im just gonna go straight to it. when u feel something is not right, whether in your ministry or life or relationships etc etc, it IS not right! redundant? cliche? whatever u call it but this is something almost everyone doesnt seem to realise. because just when they are abt to wake up, they suffer from something called the numbing sensation, courtesy of the devil himself. when u feel something is gg astray, and u know its not your natural sinful deceitful heart, thats the conviction of God. but that conviction can be easily superceded by the devil's doing.
HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? is the devil better than GOD? u wish. all the other demons in the world wish. naturally that is nv possible because God is omnipotent and because... well HE IS GOD. but we make it possible how? when we start to get caught up w the things of the world rather than the things of God. worldly things like sin, secular music, ungodly behavior and speech, o the list goes on. and when we start to enjoy it more because it brings abt more 'satisfaction' and 'fufilment' mainly because we are too lazy to seek after God and instead SETTLE for second best/actually the worst and start to convince ourselves its the best we can do.
Example time: which story do we like better? Sam Worthington saving the planet Pandora or Jesus saving our planet Earth? which had more impact visually and emotionally? last question, which one was real? think abt it ehh
next example: what do we like better? people singing abt girls and sex and booze and being emo or people singing abt how God has changed their lives, even putting it into verses and choruses that mirror our very lives or at the very least set a good example for ours? yes the other songs may sound nice, whatever happened to not judging a book by its cover. the music is the initial attraction, dun let it be the main fatal attraction and let the lyrics seep into your subconscious mind. BE ALERT! be motivated by the right lyrics and even the right purpose of the song.
what is my point exactly? what u glory in, u will eventually be caught up in. and what u are caught up in will be eventually what u believe. thats the way the devil will numb u. because slowly, u will lean towards the world's opinion rather than God's, the world's standards rather than God's> and slowly u dun feel anything for the things of God, the wrath of God etc etc. u become numbed to the things of God. and its a slow and sure process. the worst is u realise it and u may not even be bothered in the slightest.
time to be sensitive again. time to wake up and time to go back to foundational truths of our christianity.dun let the devil numb u. its a painless process thus u will nv resist it. so pray for God's conviction and His Holy Spirit to guide u, to make it hurt.when u dun feel anything anymore, its easier to hurt u without u knowing at all. its easier for the devil to take off from you the armor of God. the best thing is that he will lead u to decide to take it all off.
when smth is not right. its not right. make it right. dun ignore it. or it'll become a habit. a devilish habit. dun numb yourself. dun let the devil numb u. BE SENSITIVE TO THE THINGS OF GOD. make the effort. its a matter of life and death. its a matter of your eternal fate. think and ponder.
