He created man like Himself. I cannot destroy Him but I will destroy His creation. I will turn them against Him. It was easy to do with those angels in Heaven. It will surely be easier with these feeble minded creatures. I will drag man with me to the bottom-less pit. I will ensnare his soul with sin. I will consume him with rage. I will pour my vengeance upon him. I will avenge my downfall. I will not go into that lake alone. I will take down God's most priced creation with me. I will turn them against Him! By His own hand He will destroy what He has created. If He could do it to me, He will surely do it to them. I will consume man. I will take my revenge on God. I will deceive man. I will lure Him with SIN. I will take him away from that glorious destiny God has planned for Him. God created this Earth to be another Heaven. I will turn it to HELL! I will saturate the world with my venom (SIN). I will strike God were it hurts! I will disband man from his God-like nature. I will tear down God's strong hold on man and in the last war on Mount Magog, I will use him to fight against God!
Oh! The Father has sent His son Jesus to redeem them?! Time to up my antics... I will make man sin even MORE!!!"
From Biblical testimony, SIN first came into this world through Satan (the serpent). Through same Biblical testimony, we are made aware of the fact that Satan is destined for the Lake of Fire for his pride and mutinous attempt at overthrowing the King of kings! Satan was called Lucifer before Michael (God's Army General) fought and defeated him and sent him out of Heaven where he only awaits eternal damnation. Unfortunately God did not remove his powers or cunning, at least it is not recorded in the Bible. That same Devil who deceived millions of angels and turned them against God is here on Earth and he has succeeded in turning not millions this time but BILLIONS of people against God. He been the cunning guy he is did not go straight this time and present sin to us like an apple; as he did with Eve. No! This time he devised the most sly and witty plan - to introduce sin to our world and make us engage in it without even knowing - I call it the 'Normalization of Sin'.
Everyone these days has a basic knowledge of the Bible. Even the heathen know the Bible. Everyone knows
Proverbs 13:34 - Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any peopleEveryone knows
Romans 6:23 - For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.And finally, everyone knows
The soul that sinneth, it shall die.Everyone knows or at least has heard these verses at one time or the other. Everyone is aware of SIN so he knows that if he comes directly and tell you to sin, you will not! How then best will he make us sin?
Before I continue, a little digression -
Career Lobbyists will tell you that to get a man to do something he doesn't want to do, you have to either force him to do it, or make him do it while subtly convincing him that he isn't doing it. This is a well known trend in politics around the world. When a Government wants to achieve a thing, they throw in a facade. There will be an uproar from the people then they throw in their ORIGINAL plan as ameliorative measure. For example, my country - Nigeria. In 2011, the Nigerian Government announced that by 2012 it will cut fuel subsidy. True to its word on January 1st 2012, fuel subsidy was removed and prices jumped from N43 per litre to N143 per litre. This came as a very rude shock to the Nigerian populace and soon the country was thrown into chaos. 'OCCUPY NIGERIA' protests started and soon economic activities were brought to a stand still. After 2 weeks of forth and back dialogue, the Government brought down the price to N93 per litre. People were happy and satisfied! What a majority did not know is that N93 was the original price the Government had planned. Putting it first at N143 was just a facade. If they had moved it from N43 to N50 there would still have been a major uproar and they will be forced to bring it down to say N45. There will be no gains so why not put an astronomical price, then when the heat comes you provide a so-called ameliorative measure with your original plan! Genius isn't it?
Well I'm here to tell you that strategists and lobbyists are learners when it comes to 'Normalizing the Abnormal' and 'Shrouding the Original'. The Devil was the first strategist ever! He unsuccessfully strategised and arranged a coup - to fight God, dethrone Him and reign as supreme King! Unfortunately for him, 'the okra does not grow taller that its master and if it does, his master can cut it down!' *Nigerian saying* The Devil is the master of deceit. This same guy who planned to overthrow God is roaming this Earth! By his own mouth he said he has been "going to and fro in the earth, and ...walking up and down in it" (Job 1:7). Being the trickstar that he is, he didn't complete that statement. Apostle Peter (in 1Peter 5:8) will later complete it with the clause "...seeking whom he may devour!"
To deceive man and pull him into damnation, Satan decided to pull the ultimate con and eexecute one final coup - dethrone Man! To do this, he would have to make him sin, but since man will not sin because of his God-likeness, he would 'shroud' (hide) sin. Make it so appealing, so enticing, so entertaining and so NORMAL! He used our own nature against us, coming through what we see and what we hear. These would later translate to how we think, feel, talk, percieve and act. In our world today, so many things we do, say, wear, etc are high class sins! You see ladies wearing clothes that expose their cleavages, breasts, bums and all other private areas meant for their husband eyes only. We see brides wearing wedding gowns that are so derogatory to womanhood. Their whole cleavages are out, leaving nothing to the imagination of the over 100 other men at their wedding. Yet, the Pastor or Priest will join her and her husband in 'Holy' Matrimony!
