The Thief’s Purpose Is To Steal, And Kill, And Destroy.
My Purpose
Is To Give Them A Rich And Satisfying Life.
He is our enemy. Our spouse is not our enemy. Satan is our enemy. He wants to destroy our marriage, our relationships, and he is constantly at war against the most important, the most valuable things in our lives. Please Read On …
Scripture
10 The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.
Observation
Satan
is a thief and a liar. The scriptures also describe him as a deceiver, angel of
light, destroyer, adversary, enemy, accuser, murderer, tempter, wicked one, and
the list goes on but I have given him enough attention.
He
is our enemy. Our spouse is not our enemy. Satan is our enemy. He wants to
destroy our marriage, our relationships, and he is constantly at war against
the most important, the most valuable things in our lives.
So
wake up!
Jesus
Christ’s purpose is just the opposite. He wants us to enjoy a rich and
satisfying life, a life filled with meaning and purpose.
So
wake up!
Stop
believing Satan’s lies.
What
does God say? What does God say in His Word? Just look at all of God’s
promises!
If
you have been believing lies whispered into your head and you think that you
are better off believing them rather than believing the Truth then you have
been hoodwinked, you have been tricked and the great deceiver has you right
where he wants you.
It
is the thief’s purpose. He wants to steal, kill, and destroy you and your
family.
Today
you and I have a choice. We turn to God and trust what He says in His Word or
we listen to the enemy’s lies, reject God’s Word and we continue on the road to
destruction.
Application
I
can be pretty hardheaded sometimes but this choice even for this knucklehead is
a no-brainer I choose to live for Jesus Christ and follow His Word the best
that I can.
How
about you?
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, it breaks my heart to watch men make terrible choices day after day
after day. I will continue to pray for them. I will never give up. They have
been deceived by the evil one. They have given in to his temptations. They
actually believe that they are better off living for him rather than living for
You. It is crazy.
You tell me in Your Word to pray for them, (If you see a fellow believer sinning in a way
that does not lead to death, you should pray, and God will give that person
life. 1 John 5:16) so I will continue to pray. Open up their eyes Lord soon
before they completely destroy themselves and everyone else around them.
