Exodus 20:20 “Don’t be afraid,” Moses answered them, “for God has come in this way to test you, and so that your fear of him will keep you from sinning!”
Why do you think your enemy has expended so much energy, has dedicated so many years, to convince you that I am not real? Why do you think it has been so important to convince my children that I am a myth, made up by weak people who need something to tell them how to live, a series of laws and rules that allow horrible people to judge others? Why so important to remove me from every aspect of everyday life? Why get me out of schools, government, laws, etc.? Because I am all powerful. All knowing. I AM. And your enemy knows that if you recognize, if you really come to know who I am and what I am capable of, that if you really believed in my existence – you would fear me and obey me. Look around you. I am mocked. You are hated. So many refuse to believe I am real. And in not believing I exist, all parameters for appropriate behavior are removed. You shake your head in disbelief at the increasing level of accepted evils in your world, but why does this surprise you? I am not in much of your world, so the doors are wide open to increasing levels of debauchery, to more violence, to less humane treatment of others, to telling lies and stealing and robbing and physical attacks, and bullying and murder and more and more and more. Where there are no boundaries for morality, life becomes an amorphous pool of evil. It surrounds, penetrates, inhabits, directs – everything. Everyone. You swim in evil. You breathe it in and it moves throughout every aspect of your life. You who know me, who follow me, you battle against it. You reject it. You invite me in to dispel it. But, it is still everywhere in your world right now. So do not be shocked. Do not be dismayed. It is the state of your world today. But, as you are aware, I am real. I AM. And though you suffer some lost battles, the war continues and, as your enemy knows well, its ending has already been determined and he loses. In the meantime, fight against his campaign to divert as many of my children away from me as he can in the time he has left. Speak Truth. Spread Light. Represent me. And do not fear. I have overcome and I am in you.
