Basic HTML Version
on the throne of the earth where God placed him when he was the
super-archangel Lucifer. He was "perfect in all his ways from
the day he was created" (Ezek. 28:15) UNTIL he turned to REBELLION
and became Satan the devil. But he is still the "prince of the
power of the air," and he still invisibly RULES THIS WORLD,
unrealized by those he has deceived! He will continue to find
other ways to attack this WORK OF THE LIVING GOD! He has attacked
me personally, through false accusers and persecutors, ever since
God started using me some half century ago. He attacked the
Church as a whole in the attorney general's lawsuit. He will
find other ways to falsify and discredit this Work, BECAUSE it
is the Work of the living GOD--and BECAUSE Satan knows his time
is now short!
I often think, if I were an entertainer, or a star in "show
business," I would not be persecuted. Companies and corporations
in "show business" or even financial or industrial business are
seldom persecuted or falsely attacked by enemies seeking to destroy
them.
Jesus said, "IF ye were of this world, the world would love
its own," but, "if they have persecuted me, they will persecute
you!"
We must not think the WAR (Satan's war against us) is over,
just because we have won a significant battle. KEEP PRAYING
for the Work and keep praying for me, as I pray daily for YOU!
Remember to keep your part in God's Work going generously and
regularly.
With much love, in Jesus' name,