As a lady, when you dress in such tempting clothes, you use parts of your body that were created to attract your husband to attract other men. Fortunately/unfortunately, it is not until a man sleeps with a woman before he has committed adultery or fornication. Jesus had this to say in
Matthew 5:27-28 - “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery. But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart".He said it in a time when provocative dresses were not in existence. A time when it was the man who chose to look lustfully. Now men are FORCED to look lustfully because God created men to be ATTRACTED to the curves on the body of a woman and when those curves are in open public display, it will take only God for a normal human man not to look, talkless of not get tempted! Ladies are now causing men to sin!
What they fail to realize is this. In the Bible, Jesus Himself states
Mark 9:42 - "but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea."In summary, if you are instrumental in the temptation of another person, if you make another person fall or If you tempt another person, the Bible says it is better for a you to be cast into the sea with a stone tied around your head. I should tell you that in the Bible, when God or any other Divinity makes a statement like this, it is because the impending doom, damnation, punishment and death of such person will be worse than drowning in a sea with stone around your neck! None of the countries whom God used such analogies for are in existence today! A majority of them were barbarically exterminated in primeval times.
(This is reiterated in Matthew 18:6)
This now brings to fore these questions; 'Why has the World become so OKAY with SIN? Why has Sinning become NORMAL?' Using our senses of hearing and seeing, the Devil warmed his way into the hearts of man. Using so many mediums such as the Press Media, Social media (blogs, forums, etc) he has presented sinful and distasteful acts as COOL, IN VOGUE and TRENDY! So many have decided to 'comform to the World' as a result of how acceptable these sins have been presented to them. In the movies, music, music videos, blogs, etcetera, we are exposed to a plethora of obscene, indecent and explicit images! So-called SUPERSTARS are shown wearing 'sexy' revealing dresses. Icons are entangled in 'sex tape scandals'. Leaders are portrayed openly denying the existence of the Almighty. Terrible sins such as exposing one's body (casuing others to sin), revolting against God and the Holy Spirit (atheism, EVOLUTION) and worst of all HOMOSEXUALITY are presented by the media as OKAY. Homosexuals have been presented by the Press as victims of society's prejudice, and as a result, people now tend to pity the 'plight' of these homosexuals and applaud those who 'come out of their closet'. Hence Human Rights Groups have shifted focus from fighting for human rights to now fighting for gay rights! Unfortunately, the above named three are the worst of sins recorded in the Bible. Infact one is an Abomination, the other is an UNFORGIVABLE SIN! If you think what you watch and hear do not affect your spirituality, THINK AGAIN! If you think its okay to dress indecently, even to the house of the Lord, don't worry. Matthew 15:8 is for you -
These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.Unfortunately, some so-called Men of God who are chosen to lead God's people to Heaven support and encourage their members in the way of darkness just for their own worldly gains. The Bible says
They worship me in vain; their teachings are merely human rules. (Matthew 15:8)
Every single person who has fallen into these traps (and a whole list of others) will fight with the Devil against God on the last day! He is USING SIN TO RECRUIT SOULS. Unfortunately, NO ONE can fight against God and win! Absolutely No one! The Devil fought against him before and lost, he will loose again!
This is why God will destroy the World, but this time; with FIRE!
Dear reader, I was recently shown a revelation of how the Devil uses the social media, especially ungodly gossip and worldly BLOGS to ENSNARE unsuspecting people including Christians. In the revelation, I saw a man, locked inside a tiny cell with a seductress. This cell was located within the mansion of a very popular blogger and it was so tiny he could barely stand sideways. I was shown hundreds of other cells like this fully occupied with people suffering and languishing inside. All Glory to God, at the end of that Revelation, men (who I know are Angels of the most high God) appeared. They came bashing into the mansion shouting "NO! This man cannot be held! No! He must be released at once!!" They proceeded to the cage where the man was and set him free from that hideous place. That man was me. Up till this moment, I was an ardent follower of various gossip blogs. I never saw anything harmful in them until I had this revelation, then I got the ministration that IDOLATRY does not only involve falling or bowing to an idol.
People, this is real. The Devil is trying tooth and nail to capture and ensnare souls. He is the master of cunning; infact, it is on record that he 'disguises himself as an angel of light' (2Corinthians 11:14). He is transforming Sin to Pleasure, Evil to Good, Lawlessness to Lawfulness, Debauchery to Rectitude, Transgression to Righteousness, Depravity to Serenity, Inequity to Equality and Immorality to Normality. It takes the exceeding grace of God to stand against the wiles of the Devil in this age. Little wonder Luke 15:7 says that "...there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents..." However, according to 2Corinthians 12:8; God's Grace is SUFFICIENT for you and me! Please, do not give in to the Devil. He is a Killer and a Destroyer. These seemingly 'harmless' 'enjoyments' of life are the high way to eternal destruction. God is real! Jesus is real! His first coming was real! His second coming is going to be REAL! I beg you, do not be left on this Earth after that trumpet sounds! Do not join Satan's army!
I leave you with this video. It is the famous 'If I were the Devil' speech made by world renown journalist Paul Harvey in 1965.
Please share this message. Let us liberate our friends and family from eternal damnation. So many are ignorant of this reality but if you reach out to them, you could be saving a soul already on its way to hell!
Remember His Grace is sufficient for us! God bless you!
Hmmmm,Gods word is ever true and live,He'd see us all thru,Amen.
