Satan on a Short Leash

There is a lot of discussion these days about Satan. Nearly every Christian is complaining about their struggles with Satan. They are correct about one thing. Satan appears to be working overtime, as he knows his time is short. Most Christians believe that we are indeed living in the last of the Last Days. They don’t need to go far to come to this conclusion, all they need to do is look out their window. They say keep an eye on the wildlife and they can give you a whole new perspective of what’s going on with our environment. All wildlife tend to be the first to escape a worsening situation or simply disappear. Anyone with eyes to see, they have not missed the sudden disappearance of many of our wildlife including many of the smaller insects. If you venture away long enough from your cell phones, social media platforms, and virtual games you too will see what is happening. The Sun feels like it’s getting much hotter causing many to complain about being burnt or the brightness so intense that shelter is sought immediately. Although this is only the beginning, many believers are already casting blame in the wrong direction. We have all seen our share of devastating fires torching whole cities, and unimaginable weather patterns from golf-ball size hail to stronger hurricanes and from destructive tornadoes to massive flooding. We have also seen an increase in major earthquakes around the world, but through all of these so-called natural disasters, God’s children are still casting the blame in the wrong direction as we shall explain.

Furthermore, personal accidents seem to be off the charts as Hospital ERs are being overwhelmed. These personal accidents range from accidental falls or the proper operation of machinery to horrible miscalculations causing tragic automobile accidents. Again, we have many of God’s children casting the blame in the wrong direction, which we shall soon explain. We have all had our share of heated debates and arguments. We have all felt the searing burn from iron that was cast deep within our hearts. We have all felt the tension and the struggles of daily life especially when we run into an argumentative spirit or a soul who is no longer listening to God’s emphatic direction. Yes, in all this we have cast our blame in the wrong direction. With all these questions about where to cast that blame, there appears to be a new movement in the midst of us claiming everything is the cause of Satan as if he ruled the entire world. Although there is some truth to this statement, it only applies to non-believers who still rest under his control. For the true born-again Christian, Satan has no absolute control over our lives unless we totally ignore the teachings of the anointed Scriptures. Unfortunately, we are living in a day of lukewarm Christianity or in a day when believers refuse to grow up in Christ. Either way, they will experience the drama and the suffering of Satanic attacks.

If you are a lukewarm Christian then you have grown accustomed to integrating the world’s teachings with the teachings of the anointed Scriptures. These powerful teachings from the world, orchestrated by the powers of darkness, are readily available on all social media platforms, television, and YouTube. The danger of integrating the world’s teachings is it waters down the powerful teachings of God in the anointed Scriptures. When this happens it creates the lukewarm Christian and the believers who refuse to grow up in Christ. Again, when this happens then you unknowingly allow Satan to control and diminish your life through one horrific tragedy after another. Dear children, there is a better way. The Bible says, “According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust” (II Peter 1:3-4). This is a powerful word that says we don’t need to integrate the world’s teachings with God’s eternal wisdom because God knows the moment you do then you will either remain lukewarm or a “babe” unable to take solid food needed for Spiritual growth (Hebrews 5:11-6:3). Solid food goes well beyond just reading and quoting Scripture. We must apply the Word to our lives by being doers of the Word and not just hearers (James 1:22).

If you remain a lukewarm Christian or a babe unwilling to grow, then you allow the unknown spirits to interfere and control your life. So, you blame everything on Satan like you had nothing to do with it, but you did more than you are willing to recognize. If we grow up in Christ becoming doers of the word, then we will see the many things Satan can do to an immature believer, and we will also see the many things we can do through Spiritual growth that will repel Satan. We will in time recognize the areas that Satan is more prone to attack, like our unwillingness to forgive and forget. In fact, the Bible tells us to settle our disputes before we go to bed, because if we don’t then Satan will keep the trespass alive in our mind until a molehill becomes a mountain (Ephesians 4:26-27). Moreover, if you fail to truly forgive every trespass in your heart, then it puts you in a very dangerous position of not being forgiven by God, which can have horrific consequences. Dear children, as we grow up in Christ, we learn the many wiles of the devil and specifically how to keep Satan at a distance, unable to touch us any longer. Although Satan is a great quoter of the Bible, we too can quote it back to him in context as we follow only the anointed Scriptures. I have written extensively about this in my second published book, “Stand Firm, Godly Counsel for the Last Days” (consider getting a copy today from my bookstore).

Furthermore, if God is allowing Satan to attack you by causing you to question your salvation, or your ability to become all that God has destined you for, or question your worthiness, then we must ask God where we have failed. It may be a lack of faith in God’s abilities or some undisclosed secret sins that must be openly confessed. Stop blaming Satan for everything and look within. When you grow up in Christ becoming mature, by coming out of the world, and staying exclusively with God’s anointed word, which includes His 127 commandments in the New Testament, then you will no longer blame everything on Satan. Remember, it’s often our own behavior that allows Satan in our lives to do as he wills. If we follow God exclusively by allowing Him to grow us from one degree of glory to another, then we will truly see that God is in charge and in control of the entire universe. Satan cannot do anything without God allowing it, in the same way that God allowed Satan to test Job in the Old Testament (Job 1:6-12). On the other hand, there are many things in the world where God acts exclusively by sending one plague and woe after another to open the eyes of fallen humanity. Please dear children do not attribute these acts to Satan who is on a very short leash and not allowed to do anything without God’s permission.

