GOOD and Evil

Have you ever stopped to think about all of creation and acknowledged that everything in creation plays an assigned part in human life? God created all the plants, animals, the seas and oceans all of which were to our benefit in some way. We have herbs, plants and fruit that God created with the intention to nourish and heal our bodies in various ways, long before medicines were created. People who practice evil have used some of these same creations to harm others because the enemy knows the anointing placed within each of God’s creations is powerful and irreversible. The same is to be said about the advancements God has allowed with mankind. Every good thing created by man was first a thought or vision given by God to serve a greater plan. Technology has made it possible for millions of people to be blessed with a word shared across the world instantly. Yet the same technology has made it possible for groups to plan and execute crimes that affect the lives of hundreds simultaneously. So, if Satan and his crew are always busy trying to use everything God creates in an effort to harm or destroy, it stands to reason he does the same to us.

Think about it for a moment and I’ll bet every time you have a beautiful experience or something works in your favor, there is something or someone who comes along to try to rain on your parade. When you are excited about something that just happened, someone says or does something to upset you, right? When you accomplish a goal or are right at the point of accomplishing it, you’re suddenly faced with an obstacle that tries discourage you, right? It’s nothing more than satan’s attempt to make you not see God’s goodness and faithfulness. He wants to discredit God and all His creation. He wants to use blessings to destroy the blessed. But it’s not possible with a believer. As a child of the Almighty God, you must always remind yourself that the enemy is a deceiver. He wants to change how you see things and make you think opposite of what God is unfolding for your benefit. And he certainly does not want you to use your gifts, talents and visions to be a benefit to this world. Don’t let him deceive you. Each time he tries to cloud your vision, close your physical eyes and give God some praise for what He is doing in your life. Your praise will allow your spiritual eyes to reveal what’s beyond the cloud. Give God all the praise in everything and watch your praise clear things up for you. You will stand in victory every single time.
