We were born in sin, grew up in it, and having nothing better to do,
we followed the desires of our hearts in a world ruled by sin.
We had “peace”, the “peace” the world offers when we obey it,
and in return for our obedience… The world loves us!
Inside of us there is no fighting, because as we know, it takes two
to tango, therefore, we cannot fight against ourselves.
Everything was O. K. then, somebody comes talking us about God!
Talking about getting rid of sin, and begin a new life, with Christ!
Immediately, the devil gets himself on guard!
The “world” tries to convince us there is nothing better than the
desires of our heart obtaining the material things it offers us, and then…
Inside of us begins… A SPIRITUAL WARFARE!
The spiritual warfare starts when we feel inside, the urge to know God!
When we begin thinking that life in this world is not all there is!
When we begin understanding that after death, THERE IS LIFE!
And this life could be obtained by believing that God sent his Son
to give us this life eternal when we believe, and obey Him!
To know God is very important, but, more important is to obey Him!
We have been obeying the spirit of sin for so long we can remember,
mow that we are trying to obey God and the warfare began, we have
to be sure on which side we are standing! We cannot fight on both sides!
We cannot say we love God and keep obeying the devil hating people!
We have to demonstrate our love for Christ obeying Him!
Are we fighting for God? Or against Him!
When we accept Christ and invite Him to live in us, the war is won!
Even that we continue suffering the worlds hate!
IT IS FINNISHED! Said Christ when He was dying at the cross!
John 19-30.
He won the war for us! The war against sin, Victory against death!
Conquering eternal life for everyone who wants to receive Him!
The “peace” of the world was obtained neglecting Christ!
The Peace of Christ is obtained by inviting Him to enter in your heart!
“I am leaving you with a gift, peace of mind and heart;
And the peace I give isn’t fragile like the peace the world gives.
So don’t be troubled and afraid.” John 14-27.
PRAISE THE LORD!
