Peter 5:8, “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the
devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same
afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.”
The
devil is like a wild animal seeking to devour you. He is attempting
to destroy everything and everyone associated with God. The spirit of
Antichrist is becoming stronger as each day passes. His followers are
becoming more vocal and more active. Their goal is to destroy
everything affiliated with Jesus Christ. This is the rise of the last
day's influence of Satan setting the stage for the beast in the
prophecy of Daniel and in the prophecy of John in the book of
Revelation.
This
conflict between good and evil has manifest itself through the
centuries with an ebb and flow of severity. However, the consequences
of the conflict can be directly related to the rebellion of man
against the laws and sovereignty of God. This is a conflict between
the Light of Heaven and the powers of Darkness. Satan’s war has
always been against the Sovereignty of Almighty God and the man of
flesh is his pawn in this conflict.
Although
times of evil and darkness have gripped the earth in centuries past,
the grand finale is still to come. Satan is preparing for his last
stand. He knows his end and will do everything in his power to
destroy all he can. He has targeted world governments, world leaders,
Christian leaders, Christian churches, families, and individuals. His goal is to destroy order and control. He wants to
create total chaos.
The
course of human history is directly related to the willingness of
mankind to seek after and follow the sovereign will of God. In recent
years we have seen a digression from Biblical morals and values and a
more rapid deviation from Biblical principles in the past decade.
This behavior has brought us to where we are as a nation and a world
community. The consequences of rebellion will rule eternity. How we
respond to the voice of God will determine our future and the future
of all who will hear us. We must understand where we are on God’s
timetable! We must remain alert and watchful to escape the
cataclysmic events just ahead! Sound the alarm!!!
