God has a plan....satan has a scheme, which one will you follow?

Good evening my friends...boy oh boy what a day it has been! I am so very glad it is soon coming to an end, and am praying tomorrow will be much better.

In prayer this night I ask you to bow with me and pray for an awakening in a person that I love who keeps making such bad choices, medication seems to have taken control of his senses and now he is to a point of allowing the medication to take  more than that. I am thanking God for the blessing of his health and well being this evening as the choices he made today could have been such a disaster. Thank you God for keeping him safe in the path of danger and please allow this to be a wake up call that his children are more important than the pills that he so lovingly takes. I ask you to ask God to bless him with conscious and with making better choices in the future. I ask you to pray with me for those battling with illness that they might feel the healing hand of God this night, to continue to pray for my friend Star for minute by minute healing and for all who are in need of blessings. In the name of Jesus Christ I ask for peace in your heart, calm in your mind, and comfort in your body. Amen.

I read this and was amazed at the writing, people this one is to be read and to be pondered...Satan is all around, he is willing us to make poor choices, he is calling out to us and urging us to join him. We are in a sad state of affairs and if we do not cling, and I mean CLING to our Father in heaven all will be lost! 

Satan’s Scheme

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. Once they gain that connection with Jesus, our power over them is broken.

So let them go to their churches; let them have their conservative lifestyles, but steal their time, so they can’t gain that relationship with 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 each week, 10-12 hours a day, so they can afford their empty 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, CD’s and their PC’s going constantly in their home 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 tables 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, mail order catalogs, sweepstakes, and every kind of newsletter and promotional offering free products, services and false hopes.

Keep skinny, beautiful models on the magazines so the husbands will believe that external beauty is what’s important, and they’ll become dissatisfied with their wives. That will fragment those families quickly!”

“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. Keep them busy, busy, busy!

And when they meet for spiritual fellowship, involve them in gossip and small talk so that they leave with troubled consciences and unsettled emotions.” Go ahead, let them be involved in soul winning; but crowd their lives with so many good causes they have no time to seek power from Jesus.

Soon they will be working in their own strength, sacrificing their health and family for the good of the cause. It will work! It will work!”

It was quite a convention. The evil angels went eagerly to their assignments causing Christians everywhere to get more busy and more rushed, going here and there.

I guess the question is: Has the devil been successful at his scheme? You be the judge! Does “busy” mean:
