Words From the Well!
by
Peggie C. Bohanon
It's pretend time--Halloween is in the air! There's goblins and ghosts, witches and warriors, imps and imposters--but hold on to your mask a minute! The celebration of Halloween is not as pretend as you think. There's real evil behind it all, and it's about time we unmask the great pretender for who he is! Matter of fact, one of his allies was in my chat room last night, with all of his bold and brazen vulgarity--Christians prayed and I blocked as fast as I could! We live in an evil world....let's arise as Christians and tell it like it is. Satan is god of this world...but he's NOT God....he's a pretender, that's all...but he's duping the world around us. Come with me to the Well...Jesus is there--and it's time for the unmasking!Are you living in a world of pretend? Let the great pretender trick you no longer, for his bag of tricks is full of poison. Candy for the senses--and death for the soul! It's not worth it--wise up--tear off the devil's mask of deception from your blinded eyes and meet the Great Provider--the One who alone can give you REAL love, joy and peace. His Name is JESUS, and HE'S for real!
A Helping Word...or Two! Pretender of Love! We live in a love-sick world! It's not love--it's lust, and it's on the screen and in the sewer; it sells books and bargains--it's everywhere! Ask our teens who fight temptation every day. Ask our adults who do the same. Ask the search engines--"seek and ye shall find" is not just a Biblical phrase anymore! Evil, sin, illicit sex, perversion--losing the virginity of kids, lessening the worth of women and leeching the hearts of men--it's Halloween every day, and it's NO party!
Well, it's NOT the real thing...it's pretend! Jesus Christ brings real love to the human soul. He blesses real love between a husband and a wife. He brings real love in families and real caring in friends--for He IS love. He's the source and satisfaction for every hunger of the human condition. HIS love is no pretense--it's for real and it can be yours!
Pretender of Joy! We live in a laughing world! It's on the late-night shows and in the bars; it sells videos and vice--it's everywhere! Sin is FUN--it's free and it's forever, so drink up, enjoy life--let's party! Singles meet singles again and again--what fun and frolic! Then our blended families try to cope with what's left and bring some sense into the disorder the "fun" created! Humor abounds on the Web--and it's not all funny! Search for the smut and the sin--and you'll find it. A barrel of laughs? It sure is--the bottom of the barrel!
Well, it's NOT the real thing...it's pretend! Jesus Christ brings real joy to the human soul. He brings joy to a marriage, to a home, to a life. He fills a heart with gladness. He brings joy in worship, in His Word, and in His Will. He is the source of real joy...joy that fills the spirits and overflows the life. HIS joy is no pretense--it's for real, and it can be yours!
Pretender of Peace! We live in a light-filled world--it's getting better and better; we're evolving into a new world of peace and personal fulfillment--a "new age," and there's tapes, books and videos to prove it. There's angels to prove it too--visit some of the "angel of light" sites on the Web and you'll get all the "enlightenment" you want! If you're not discerning within your spirit, you'll be tricked--and treated to a dark deception! It's not pure peace and it's not light, not at all!For it's NOT the real thing...it's pretend! Jesus Christ brings real Light to the human soul. He is the Light of the World. He brings His light to your mind and you understand His Word. He brings His light to your soul and you live in His peace. It's a peace that lights up your heart and you live in His calm. He is the source of real peace...peace that passes understanding. HIS peace is no pretense--it's for real, and it can be yours!
...and that's just a thought or two--from my heart to yours!
His Healing Words "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but test the spirits whether they are of God; because many false prophets are gone out into the world...ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world (1 John 4:1,4 KJV).""Lord, I'm tired of living in the world of pretend. The great pretender has blinded my eyes, and I now choose to tear off his mask, and see Your glorious truth. YOU are greater--YOU are real--and I choose to serve YOU this day, In Jesus' Name. Amen."
Please e-mail me to say hi--and sign my guestbook too! Have a great day serving the Lord!
