Absolute evil. That is what we are seeing so blatantly in
America today. Of course, most believers
in Jesus have recognized evil all about in this world on an on-going
basis. And probably most nonbelievers
surely see some aspects of evil. But
overall the secular world just doesn’t comprehend it or understand it.
Attempting to explain the
horrible violence such as happened in El Paso and Dayton, various politicians
and media reporters focus on gun control again and again or look into
individual problems like mental illness.
Or drugs. Or just turn to such
catchall phrases as racism. The fact
remains, what we are seeing is a very visible, undeniable display of out and
out plain absolute evil in all its perverted glory.
The mayor of El Paso got it right
in an interview when he described what had happened as absolute evil. That’s it.
The devil is running amok these
days. His time is limited. We are nearing the end.
So many who do not know Jesus are
easy prey for his talents. Remember, he
is the father of lies (John 8.44). People who do not know about the spiritual
realm and about how to use God’s tools for protecting themselves have no
defense against the wiles of the evil one.
No unbeliever can stand against demons and evil spirits and most
certainly against the devil. No believer
can either, except by standing in Jesus, by exercising faith and using the
tools God has provided.
Look at how empty unbelievers
are:
·
They
don’t know God has sent his ministering spirits – his angels – to serve those
who will inherit salvation. That service
certainly includes protection. (See Hebrews 1:14).
·
And
they don’t know about all the protective armor God has given us as described by
Paul in Ephesians 6.
·
They
don’t know that a true believer in Jesus can, in Jesus’ name, cast out evil
spirits, as Jesus said in Mark 16:17.
·
And
they don’t know that a born again, spirit filled believer can discern spirits, can
discern when there is danger about, can discern which way to go. The gifts of the Spirit, the extraordinary
guidance of the Spirit, are of indescribable value to the born again, Spirit
filled believer (see John 14-16; 1 Corinthians 12, 14).
So many things God has done to
equip the believer. So much he has for
us.
And you as a believer, a
born-again, Spirit-filled believer, have those skills and can take advantage of
all this in this world.
For more on all this get our CDs The Holy
Spirit, Fighting Evil, Your Authority in Christ, and more. Watch our videos on these subjects on our
website or on YOUTUBE. Read the past
newsletters that focused on this, such as the March 2018 one.
And get out there and do all you
can to help others find the Lord. Give
them our book WAKE UP AMERICA! – JESUS IS COMING SOON. Tell them about good and evil, about Jesus
and what he has done for them. Tell them
about all the authority a believer has.
These are the last of the last
days. As the angel said to Daniel in the
last chapter of the book of Daniel in the Bible, the wicked will continue to
be wicked. None of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will
understand.(Daniel 12:10).
True believers operating in the gifts know what is
happening. They can take action. And they keep their eyes on Jesus.
KEEP YOUR EYES ON JESUS.
HE IS YOUR ONLY HOPE.
ONE MORE TIME. HE IS
YOUR ONLY HOPE.
Those killers in El Paso and Dayton did not know Jesus. They did not know his limitless love, his
forgiveness, his caring. They did not
know his and the Holy Spirit’s and God the Father’s guidance for life. They did not know the words of the Bible are
true and real and full of life. They did
not know there is more to life than what they were experiencing, more than the
great darkness and loneliness and emptiness. But they did know this – they knew
the devil, whether they recognized him or not.
They knew darkness, they knew evil, they knew the direction of the evil
forces. And they acted on that.
The devil is real. So
too demons and evil spirits. But God is
far more powerful. Everything ever made
is under Jesus’ feet. In him, we can
prevail. Do that. Prevail.
Remember again what I am always saying – be alert, be ready
for the Lord to come. In his words to me
years ago, be alert, pray for the lost, seek him with all your heart.
Peace.
Maranatha.
Keep Your Eyes on Jesus!
