My brothers and sisters, God's creatures which He created for making His name known and for showing them the depth of His love and grace are being told a lie everyday they are here on this earth. Most of my brothers and sisters are believing this thief which is trying to brainwash them into thinking that they mean nothing to anyone and that they are simply here to take up space and find pleasure for this moment before it is all gone. Satan is the liar and he is telling them that they will always be able to feel good if they just follow him and give in to the temptations which he presents. We act as though it is just our flesh but it is so much more than that! Satan is waging a war with our friends and we are just standing by and shaking our head acting as though it is their fault and their sin and they need to change. They are in a battle everyday and they don't even know who is fighting them. You see, he masquerades around like an angel of light the Bible says and everything he presents really does look good to our friends. The problem is not that they need to change, the problem is that we need to! Why don't we start presenting them with something that will last for eternity, with a purpose to life, with a love that will never end, with a contentment that is eternal, with a truth that is absolute?! Its time to fight him back....its time to pray to the Holy Father who has been waiting for us and to go out there and show these friends of ours who the liar is and who the Lord is! If you are reading this and you know a friend that is giving in to the lies everyday, go share with them the truth of the Gospel and the King who can take control of the situation with their surrender of it! Don't just sit there and hope that someone else comes along to do what God has placed you there to do. Why don't we start doing what God created us and planned for us to do instead of trying to enjoy life along the way in the wrong way as followers of Jesus. If anyone can destroy the devil's schemes, its the King of kings and Lord of lords. God says in His Word that if we do not obey Him in this manner, then their blood is on our hands! We are guilty for sending them to an eternity without Christ, an eternity where the liar and thief will torment them forever! It is a VERY serious matter....lets start turning our worlds around for the glory of His name and for the revealing of His truth.
I have been listening to the marriage conference held at Southern Seminary recently online at night with Emily and have been reminded that I, as a husband, have not been faithfully cherishing my wife as I ought. I was greatly challenged by C.J. Mahaney's message that stated the importance to have regular scheduled opportunities for uplifting your spouse and giving her a chance to get away from the mother personality for a short time. I was also challenged by listening to Dr. Russell Moore's message about fighting for your marriage like Christ stood against the Enemy for our good out of his steadfast love. I as a husband have been blessed with the most unequaled wife of all. There is no other woman on the planet who can come close to Emily Ruth Wynn and I need not look any further than her. She is always utterly encouraging to me and her wonderful love in my life challenges me to be the man God has called me to be. There are several things that I love about Emily. One of the ...
