For whatever is born of God overcomes the world;
and this is the victory that has overcome the world–our faith.
Who is the one who overcomes the world,
but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God…
(1 John 5:4-5)
I haven’t shared my thoughts here yet concerning the shooting in Connecticut. I haven’t shared because the truth is I haven’t cried. With no tears falling I have battled whether I had become callous and cold or if it was something else… and well my conclusion…
I haven’t cried not because I am not sad… but because I am flat out MAD.
There is a time for tears… but these acts of evil no longer make me cry… they inflame my inner being with a passionate resolve to fight Satan with every fiber of my being. I hate him… I mean I HATE HIM!
I hate the way I see his slimy hands weave around the throats and hearts of the people of God… the way I see him blind and deceive and manipulate and twist and distort and how he manages to convince people that it was never him at work…
Evil is as evil does.
Evil is not an illness.
Evil is an open unabashed attack by Satan and the demons of hell. It’s a demonic possession on a soul that refuses the Light and loves the darkness. It’s Satan with an open door that he can walk through because he has so oppressed and blinded so many in one place that he now has the advantage… This is the evil day, the whole world lies in the power of the evil one…
People of God… believer in Christ… keeper of the Gospel… proclaimer of the Word… have you went AWOL on your fellow soldiers in the army of Christ?
There is a time for tears…
But today I am not crying. My eyes will not be blurred by the emotional turmoil of this tragedy. My God is keeping them clear. I will not wring my hands with a woe is me and woe is them. I am angry with a righteous anger. I am filled with a godly jealousy for the souls of children.
Satan has always made his strongest and most brazen attacks on the children.
Just like a lion.
When a lion is taking over a new territory the first thing he does is kill all the cubs in the pride. Any cub fathered by the former lion is destroyed and then the lion gets busy mating with the lioness to produce his own offspring…
CHRISTIAN THINK!
And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth,
so that when she gave birth he might devour her child…
So the dragon was enraged with the woman,
and went off to make war with the rest of her children,
who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus.
Revelation 12:4, 17
Satan has always went after the children.
Pharaoh sent out a decree, Herod sent out a decree, Hitler sent out a decree, the Supreme Court of the United States of America sent out a decree…
Here’s the thing Satan… I’M AFTER THE CHILDREN TOO!!!!!!!!!
Just keep making this red-head angry… go ahead… make my day! I am not crying anymore. When a woman stops crying, she means business. I am not playing games at the foot of the cross… I am at war.
How about you, precious one?
