended on earth. God intended for us to live in peace and harmony, being kind and thoughtful of another; enjoying one another and the differences we share. He intended us to help our fellowman when they are down instead of beating them on down until there is no more life left in them by evil words we have spoken and evil deeds. Where is the liberty whereby Jesus set us all free? Or in the heat of our anger, have we forgotten?
    Satan is truly running rampant throughout our world seeking those he may devour, and by the way things are going, he's not having to search hard to find his followers.  It's time we wake up, people! Wake Up! Snap out of this blind stupor satan has placed over our eyes and in our minds with his evil schemes and cunning devices. It's time we get the Word implanted within our mind, so when evil darts are thrown they meet the Word of God head on; Full steam ahead! It's time we know who our real enemies are and deal with them as Godly warriors, armed with the whole armor of God. This madness and violence in our country has to stop; and just as it started with a handful of unguarded minds that satan invaded, it can be stopped with a handful of Christians having their minds on guard with the Whole Armor of God as noted in Ephesians 6:10-18,
"Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put of the breastplate of righteousness and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one; And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watching to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints"
Today is the day we must take a Stand! A Stand for Truth and Justice for All! Being led by Holy Spirit with the full gospel of peace, in love and harmony, respecting others rights to be different from us, peacefully! God created all men equal, even tho we are different in color, race, and creed; and He placed us within our families of origin as it pleased Him! So who are we really fighting against? It's time to Wise up everyone! We are under attack, but not against mankind! Our battle is against satan and his evil schemes that attack the minds! So, let's Armor up and Guard our minds with all diligence! God has given us everything we need to come out Victorious. We just need to armor up, and be on guard!
Have a victorious day, dear friends. God loves you and so do I~~
