The antagonist is needed?

The devil is an angel, sometimes we forget. Whenever we speak of an angel, it’s always in the context of it being a blessing from God that helps in times of need, like a miracle. Let’s acknowledge the fact that the devil is an angel gone rogue and I can’t help believe once an adversary is now used for God’s purpose to convert humanity.

But our forgiving and merciful Father in Job 1:6-12 allowed this evil tyrant to come before His presence with all the other good angels and asked permission to torment Job and God allowed him, but he wasn’t to take his life…What? God has a job the for the devil where humans and our faith in Him can be tested beyond what we can think or imagine God would allowed, except our lives would be spared.

There’s no compromising with the Lords goodness, mercy and love for His creation. But yet, us humans judges each other so mercilessly and for His sake. Definitely according to Isaiah 55:8, “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.” Wow! The thought of God allowing this is truly beyond human understanding.

But after wrestling with God over what’s going on in our world He gave unto me this revelation: The devil can’t do anything unto humanity without His permission. What? I thought to myself, “that’s wicked” and right away He replied in my head, I heard the voice of Jesus telling Judas, “what you are going to do, do quickly.” And it hit me, God knows everything, even the plans of the devil and he works it for His good, Romans 8:28 “ And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to His purpose. Everything God does is for our own good because he loves us all, John 3:16 God so loved the world

The devil is the antagonist in our lives like in the movie he keep our lives interesting, exciting and focus on the things pertaining to God, bringing out the best in us, keeping our faith and our souls grounded in God, lest we fall. We’ve got to stand balance in this world, learning with wisdom, knowledge and understanding the antagonist is subjected to God power over him, and it is through God and God alone to whom he fears. We have the ability to choose to stand in faith rather than in fear. Take control through Jesus, and in Jesus nothing is impossible we can’t do or over come, even our weaken flesh and that of the worldliness.

An antagonist is like the switch, it turns on the souls that is walking around needed to be ignited. God uses this to get us awaken within our spirit. Sometimes we need a good fight to shows us how strong we can be if we put our faith in God and our mindset.

If we fear the devil, we give into his power over us. But in Christ our light and salvation to whom we are baptized, with all boldness of his authority given by which we are to operate, the devil will be defeated and all fears is gone.

Romans 3:23-24 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of good, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. When money or anything is put before God, we know the world is in crisis and our world is in crisis. Not money or any head of government, leaders, church…can save the world besides the Son of God, Jesus. Whom do you put your trust in to make the world better. While Jesus like Moses on the mountain top getting the commandments from Gods the Israelites was busy sinning against everything they had gone through being delivered out of bondage from Pharaoh, making a golden calf for their God. What are we busy today making for our deliver, salvation…our God? Jesus is in heaven like Moses getting the laws from God to make our world better and instead of being on our knees praying and asking for guidance, protection and stability…until his return like the Israelites we’re believing some how he has forsaken and forgotten about us. We have given up on God and began to go back to our old sinful ways like Jesus never came. How could we wonder why the world is in chaos.

The devil is here to keep us in check, that why not everything that happens to God’s people is to destroy us, but to build us like Job.

A good cry

I could have never understood as a child why the Word of Gods would say, “put not your trust in man,” Psalm 146:3-5 Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help. His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish. Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God. Psalms 118:8 it is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust man…

I cried, just as Jesus wept for humanity. What going on in America today with the election is affecting the entire world regardless of their knowledge. America is not just about America, you are our big brother to many countries, and we look up to you for guidance. You have been the Abel to Cains of the world. If you become Cain, then there’s no hope for those like myself who look up to you as the beacon of light, God has chosen for the world to model after. The Lord presence has rested in you, for all the world to see. He had brought you out of darkness to be the light of the world for all to look up to, and now it looks like you’re in the battle for the brilliance of your light, in Him, through Him, to continue shine ever so bright. The enemy is in your camp, so watch and pray for deliverance. You became His light when he had placed all nations within your womb to grow. Like Abraham to whom he had promised would be father of nations, Genesis 17:5.

God didn’t choose Jerusalem, Iran, Russia, Germany…but He chose you America for such a time like this, for all the world who’s watching to see. Like Job you must stay faithful in your trials, you must stand and not faint, knowing that God is faithful. America have you lost the truth and righteousness on which you fought to attain? Have you given into the devil and his schemes, because of your vulnerability to the hardships of life after the pandemic? Are you turning the rocks to bread at the temptation of the devil?

“Are you righteous or even following after His righteousness?” Because Psalms 37:25-26 I been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed.

We are watching you big brother, to see if you will continue to be faithful to God or to man.

I cry because I see the loss in humanity of morals, ethics, respect, unity…all the things that makes good human characters. Lord knows we’re not perfect, but when it seems like we’ve forgotten God. Who’s God to us now? And have we strayed away from the path of His righteousness and no longer reverend, fear or respect Him? We’re losing ourselves into the darkness along side with the devil, whose time is limited now. Whose side do we truly want to be on? We are knowledgeable enough on who God is, and how He laid out the foundation for the deliverance of sin through Jesus our salvation of all humanity, undisputedly through the word, and the Holy Spirit.

The outcome of this American election is going to set a precedent to the entire world who’s watching for whatever the reasons God has shine the light on it. Now is the time for prayer and reflection on the power and faith in the Lord our God himself to once again take back control of man straying in the wrong path.

Psalm 30:5 “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in morning.”

“I shall not be move, I trust in HIM, do you?”
