Satan called a worldwide convention.In his opening address to his evil angels he said,We can't keep the Christians from going to the church.We can't kep them from reading their Bibles and knowing the truth.We can't even keep them from conservative values.But we can do something else.We can keep them from forming an intimate abiding experience in Christ.If they gain that connection with Jesus,our power over them is broken.


So let them go to church,let them have their conservative lifestyles,but steal their time,so they can't gain an experience in 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 the day!

How shall we do this?shouted his angels.
Keep them busy in the non-essentials of life and invent unnumbered schemes to occupy their minds,he answered.

Tempt them to spend,spend,spend,then borrow,borrow,borrow.Convince the wives to work and the husbands to work six or seven days a week,ten to twelve hours a day,so they can afford their lifestyles.Keep them from spending time with their children.As their family fragments,soon,their homes will offer no escape from the pressure of work.

Overstimulate 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 , the VCD and theirs DVD's going constantly.This will jam their minds and break that union with Christ.

Fill their 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,sweepstakes,mail order catalogues and every kind of newsletter and promotional offering,free products,services and false hopes.

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,send them to amusement parks,sporting events,concerts and movies instead.AnD when they meet for spiritual fellowship,involve them in gossip and small talk so that they have no time to seek power from Christ. Soon they will be working in their own strength,sacrificing their health and family unity for the good of the cause.

It was quite a convention in the end.And the evil angels went eagerly to their assignments causing Christians everywhere to get busy,busy,busy and rush here and there.

Has the devil been successful at his scheme?You be the judge.
