Faith Is The Victory That Overcomes The World!
The Ignorant Fishermen Blog ^ | 8/20/09 | DJP I.F.

Posted on 08/20/2009 2:25:58 PM PDT by The Ignorant Fisherman

Daily bombardments from the world rattle and destroy the faith of the men and women of God. It is sad to say that many are now shipwrecked on the rocks of unbelief and self-pity. Satan in his attempt to overrule truth (reality), absolutes and the Eternal Person of God seeks to destroy the love and dedication of God's children. The Bible states:

Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8), and: For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places (Ephesians 6:12).

The truth of the matter is that we are in a Great Spiritual War for the hearts, souls and minds of men. Many are oblivious to this fact. Satan, in his rebellion against Almighty God, seeks the ruin and destruction of anyone that practices the absolute truths of the Creator and His Word.

I feel you my brother.. Alot of Conservatives want Reagan more then the Lord Jesus Christ who is the Way, the Truth and the Life! Almighty God is not into numbers.

Rejoice my Friend in Him! Victory in Jesus!

The Devil is the God of this world and the quote from Ephesians 6:12 is exactly correct: For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Those principalities, powers, etc, in the heavenly places are the devils fallen angels (demons as commonly known). Satan the devil wants americans to clean up his (unholy) world and so many churches and american are totally self deceived by this Great Spiritual War for the hearts. If people fail to seek bible doctrine, as so many churches have completely stoped teaching, then when the future Anti-Christ comes and the strong delusion comes from the Devil, sad to say that so many will fall prey to this deception. And this deception shall impact conservatives and liberals alike, God is no respector of persons, and certainly Satan is no respector of person nor of God. I prasie God and the Lord Jesus Christ for calling me before the foundation of the world and His indelling Holy Ghost / Spirit. I feed on bible doctrine daily.

Thanks for this reminder that we must always be on guard against our true enemies.

Praise be to Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who has already defeated the Devil. It is the old, toothless lions that go about roaring. It scares the prey away! We should remember that Satan has NO power over us and never will again. We are to reckon ourselves dead to sin and the temptations we think can overwhelm us. They cannot and he cannot! In Christ, there is VICTORY.
