Being Busy?

@ 09:17 AM (12 months, 5 days ago)
Satan called a worldwide convention of demons.

In his opening address he said,

'We can't keep people from going to pray.'

'We can't keep them from reading their holy books and knowing the truth.'

'We can't even keep them from forming an intimate relationship  with their GOD.'

'Once they gain that connection with GOD, our power over them is broken.'

'So let them go to their prayers; let them have their covered dish  dinners,

BUT steal their time, so they don't have time to develop a relationship with GOD..'

'This is what I want you to do,' said the devil:

'Distract them from gaining hold of their GOD and maintaining that
vital connection throughout their day!'

'How shall we do this?' his demons shouted.

'Keep them busy in the non-essentials of life and invent innumerable schemes to occupy
their minds,' he answered.

'Tempt them to spend, spend, spend, and borrow, borrow, borrow.'

'Persuade the wives to go to work for long hours and the husbands to work 6-7 days
each week, 10-12 hours a day, so they can afford their empty  lifestyles.'

'Keep them from spending time with their children.'

'As their families fragment, soon, their homes will offer no  escape   from the pressures of work!'

'Over-stimulate their minds so that they cannot hear that still, small voice.'

'Entice them to play the radio or cassette player whenever they drive.

' To keep the TV, VCR, CDs and their PCs going constantly in their home and see to it that every
store and restaurant in the world plays  non-GOD music constantly.'

'This will jam their minds and break that union with God.'

'Fill the coffee tables with magazines and newspapers.'

'Pound their minds with the news 24 hours a day.'

'Invade their driving moments with billboards.'

'Flood their mailboxes with junk mail, mail order catalogs,  sweepstakes, and every
kind of newsletter and promotional offering free products, services and false hopes..'

'Keep skinny, beautiful models on the magazines and TV so their  husbands will believe that outward
beauty is what's important.'

'That will fragment their families quickly!''Give them distractions to distract them
from teaching their    >>>children the real meaning of life.'

'Even in their recreation, let them be excessive.' 'Have them return from their recreation
exhausted.'

'Keep them too busy to go out in nature and reflect on God's creation.

Send them to amusement parks, sporting events, plays, concerts, and movies instead.'

'Keep them busy, busy, busy!'

'And when they meet for spiritual fellowship, involve them in  gossip and small talk so that
they leave with troubled consciences. '

'Crowd their lives with so many good causes they have no time to seek power from GOD.'

'Soon they will be working in their own strength, sacrificing their health and family
for the good of the cause.'

'It will work!'

'It will work!'

It was quite a plan!

The demons went eagerly to their assignments causing people everywhere to get busier and
more rushed, going here and there.

Having little time for their God or their families.

Having no time to tell others about the power of GOD to change  lives.

I guess the question is, has the devil been successful in his schemes?

You be the judge!!!!!

Does 'BUSY' mean: B-eing U-nder S-atan's
Y-oke?
