TODAY’S PROPHETIC THOUGHT
Don’t be deceived! You are more than you see in the mirror. God calls you a mighty warrior – a conqueror who makes the devil cower and flee. Send him packing to the pit of hell. Bring goodness into all situations and point to Jesus!
A WARRIOR SPIRIT
Don’t act surprised by the headlines. The Bible told you persecution is coming in America against those of us who demonstrate God’s goodness.
I didn’t say persecution was coming to America because it’s coming from within America against its own Christian community. Look at the news, social media and entertainment. Jesus’ followers are being called evildoers when we are not.
We are the white hats, the good guys bringing real hope to generations of lost people. Know this: the good guys are warriors!
The enemy and those under his dark influence need to defame Christians so he can remove any influence we have over the culture. Though it’s hard to endure, this is part of the end times agenda and it is necessary. Why? Because true Christ-followers need to be set apart from the world. We need to look and act different so people can choose!
As the time of Jesus’ return draws near, people will be deceived. The devil likes to substitute the truth for a lie and that lie, the Bible warns, is that the world will call good “evil” and evil will be called “good.”
It’s already happening. Soon, the world will straight-up hate good and love evil. What should you do? Hide in your home to protect yourself and your family?
Huge mistake! You and I are called to fight for the souls of those who hate us and “spitefully use us.” Step up your efforts to love people into the kingdom! The battle is at hand! War is upon us so lock and load your spiritual weapons.
And who is he who will harm you if you become followers of what is good? But even if you should suffer for righteousness’ sake, you are blessed. “And do not be afraid of their threats, nor be troubled.” But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear; having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed. – 1 Peter 3:13-16
TODAY IS A GOOD DAY TO FEAR NOT. YOU’RE CALLED TO SET CAPTIVE FREE SO DEMONSTRATE GOODNESS AND PULL THEM TO SAFETY IN JESUS’ NAME!
