Tools of Satan:
The list goes on and on, but here are a few more:
Christmas & Santa Claus - He knows when you are good or bad...the only being I know that knows all is God.
I could go on about Santa, and the true story about him, but we have more to cover.
ore tools of Satan:
Anything that comes between you and God is a sin, and is used by Satan to do just that.
Break the cycle. Turn the TV off, and open the Bible and read it, and listen for God's voice.
I could go on, there are so many things Satan uses for tools to distract us and get us off into areas we do not belong. So my prayer for you is that this chain is broken and you hear God's voice in your life.
God Bless You as you hear His words and follow His leading.
The tools Satan has to use are many. First we will look at those he uses to hurt us spiritually. There is television (tell - a - vision). Who's vision is it we are allowing in?
Look at a child and how it is molded by its surroundings. We are the same way; just because we are not
children, and are adults does not mean we are not still being molded. God calls us His children (Romans 8:16). God also refers to our spirit. Paul tells us we are fed spiritually.
Read Corinthians I - II, and Galatians, especially chapters 4 - 5 in Galatians.
So if we are children of God, we are still children and we are still being molded. As we watch tell - a - vision, who's vision do we get? If I am wrong so are all the advertisers who spend millions every year on TELL - A - VISION.
So, who is right? If the advertisers are, and they must be (or how could they continue to spend all that money, unless it is paying off), then who's vision? Hollywood's! The people who make up less than 1 tenth of 1 percent of our population tell the rest of us how life is or should be. They tell us what to like and not like. What to buy and sell, how to buy and sell. They tell us how bad or good the world is. They make us prejudiced, hate, jealous, and all because we allow it. Read Galatians Ch 4 and see what spirits we are allowing into our spirit.
Oh yes, you are being suckered by Hollywood, the movies, sitcoms, series, they are all written and performed by people you never met and do not know God. Would you allow just anyone to baby sit your children? You wouldn't. Then why let them be influenced by someone you never met, namely the writers, producers, and stars of tell - a - vision, and the movies?!
y 11 year old daughter has always known the truth about Santa, and she has even better Christmases. Mainly because the comercialism is removed, but also because she knows how much we love her, and her presents are not from a strange old man, but her family.
Are you starting to get the picture? How about the fact that you are programable. Oh yes you are. How do you know 2+2 = 4 and not 5, because you were programed as were the teachers who taught you. Who programed them?
You see, we are influenced by our surroundings, and if you do not think you are, look at what you buy and how you buy it, look at what you have in your house. Adam and Eve were tempted and sinned just by one fruit. How much more today does Satan have to keep us from God? He keeps us so busy we do not have time for God. Isn't that really what happened in the garden? Adam believed the lie and sinned. Aren't we doing the same, by thinking we are too busy?
