MIRACLES NEVER CEASE!
Rev. Robert L. Wise, Ph.D. explores the world of divine interventions from an objective point of view. An Archbishop in the Communion of Evangelical Episcopal Churches with a Ph.D., Rev. Wise relates his interviews with persons who experienced the touch of God.
ATTACK TIME!
In the previous exploration of how evil affects people, we discovered that one of the strategies that every last one of us faces is personal attack. The demonic world has your name and knows almost more about you than you know about yourself. Evil is perpetually after YOU.
Yeah, I know that sounds like Halloween, but it is a fact. The Scripture warns us to be aware. “Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” (Ist Peter 5:8) In previous generations, we took this as a general warning to put in the back of our mind for extreme circumstances. I’m sorry to tell that the extreme circumstances are here!
We are now witnessing a renewed attack of evil across the world in all institutions and under every circumstance. Hate to tell you… but that includes YOU.
So, how can you know when Evil has you in the gun sights? Last week we explored how our thinking can be attacked. Let’s add to that list.
A slow creeping feeling begins to grow in your mind and you feel drawn to something that you know is wrong. The urge becomes stronger until you finally act in a way that you know you shouldn’t. How does Evil begin an attack on you? By using the insignificant as a weapon.
I once had a Roman Catholic nun come to me for help because she was haunted by something she had done in the 2nd grade. She stole a friend’s pencil and that opened a door to being haunted by evil virtually ever since. Didn’t amount to anything but the action didn’t leave her mind – for years. Sound silly? Not to a struggling good woman. The Evil One used her kind heart and sincerity as an opening for attack. A little thing stuck in her conscience and grew into a monster. Strange but makes the point. Starts small; grows bigger. Finally, defeats.
Everyday we feel urges like “cheat on your income tax, stretch the truth, take more than you have coming to you, tell a little lie, just cheat a little on a test, on and on.” You tell yourself that it can’t hurt you and no one will know anyway. Google your next-door neighbor and feel lust, become so angry you are ready to do a former friend bodily harm etc. etc… Eventually that little thought begins growing.
Take a look at your life and develop the list of what is pulling on you when you know the action is wrong.
Sound small? Sure. That’s how it all beings. Remember that old song “Little Things Mean A lot.” Evil certainly does and begins attacking us with what is trivial. The Apostle Peter offered this advice. “Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you. Be self-controlled and alert (Ist Peter 5:7-8). That’s an important way you can avoid “attack time.”
Remember miracles never cease.
