Each day, satan and his evil forces have one battle plan. "As long as Christians stay close to God, we have no power over them," he says, "so here is our battle plan:"
- Keep them busy with non-essentials
- Tempt them to overspend and go into debt
- Make them work long hours to maintain empty lifestyles
- Discourage them from spending family time, for when homes disintegrate there's no refuge from work
- Overstimulate their minds with television and computers so they can't hear God speaking to them
- Fill their coffee tables and nightstands with newspapers and magazines so they've no time for Bible reading
- Flood their mailboxes with sweepstakes, promotions and get-rich-quick schemes - keep them chasing material things
- Put glamorous models on TV and magazine covers to keep them focused on outward appearance - that way they'll be
dissatisfied with themselves and their mates
- Make sure couples are too exhausted for physical intimacy, that way they'll be tempted to look elsewhere
- Emphasize Santa & the Easter Bunny; that way you'll divert them from the real meaning of the holidays
- Involve them in "good" causes so they won't have any time for "eternal" ones
- Make them self-sufficient. Keep them so busy working in their own strength that they'll never know the joy of
God's power working through them
"I promise you," satan says, "if we can accomplish these 12 things faithfully, I promise it'll work and they'll be ours."
Have you figured out the difference between being busy and being successful in what God has called you to do?
Sometimes being B-U-S-Y just means "Being Under Satan's Yoke." Break free.