As mature believers in Christ we know exactly how to deal with Satan even if we must first repent, then use God’s powerful words that say, “Begone Satan in the name of Christ,” which mature believers never make a show of but often do it under their breath. Remember, dear children, Satan is truly on a short leash held strongly by our Almighty God. This will give you a better understanding that God is truly in control of everything, which means if you grow up becoming all that God wants, then you will face nothing too difficult, and Satan will have nothing to do with you because you are always happy, happy in the Lord. And as far as the rest of fallen humanity, as mature believers, we must speak openly and boldly about how God is intensifying His wrath on this world. Yes, all those so-called natural disasters that we spoke of earlier must not be attributed to Satan or his powers of darkness. I have previously written about the seven trumpets, the three woes, and the final seven bowls of God’s wrath from the Book of Revelation to demonstrate God’s intervention into His world since the First Century. God is not oblivious to the current wars and the approaching global conflicts in the world. We must tell the fallen world that they are experiencing the consequences of their many sins and stop blaming everything on Satan. God is in control.

The Gospel Presentation

We have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, which explains the many difficulties that you are currently facing in your life. Well, I have good news, God has solved that problem by sending His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, who was born of a virgin to show us the way to a beautiful new life in Christ. God has dealt with all of our sins past, present, and future by having His son pay the debt for our sins. Jesus Christ willingly went to the Cross in our stead by allowing all of the world’s sins to be placed upon Him as a sacrificial Lamb. As Christ hung on the Cross, the wrath of God was poured out on Him to pay the penalty for our sins. Jesus Christ died on the Cross and was buried for three days. On the third day, Christ arose from death to life everlasting. The good news is if we believe in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, then we will be forgiven for all of our sins and receive the Holy Spirit. The Spirit will lead us into all truth helping us in the transformation process of putting off the old life, allowing the old sin nature to die with Christ, and then putting on our new life in Christ by being raised with Christ to everlasting life. You can accept Christ today by confessing your sins to Him through a simple prayer asking Him to forgive you and make you into a new creation filled with the Holy Spirit. If you have done that, then you have just begun the greatest journey of your life that leads to heaven and eternal life. Welcome to the Kingdom.

Searching the Hearts of Humanity

Can we imagine for a minute that the whole world is at peace? No more wars. No more battles. No more hate-filled speeches. For a moment in time, peace would reign supreme. One is coming and is already here, bringing forth a miracle that will astound the whole world. Although prophetically speaking, this peace will be short-lived, it will bring forth great praises from all the people. There will be rejoicing in the streets, marching bands, and great merriment because for the first time, there will be a cessation of all wars. There will be one person who will be attributed all honor and praise for this monumental accomplishment. They will happily sing and shout, “All hail to the Prince of Peace.” This praise is not unfounded in a world that was thrown into chaos because of the mass riots on college campuses, horrific acts of lawlessness, and terrorism because of the wars and growing Antisemitism. This praise is not unfounded when unchecked wars have affected innocent women and children through diseases, starvation, and untimely deaths that have gripped the hearts of humanity. This praise is not unfounded in a world of increased terrorism because of undeclared wars that are targeting people and infrastructure through conventional weapons or explosive devices along with targeting food, drugs, and water supply through dangerous biological pathogens.

Unfortunately, this peace will be short-lived, because nothing has really changed in the hearts and minds of humanity. Gross immorality and lawlessness will still abound. Although on the surface things may appear to be very civil, but behind closed doors anger, perversions, and ruthlessness will continue unabated. God of all Holiness and Righteousness sees everything. He has seen the hearts and minds of all humanity. Nothing has escaped His vision. The whole world will be held accountable for their outrageous sins against a Holy God. For many years, the world has believed that it is on the side of righteousness, with each individual choosing their own religion or moral standards in a growing world of tolerance, especially in the West. They have believed that the world had finally arrived at the apex of peace, harmony, and prosperity for all. Yet, for thousands of years, the true prophets of God have always been ignored. They have ignored the warnings that God will, in the end, judge all unrighteousness. They have ignored the prophecies about the first Beast or the Antichrist. They have ignored the prophecies about the second Beast or the false prophet, and they have ignored the prophecy about the image of the Beast or Artificial Intelligence. But now we need to pay close attention to how the whole Eastern portion of the world, along with other nations, are being formed together as a mighty force to bring down modern-day Babylon, its allies, and the State of Israel when the time is right.

