SATAN'S MEETING


Satan called a worldwide convention of demons. In his opening address he said, “We can't keep people from going to pray." "We can't keep them from reading their holy books and knowing the truth. “We can't even keep them from forming an intimate relationship with their GOD. “Once they gain that connection with GOD, our power over them is broken." "So let them go to their prayers; let them have their covered dish dinners, BUT steal their time, so they don't have time to develop a relationship with GOD.."

"This is what I want you to do," said the devil: "Distract them from gaining hold of their GOD and maintaining that vital connection throughout their day! “How shall we do this?" his demons shouted. “Keep them busy in the non-essentials of life and invent innumerable schemes to occupy their minds," he answered. “Tempt them to spend, spend, spend, and borrow, borrow, borrow. “Persuade the wives to go to work for long hours 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, CDs and their PCs going constantly in their home 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 God. “Fill the 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, mail order catalogs, sweepstakes, and every kind of newsletter and promotional offering free products, services and 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 at night. “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 distractions to distract them from teaching their children the real meaning of life. “Even in their recreation, let them be excessive." "Have them return from their recreation exhausted. “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. “Keep them busy, busy, busy! “And when they meet for spiritual fellowship, involve them in gossip and small talk so that they leave with troubled consciences. “Crowd their lives with so many good causes they have no time to seek power from GOD. “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 quite a plan! The demons went eagerly to their assignments causing people everywhere to get busier and more rushed, going here and there. Having little time for their God or their families. Having no time to tell others about the power of GOD to change lives. I guess the question is, has the devil been successful in his schemes? You be the judge!!!!!Does "BUSY" mean: B-eing U-nder S-atan's Y-oke?Please pass this on, if you aren't too BUSY!

The Sinking Ship

There were three ships which were nearby when the Titanic sunk. One of them was known as the Sampson. It was 7 miles away from the Titanic and they saw the white flares signaling danger, but because the crew had been hunting seals illegally and didn't want to be caught, they turned and went the opposite direction away from the Titanic. This ship represents us and people like us if we are so busy looking inward at our own sin and lives that we can't recognize when someone else is in need. The next ship was the Californian. This ship was only 14 miles away from the Titanic, but they were surrounded by ice fields and the captain looked out and saw the white flares, but because the conditions weren't favorable and it was dark, he decided to go back to bed and wait until morning. The crew tried to convince themselves that nothing was happening. This ship represents those of us who say I can't do anything now. The conditions aren't right for it and so we wait until cond...

Be Happy (A True Story)

Around twenty years ago, I was living in Seattle and going through hard times. I could not find satisfying work, and I found this especially difficult, as I had a lot of experience and a Masters degree. To my shame, I was driving a school bus to make ends meet and living with friends. I had lost my apartment. I had been through five interviews with a company and, one day between bus runs, they called to say I did not get the job. I went to the bus barn like a zombie of disappointment. Later that afternoon, while doing my rounds through a quiet suburban neighborhood, I had an inner wave - like a primal scream - arise from deep inside me, and I thought, "Why has my life become so hard? Give me a sign, I asked, a physical sign, not some inner voice type of thing." Immediately after this internal scream, I pulled the bus over to drop off a little girl. As she passed, she handed me an earring and said I should keep it in case somebody claimed it. The earring was stamped me...

Important Bricks Thrown at you

About ten years ago, a young and very successful executive named Josh was traveling down a Chicago neighborhood street. He was going a bit too fast in his sleek, black, 12 cylinder Jaguar XKE, which was only two months old. He was watching for kids darting out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something. As his car passed, no child darted out, but a brick sailed out and - WHUMP! - it smashed Into the Jag's shiny black side door! SCREECH..!!!! Brakes slammed! Gears ground into reverse, and tires madly spun the Jaguar back to the spot from where the brick had been thrown. Josh jumped out of the car, grabbed the kid and pushed him up against a parked car. He shouted at the kid, "What was that all about and who are you? Just what the heck are you doing?!" Building up a head of steam, he went on. "That's my new Jaguar, that brick you threw is gonna cost you a lot of money. Why did you throw it?" "Please, mist...
