Spiritual
darkness has come upon this world like a spiritual tsunami! Our struggles in
the spirit realm have spilled over into our physical world and invariably
affect our way of life. It is a serious matter to exclude God from our daily
lives. That is what has transpired in many nations including the United States.
God has been legislated out of our schools, governments, and public arenas. It
is there that truth and justice should be promoted and encouraged. We have
allowed our leaders to prohibit the mention of God in our public places and
then wonder why our world is in such a mess. We have excluded God and He has
left us to our own devices and the consequences of governing in the flesh.
Satan
has silently done his work. We did not recognize the evil he intended and
unwittingly became a partaker of his evil scheme. But we cannot go silently
into the night. Even at this late hour, we must draw attention to the evil and
avarice in this world! We must take a stand for truth and righteousness! We
must actively and purposefully push back against the darkness.
Matt.
5:14, “Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be
hid. 15Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a
candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. 16Let your
light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your
Father which is in heaven.”
What
has happened to the light? Where are God’s Champions for Truth and
Righteousness? Jude 1:3, “Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you
of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort
you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered
unto the saints.” Instead of being separated from the world to be a light to
the world, the world has been assimilated into the churches. When we rely more
on the planning and production models that we have observed in the world than
on the revelation and anointing of the Holy Spirit, how can we expect people to
be enlightened and changed? Can we really expect lives to be convicted of sin
and changed in repentance and regeneration without the leading and anointing of
the Holy Spirit?
Why do we fall back on the arm of the flesh? Because it is the easier route. With the abundance of resources, anyone can develop their own program or plan. However, for the revelation and the anointing of the Holy Ghost, we must go to God’s Word and take time to be alone with God and His Word. We must bury our faces into the carpet on the floor and cry out to God with everything that is within us, fervently seeking God to send His fire among us to address the needs of a lost and dying world. God alone has the solution. Jesus Christ is the answer! Push Back Against The Darkness!
