Read this Satan called a worldwide convention of demons. In his opening address he said, We cant keep Christians from going to church. We cant keep them from reading their Bibles and knowing the truth. We cant even keep them from forming an intimate relationship with their savior. Once they gain that connection with Jesus, our power over them is broken. So let them go to their churches; let them have their covered dish dinners, but steal their time, so they dont have time to develop a prayer life and a relationship with Jesus Christ. This is what I want you to do, said the devil; Distract them from gaining hold of their Savior and maintaining that vital connection throughout their day! How shall we do this? his demons shouted. Keep them busy in the nonessentials of life and invent innumerable schemes to occupy their minds, he answered. Tempt them to spend, spend, spend, and borrow, borrow, borrow. Persuade the wives to go to work for long hours and the husbands to work 6-7 days each week, 10-12 hours a day, so they can afford their empty lifestyles. Keep them from spending time with their children. Keep the kids occupied with violent video games and TV shows. As their families fragment, soon, their homes will offer no escape from the pressures of work! Over-stimulate their minds so that they cannot hear that still, small voice. Entice them to play the radio or cassette player whenever they drive...To keep the TV, VCR, CDs and their PCs going constantly in their home and see to it that every store and restaurant in the world plays non-biblical music constantly. This will jam their minds and keep them away from prayer time. Fill the coffee tables with magazines and newspapers. Pound their minds with the news 24 hours a day. Invade their driving moments with billboards. Flood their mailboxes with junk mail, mail order catalogs, sweepstakes, and every kind of newsletter and promotional offering free products, services and false hopes. Keep skinny, emaciated models on the magazine covers for Christian women to buy. Convince them that they are not beautiful. Make them insecure. Convince their husbands that outward beauty is whats important, so that theyll become dissatisfied with their wives. Bring discord. Bring tension, arguments, stress, kids fighting, husbands and wives arguing about money...That will fragment their families quickly! Even in their recreation, let them be excessive. Have them return from their recreation exhausted. Keep them too busy to go out in nature and reflect on Gods creation. Send them to amusement parks, sporting events, plays, concerts, and movies instead. Keep them busy, busy, busy! And when they meet for Bible fellowship, involve them in gossip and small talk so that they leave with troubled consciences. Crowd their lives with so many good causes they have no time to spend time with Jesus. Soon they will be working in their own strength, sacrificing their health and family for the good of the cause. It will work! It will work!, the demons shouted. It was quite a plan! The demons went eagerly to their assignments causing Christians everywhere to get more busy and more rushed, going here and there. Having little time for their God or their afamilies. Having no time to tell others the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. I guess the question is, has the devil been successful at his scheme? You be the judge! Does busy mean: B-eing U-nder S-atans Y-oke? Please share this with your friends, if you arent too BUSY!
