(Acts 19:8)

Satan brings the world a message that is designed to kill, steal, and
destroy lives. He has NO FEAR in presenting that message as boldly as he is
able to. Yet we, those who have placed our faith in Christ, who have the
ONLY true message of everlasting life, who have the ONLY message of hope for
this hurting and lost world, meekly, almost ashamedly, present our message
in the most low-key form possible! WHY?????? I actually got mad that if
satan can be so diabolical and relentless in trying to destroy peoples
lives, why can't we be as relentless in trying to SAVE people's lives???

Satan knows the weaknesses of man. He has man's nature down to a science.
Greed, sex, alcohol, drugs, gambling, food are the most base weaknesses. So
satan uses the modern day media to flaunt his message of "greed is good,"
sex is great any way that you can get it no matter what form it takes,
alcohol is socially acceptable, drugs are the "in thing," gambling is just
harmless entertainment, and food is a necessity of life that we should enjoy
no matter how much of it we eat.

These messages permeate the world that we live in. We are bombarded
endlessly with them by the media to a point that we accept them as fact.
Satan knows that this strategy works because there will be nobody bold
enough to counter or challenge his message. His message in the mainstream
media goes mostly unchallenged. HE REALIZES THAT VERY FEW CHRISTIANS IN A
SECULAR FORUM WILL CHALLENGE WHAT HE SAYS!

The FACT IS, greed is NOT good, it is evil. Sex is designed ONLY in the
confines of marriage. Alcohol affects your brain and is a crutch that many
turn to, to numb their way thru life. Drugs are an escape from reality that
will destroy you. Gambling is a misuse of the resources that God has
entrusted to you and is poor stewardship. Food is necessary, but only when
you consume the right kinds of food and the right amounts. Who out there is
telling THIS SIDE, the TRUE SIDE, GOD'S SIDE of this story to the world at
large???? Answer...not many!!!!

My friend, it is time for God's people to stand up, to say, "DEVIL, ENOUGH
IS ENOUGH." Our churches are just as much to blame!!! Many don't even deal
with the needs of their congregations, let alone the world outside the doors
of the church. It is time to stand up and accept the responsibility God has
given to those in leadership, those who call themselves Christians, and take
His message of hope and everlasting life through Jesus Christ to this lost
and sin-filled world. How can the devil be so bold with lies, and God's
people so timid with the truth????

Jesus in MANY parables told us that
our time is short, we must be busy about our Father's business. Now is the
time to be aggressive. Now is the time when those who God has placed in
roles of leadership must be willing to sacrifice all to take HIS message to
this world at large. EVEN IF IT MEANS LOSING ALL THAT WE HAVE. We can
never lose everything when we have Jesus!!!!

The fact is, what we have is simply given to us by God to further His
Kingdom, NOT to create our own personal fiefdoms.

God is calling YOU today to be bold. Look around you. How bold is satan
with a message of destruction? How much bolder should YOU be with a message
of everlasting life? DO NOT LET THESE WORDS GO UNHEEDED TODAY. GOD IS
CALLING ME AND YOU TO A LEVEL OF BOLDNESS LIKE NEVER BEFORE.


It is time to take on the same mindset of satan in regard to presenting our
message. Satan has no fear, there are no limits to him. We must operate
the same way. We must never tire, never lose sight of who the real audience
is..the lost in this world!!! We must get outside the comfort zone of the
existing church, Christian community, and be bold enough, creative enough,
to share the message of hope and faith in Christ with this lost and hurting
world. Now is the time, today is the day. Time is short!!! A lost and
hurting world is waiting to hear the TRUTH!!!

Let this word today be a wake-up call to pastors, those who work in
ministry. Let this also be a wake-up call to YOU. Just because others
choose to stay within the safety of the Christian community, does not mean
God is not calling you TO THE WORLD THAT YOU LIVE IN TO MINISTER. It is
time to "think outside of the box", quit doing what is comfortable, and
start making some noise in the world at large as we proudly, and boldly
proclaim that Jesus Christ is the ONLY way, the ONLY truth, the ONLY life,
and the ONLY way to God! HE is the answer all men and women worldwide seek!
God gave you this life to serve and glorify Him. We only get one chance to
make a difference. God is calling YOU today to share the GOSPEL with the
world!

IF SATAN IS SO BOLD WITH A LIE, HOW MUCH BOLDER SHOULD WE BE WITH THE
TRUTH!!! SATAN IS RELENTLESS IN DESTROYING THE LIVES OF PEOPLE, WE HAVE TO
BE JUST AS RELENTLESS IN SAVING THE LIVES OF PEOPLE WITH THE TRUTH OF GOD'S
WORD!!!

Father,

I come before you now and ask that you continue to give angelofthelord your insight and wisdom with words to share with us. They are much needed in this time of birthpains that the earth is going thru. Continue to annoint her and sanctify her words that they may reach as many as you would have them reach. May her words reach the hearts of those who already know you so they may continue to hunger and thirst for doing your will. I ask these things in the name of JESUS CHRIST. AMEN.
