SATAN'S MEETING

 

 

Satan called a worldwide convention of devils. In his opening address he said, "We can't keep 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 relationship with their savior. Once they gain that connection with Jesus, our power over them is broken."

 

"This is what I want you to do, "said the devil: "Distract them from gaining hold of their Savior and maintaining a vital connection with him throughout their day." How shall we do this? His devils shouted

 

Let them go to their churches; let them have their covered dish dinners, BUT STEAL THEIR TIME, so they don't have time to develop a relationship with JESUS CHRIST. Keep them in the non-essentials of life and invent innumerable schemes to occupy their minds. "He answered.

 

"Temp them to spend, spend, spend, and borrow, borrow, borrow. Temp them to get bigger houses with more yard work (and bigger houses take more time to clean) and bigger cars that require more time to maintain."

 

Persuade the wives to go to work for long hours, put their kids in day care 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 families fragment, soon, their homes 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, DVD'S and their PC's going constantly in their homes 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 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 get-rich-quick schemes to give them false hopes."

 

"Keep skinny, beautiful models on the magazines and TV so their husbands will believe that outward beauty is what's important, and they'll become dissatisfied with their wives. "Keep the wives too tired to love their husbands" Give them headaches too! If they don't give their husbands the love they need, they will begin to look elsewhere. That will fragment their families quickly!

 

"Give them Santa Clause to distract them from who God really is. Give them an Easter bunny so they won't talk about His resurrection and power over sin and death.

 

"Keep them too busy to go out in nature and reflect on God's creation. Send them to amusement parks, sporting events, plays, concerts, and movies instead. Even in their recreation, let them be excessive. Have them return from their recreation exhausted." "Keep them Busy, Busy, Busy, Busy!"

 

"And when they meet for spiritual fellowship, involve them in gossip and small talk so that they leave with troubled consciences."

 

"Load 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 quit a plan! The demons went eagerly to their assignments causing Christians everywhere to get busier and more rushed, going here and there. Having little time for their God or their families.

 

Having no time to read their Bibles, Pray, live for the Lord and attend church.

 

I guess the question is, has Satan been successful in his schemes?? You be the judge!!!!

Does "Busy” mean:
