“First off I would have to say that I am so saddened that we live in a day and age as to where people think that they’re proclaiming and spreading the gospel of Christ Jesus our Lord..but all the while there spreading nothing more than hate..condemnation, fear, and doubt..so just a very short while ago in the grocery store there I stood face to face with the enemy..this lady stood there before me telling me all about how I was going to go to hell for wearing the clothes that I had on my back..that I was not living in the will of God for my life..and that I was blinded and spiritually blinded by this world..that I needed to be holy and that I should not cause any man to lust after me..so as I stood there I ever so paitently waited and did not interrupt this lady..all the while she continues to tell me and ask of me if I was a christian and if I went to church..so on and on she went until then she reached forth and grabbed my jacket..it was my Harley Davidson jacket that I had on..and she says if I were to ever go to Africa where she is from and if I wore that I would be miserable..because there it’s hot while here it’s cold..but she goes on to say that if I would have done my homework and if I do my homework I would know that..making a reference to the items of clothing that I wear..so I did let this lady speak..and as I said all the while thinking to myself..what if I didn’t know the Lord?..what if I was not spiritually minded?..what if this was the only time I heard the gospel?..well, the so called gospel that she was trying to preach to me..and my heart sank so much in dispair because this lady was not in the will of God..nor was she saying anything in regards to helping me as a child of God..so I said to this lady..Ma’am I am under grace..God’s grace..and not at all am I under law..Amen..and as far as holiness unto my Lord…I live daily pleasing my Father..for I know that if I were to die, Yes, Ma’am I am going to heaven..and that if a man were lusting or going to lust regardless of what clothing I had on then the man would lust..Amen..so I proceed to say to this lady that God looks at my heart where man looks at the outward..1 Samuel 16:7..and that God if He is dealing with someone to be any way He will let them know..but to rudely take up someone’s time and spread that bunch of mess all over was the worst thing ever..because it did not help nothing..and it was not peaceable..and it was so full of confusion..and our God is not the God of confusion..But he is the God of peace..1 Corinthians 14:33..but as well I let her know that there are many things out there in this world that need to be dealt with..and the particular item or items that a person is wearing is not particularly one of them..Amen..so I blessed this lady..and her two children that were there with her..and I walked away praying unto my Lord that every word that was spoken against me and my life would be shaken off..In Jesus name..so my final thought tonight to each of you, is do you have enough in you to be able to stand against that ole devil..because you see guys the word says we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against rulers and wickedness in high places..against rulers of the darkness of this world..therefore the Lord says to put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to quench all them fiery darts of the wicked one..Ephesians 6:12-17..Amen..for it is no game..for we live in a fallen world..so be ready for the battle guys,  always be ready if by chance you meet face to face that ole enemy of our very souls..for we win by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of God being spoken out from our mouths..so know Jesus..and recognize His voice..for He says He’s voice we would know..and that the voice of a stranger we would not follow..John 10:5..Amen..see the word is our sword..so be sure to know it and be sure to always be using it..for it is God’s word that cuts like a two-edged sword..Hebrews 4:12..and it’s Gods word that goes forth and will not return void..but will go forth to accomplish what it was sent forth to accomplish..so read..pray..and know the word..and know that you know the Lord is with you..and that, that ole devil is a liar and the father of them all..John 8:44..so be prepared and be watchful always..don’t get caught off guard..for it tells us in God’s word for us to be sober, be vigilant; because our adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour..1 Peter 5:8..so let us be ready..and let us always be prepared, never letting that ole devil devour us and who we are in Christ Jesus our Lord…In His name, Jesus’ name,  I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
