Praise the Lord Beloved!!!
You know, for many of us there has been a thief in our life of some kind that has played us or played on us at one time or another, and will continue to play us or on us until we take off the rose colored glasses and see him/her for who they truly are. It’s fine to be optimistic “BUT” not when it starts to be the entertainment of the day, the expense of a charade, being degraded, being downgraded, and flat out played by the thief!!!
The thief is persistent in applying his/her influence (charm) in every way he/she can. In relationships, in morals, in spiritually enlightening moments, and emotional experiences, he’s/she’s always involved somehow. The reason is, it’s where he/she advances the most in the basic transactions of our soul. But knowing – understanding this reduces the chances that he/she can play you or manipulate you.
Sure, just knowing this isn’t enough. You must know him/her, his/her character and the ways he/she establishes his/her conduct.
Beloved, just step back and watch. 😀 When you see patterns in certain dynamics in people and in situations, those effects are positive clues about their cause. So, in order to make the casual connection to trap the thief, there has to be spiritual awareness within God’s people.
Let me tell you, Jesus didn’t hesitate to oust Satan when His GPS picked up Satan’s telltale qualities. He knew and call Him out by name: “That’s Satan!!!” His GPS got to blinking red and squawking for a number of reasons. If you look prudently, you’ll get a clear picture of the remorseful character you’re dealing with. Watch and learn from the master, He’s the God who lives within you. Here’s what He had to say about Satan: He/she has fatal intent, He/she lies and deceives (back stabs) to justify evil agendas, He/she practices self-interest and self-gratification at others expense, He/she uses clever deviation and interference to disregard spiritual transformation, He/she uses many words to mask his/her lack of veracity, He/she takeover or steal God’s diplomacy through man made passions and self-interest, He/she opposes the development or advancement of the gospel in one’s life.
This all translate to pure “DECEPTION!!!” That’s how the thief rolls. Amen? 😀 Aaamen. 😀
Beloved, life is very short. It comes and goes like an unannounced gust of wind. None of us know the hour or day when that gust of wind will be permitted to enter our room and blow out our earthly light. So today, reach out and touch someone and tell them you love them, BECAUSE TELLING THEM LATER JUST MIGHT BE TOO LATE.
I LOVE YOU ALL!!! Have a Blessed Tuesday Everyone. 😀