The time will be right when the Beasts, in the Book of Revelation, have finally gained global power through obtaining world peace along with great promises of wealth and prosperity. We must realize that the true power of the two Beasts comes from Satan and his powers of darkness. This great power to perform one miracle after another will astonish the entire world where the greatest miracle is bringing peace to the entire world and recovering from an attempted assassination. There will be great power to change the laws and overcome legal systems that have stood in place for many hundreds of years. Let’s understand that this worldwide peace will take a lot of effort to bring warring nations together to even discuss peace, which will be accomplished by making great promises and becoming an expert at making the art of the deal. This art of the deal is the outcome, giving everything needed to accomplish the needed outcome. When people are unwilling to give whatever is necessary to accomplish the needed outcome they will be presented as a foolhardy person. They will be mocked with demeaning language. They will be presented as the stumbling block to world peace. Either way eventually worldwide peace will be obtained allowing everyone to praise the Prince of Peace or the Beast of Revelation.

As this worldwide peace is being accomplished by the Beast or Antichrist, the other nations in the East are already forming alliances with one another. To these other nations, there is no guarantee of lasting peace even if it’s accomplished in the first place. Some of these nations do not want to lose their ability to make war against what they perceive to be Satan or the Beast. They don’t want to lose their ability to make their nation prosper by maintaining fair and equitable tariffs. They want to maintain their advantage by becoming stronger partners with the other nations in the East. So, they will continue their alliances. They will continue to put their countries on a better war footing. And they will continue to eye modern-day Babylon, America, as truly an evil empire that hates their people and that’s always trying to gain the advantage over them both militarily and economically. Some still allow their people to march in their streets crying out death to America and to wipe Israel completely off the map. I find it incredibly interesting with all the clear prophecies about the destruction of modern-day Babylon, in the Book of Revelation, that no one considers that the alliance of the Eastern nations is being formed to fulfill this prophecy (Revelation 13).

Yet, the prophecy will be fulfilled after a short peace designed to give praise to the coming Beast, known as the Prince of Peace. Babylon will be burnt to the ground bringing forth great tragedy to its inhabitants. So, the question is, “How did we miss this?” Especially, when on the surface everything looked great with most of God’s people rejoicing for all the phenomenal changes being made to push back the evil on so many fronts. We saw them stand united against the perversions of teaching our children that they could pick their own gender. They have stood united to push back the perversions being openly displayed in the streets of all the great cities in the Western world. They were alarmed by all the fraud and corruption in our most sacred institutions. We were shocked at how the unhealthy and dangerous ingredients were allowed in our food products damaging a whole generation of our blessed children. So, we rooted for our blessed leaders thinking that we are finally on the path to righteousness. We openly rejoiced when crime and lawlessness were brought to justice in large numbers across our land.  With all this great rejoicing and the praising of our leaders, we overlooked the critical element of how God views humanity. We only looked on the outside and no longer considered looking at the hearts and minds of humanity.

The only hope we have for our nation is to start looking at the hearts and minds of humanity. When we do, then we will perceive their true standing before God. We will perceive that their only hope is the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Changing laws will never change their hearts. Or forcing the population to follow all the laws will not change their hearts. Making them hide behind closed doors will never change their hearts. It’s time to stop trusting in the government and its new laws to bring changes to the hearts and minds of humanity. We should do everything we can to preach the simple Gospel posted below. If they refuse to accept the Gospel allowing God through the Spirit to change their hearts, then they will receive the full wrath of Almighty God. Remember, whatever peace is established will be short-lived. The Eastern nations will arise striking Babylon with everything they have and if that’s not enough the Sun will finish the job bringing forth intense heat and firestorms that will engulf the Kingdom of the Beast. Dear children, spend whatever precious time that you have left leading people to Christ and warning the rest of their impending doom. Let every believer stand firm believing that God will never give them more than what they can endure. Let this hope remain in you as God’s prophecies are being fulfilled. Nothing will change the course of prophetic history.

Please Join Me in Prayer

Good morning Heavenly Father. Oh Lord, it breaks our hearts to see so many two-faced, double-minded, totally immature, or fake Christians on social media. They act like no one can see their foolishness, their immaturity, their foul mouths, and their gross immorality. At times we feel as though our preaching, teaching, and counsel is falling on deaf ears. It’s simply not bringing about the desired change of increased faith and transformation in Christ. Don’t they know that you can see everything; every foul post and every unstable action that shows the truth of who they are in Christ? Yes, LORD, you see everything, every minute of every day. We pray that this will sink into their hard and unstable hearts, that’s being blown about by every wind of doctrine produced by unrighteous men. Don’t they know that when they ask their theological questions on social media that they will receive everyone’s foolish opinion instead of the truth? We pray that they will ask only you or only one other mature believer that will help them to hear your voice along with discovering the truth from the Bible. We pray this in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good” (Proverbs 15:3).

Thus Saith The Lord

With all that’s happening in the world, no one says, “Thus saith the Lord.” We hear prophesies, we hear the Bible quoted out of context, we hear people’s comments, we hear conspiracy theories, we hear great speeches, and preachers exhorting the Word, but we don’t ever hear, “Thus saith the Lord.” Yet, the world belongs to God, He created it. So, let us have ears to hear what the Lord says about your little squabbles, your unsanctioned wars, your political maneuvering, and your lying news feeds. Let us listen to what God has to say while we still have time. Continue reading Thus Saith The Lord
