WE CAN LEARN A LOT FROM THE PIGEON IN THIS PHOTO . SOMETIMES YOU NEED TO GET AWAY FROM OTHERS
TO SPEND TIME ALONE WITH GOD .

Are You Too B-U-S-Y?

"... that Satan might not outwit us... " - 2 Corinthians 2:11 NIV ( article by Bob Gass)


Addressing a worldwide convention of demons, satan told them: 'As long
as Christians stay close to God we've no power over them, so: 1) Keep
them busy with non-essentials. 2) Tempt them to overspend and go into
debt. 3) Make them work long hours to maintain empty lifestyles. 4)
Discourage them from spending family time, for when homes disintegrate
there's no refuge from work. 5) Overstimulate their minds with
television and computers so that they can't hear God speaking to them.
6) Fill their coffee tables and nightstands with newspapers and
magazines so they've no time for Bible reading. 7) Flood their letter
boxes with sweepstakes, promotions and get-rich-quick schemes; keep them
chasing material things. 8) Put glamorous models on TV and on magazine
covers to keep them focused on outward appearances; that way they'll be
dissatisfied with themselves and their mates. 9) Make sure couples are
too exhausted for physical intimacy; that way they'll be tempted to look
elsewhere. 10) Emphasise Santa and the Easter Bunny; that way you'll
divert them from the real meaning of the holidays. 11) Involve them in
'good' causes so they won't have any time for 'eternal' ones. 12) 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. Do
these twelve things faithfully. I promise-it'll work!' Have you figured
out the difference between being busy and being successful in what God's
called you to do? Sometimes being B-U-S-Y just means Being Under
Satan's Yoke!
