“Seek the LORD and His strength,
seek His face continually.
Remember His marvellous works
that He hath done, His wonders…”
Job 16:11, 12
.
.
.
.
If you have ever watched debates between atheists and Christians as to whether God exists or not…
.
…perhaps the greatest argument used by atheists has to do with God allowing this world to be so evil…even condoning all the evil…even engaging in it!

“An enemy hath done this”
.
And yet, God plainly reveals to us, “An enemy hath done this”. Matthew 13:28
.
Nature reveals two entirely different forms of government: one of unselfish love, and the other of self-serving.
.
And so, as we look out upon the world, we see the remnants of God’s beauty and love, often overshadowed by the results of mankind’s sinful selfishness!
.
Now, of course, atheists will use this dichotomy in the world to make their argument against worshipping God.
.
Yes, they will conflate God’s love with mankind’s evil, showing that if God does indeed exist, He is a heartless monster, bringing evil upon poor humans.

“For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.”
Romans 14:11
.
And yet, ultimately, each and every man woman and child will realize that Heaven’s government is the one true way to everlasting joy!
.
Yes, on that great Day of God’s Judgment, it will be revealed that God’s Way was the one true Way.
.
And then will be fulfilled the followed prophecy…“every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.” Romans 14:11
.
But our prayer today is that they will come to this awakening prior to the Great Judgment on the last day!

HEAVENLY OBJECT LESSON
.
When God created the Moon and the stars, He ordained them to “rule the night” (Genesis 1:16).
.
The Moon, especially when it is full, can light your pathway through the night, as it reflects the light of the Sun.
So too, the Christian is to be a light to the world: to this sin-darkened world.
.
But as the Moon must reflect the light of the Sun, in order to be a light to the world…
.
…so also, must the Christian reflect the light of Jesus, to be a spiritual light to this planet in rebellion.
.
Listen…“Ye are the light of the world…
Let your light so shine before men,
that they may see your good works,
and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”
Matthew 5:14-16
.
However, during an eclipse, the Earth passes directly between the Sun and the Moon, preventing that sunlight from shining on the Moon’s face.
.
This is an incredible object-lesson about when the child of God allows the world to come between him and his Lord.
.
Like the eclipse, that person no longer reflects the light of Jesus, because his or her love of this dark world of sin has eclipsed the light from the “Sun of Righteousness” (see Malachi 4:2).
.
And so, this is just one of the many poetic truths seen in the Moon. (For more on this subject of an eclipse, you may link to the article… “Lunar Eclipse & Spiritual Eclipse”)

Our Favorite Babysitter: Satan!
.
Part 9:
“Public Schools”
To read Part 1, click here… FEBRUARY 3 (Our Favorite Babysitter: Satan!)
.
.
.
.
As the western nations began to transform from an agrarian economy to the industrial age, public schools began to make a whole lot of sense!
.
They made a wonderful babysitter for parents who needed to go to their jobs each day.
.
And of course, parents turned over much of their children’s upbringing to the governments.
.
Well, this was merely part of the masterplan by “the god of this world”, Lucifer, now given the office of “the Devil and Satan”.
.
And Lucifer could slowly transform the public schools into his very own indoctrination centers.

.
“To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.”
Isaiah 8:20
.
And Satan now enlisted a myriad of secularists and atheists to begin to purge out any trace of Christianity in the succeeding generations of school-age children.
.
And parents could now be freed up to pursue their jobs and careers.
.
Even mothers were now free to do whatever they wanted to do each weekday.

“For many…confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist”
2nd John 1:7
.
.
Now, while there were many dedicated teachers and administrators in the public-school systems…
.
…nevertheless, because they chose to live free from Heaven’s authority, made them useful pawns for “the god of this world” to use in this, his massive world-indoctrination camp.

“…there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies”
2nd Peter 2:1
.
Everyone was now happy with this arrangement.
.
Everyone was happy, that is, except God!
.
Yes, God was very unhappy, because He knew exactly what Satan was doing behind the scenes.
.
Millions of unseen evil angels were now working stealthily through this massive secular institution called public schooling, to turn out God-hating, atheistic antichrists.

“Mine eyes do fail with tears…for the destruction of the daughter of my people; because the children and the sucklings swoon in the streets of the city.”
Lamentations 2:11
.
This above verse from Lamentations is a lament by Jeremiah because of Satan’s destruction of the Church, both Old Testament and New, symbolized by “the daughter of My people”.
.
And God exhibits His sorrow through Jeremiah’s tears because of the lack of Biblical instruction among Children, symbolized by their “swooning in the streets” from lack of heavenly nourishment.
.
And today, far too many parents are so invested in the pursuit of earthly pleasures and prosperity…
.
…that children are often left to themselves, to be largely educated by secularist programs and atheistic schooling.

“GOOD NEWS FROM A FAR COUNTRY”
Proverbs 25:25
.
Well, the very Good News is, that God has allowed us time to “Come out of her (Babylon), My people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Revelation 18:4
.
Yes, this Babylonish world-system is ripe for God’s final judgment.
.
And anyone and everyone, from parents, children, and teachers, grandparents, singles, inmates, government leaders, etc., are invited to join in the end-time exodus out of this tragic world.
.
Yes, there is awaiting us an everlasting world: a new world, in which we will be forever happy and forever young!
.
.
.
.
.
NOTHING MORE IMPORTANT THAN OUR CHILDREN’S SALVATION!
.
Oh yes, the road ahead may be rocky and rough.
.
But just remember what Jesus endured to save our soul!
.
There is no sacrifice too great if it means salvation for our children!
.
May the Lord bless us in this endeavor!

“And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman…
And there appeared another wonder in heaven;
and behold a great red dragon,
having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads…
And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman,
that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.”

Daily Devotional, Year 4 – December 3 (The Devil Made Me Do It! Part 39: “Satan & Societal Tsunamis”)
By admin On May 12th, 2024Isa_59:19 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.
Psa 2:1 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
Psa 2:2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
Psa 2:3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

The Devil Made Me Do It!
.
Part 39:
“Satan & Societal Tsunamis”
To read the first part of this topic, go here…October 13th (The Devil Made Me Do It! Part 1)
.
.
.
.
.
Back in the 1970’s, a certain saying was popularized…“The Devil made me do it! The Devil made me do it!”
.
And this was merely mocking Christians, who were seemingly obsessed with pointing the finger at the Devil.
.
Then they could all laugh and mock “the silly and absurd notion” that Satan is a very active and powerful force controlling the peoples of this world, by mockingly saying…“The Devil made me do it!”

SATAN, “THE GOD OF THIS WORLD”
2nd Corinthians 4:4
.
But the horrifying fact is, the Devil does indeed cause the vast percentage of the
world’s inhabitants to do a great number of things!
.
After all, Ephesians, Chapter 2 reveals a truth that practically nobody realizes or accepts! It is perhaps the most egregious truth in all of the Bible!
.
And this verse is, “…the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:”
.
And let’s face it! The idea that the entire world’s inhabitants are filled with this antichrist spirit is more than anybody is willing to accept, much less even admit! (See 1st John 4:1-6)

.
Have you been watching the news lately?! A lot of very angry protesters! And in so many places at the same time!
.
Have you ever wondered why these events seem so well-orchestrated?
.
Doesn’t it seem odd how so many people could get so worked up over the same thing?
.
Oh yes, people might just assume that some Dr. Evil might be spending billions to orchestrate such movements. Or maybe this high-tech world is the culprit.
.
Yes, many social/political commentators are now blaming the social media for creating a “mob-mentality”, especially among younger, more naive people.
.
And many are blaming the public schools and universities for grooming young people into evil ideologies.
.
And of course, most of these protestors actually do have legitimate complaints about this or that. Or at least, they think they have legitimate complaints.
.
Well, all these factors are, no doubt, greatly contributing to societal tsunamis which sweep through the world, one-after-another!
.
And not only protests! Just think about the pop music world, and how young teens all over the world simply go crazy over some new pop-singer-idol!
.
Screaming and fainting young fans around the world in adoration over some young pimple-faced rock-singers.
.
Or maybe some new craze, like surfing, or skateboarding, or dancing, or fashion, or vehicle, or new ideology…
.
Yes, yes, yes, this instant communication world is greatly the reason for all these societal-tsunamis which sweep over the world.
.
And yes, there are a few Dr. Evils out there, giving their billions to incite mob-violence.
.
But there is a Dr. Evil who is the true orchestrator of all societal tsunamis.
.
He is the unseen spirit of evil whom the Bible refers to as “the god of this world”. 2nd Corinthians 4:4
.

7 HEADS, 10 HORNS, & 7 CROWNS OF THE DRAGON
.
“And there appeared another wonder in heaven;
and behold a great red dragon,
having seven heads and ten horns,
and seven crowns upon his heads.”
Revelation 12:3
.
In Revelation, the Dragon of Revelation 12 is described as having seven heads, ten horns, and seven crowns.
.
However, the Dragon Constellation up in the night sky does not.
.
But God has faithfully created the wave of water, in such a way, as to illustrate this same concept of the seven heads, ten horns, and seven crowns.
.
Because this wave of water is basically composed of ten stars.
.
The main body of the wave has seven stars (#‘s, 1 thru 7).
.
And the tip of the crest of the wave has the other three stars (#’s, 8, 9 & 10). So we have this 7 and 10 numbering.
.
And this gives us a great clue, as to where in the Bible we should look, to find out the riddle as to just what or who do these 7 heads, 10 crowns, and 7 horns represent.
.
Because, the Bible speaks very much about floods and waters as being associated with Satan (the Dragon).
