Along the
way were signs posted by God for each path and each venture and each step of
life, but sometimes we don't read too well when blinded by youth and passion
pain and mistreatment
lies and self indulgence.
Blinded
by living in the realm of the enemy without the power and authority to shake
him off.
At one
place along the way of life God put the sign STOP
But someone close to you, tricked you, and put a sign over the sign that God placed for you - full
speed ahead.
At one
juncture in your life, God put up the sign DEAD END,
But someone went ahead of you and covered over that sign with the
sign, pleasure ahead.
At one
place on the road of life God put up the sign, TURN RIGHT,
But someone turned that sign around and you turned left.
Everything
that God warns you of, your enemy invites you to.
And
everything that God invites you to, your enemy warns you of.
It’s no
wonder that it took so long for some of us to turn our lives around. And it’s no wonder that so many, so very many
haven’t.
In a
world with an enemy like satan, loose, roaming the streets, searching out the
spiritually blind and those who have lost focus, it is no wonder that the
battle has at times seemed meaningless and impossible.
2
Corinthians 4:3-4
3. But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them
that are lost:
4. In
whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe
not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God,
should shine unto them."
