Go Away, or I Shall Taunt You a Second Time

God is freaking me out again.

I went to my weekly prayer meeting this morning. The other guys kept talking about scriptures and ideas that had been on my mind in recent weeks. They talked about things I have been thinking about over the last couple of days. Over and over, they seemed to read my mind.

I told them they had to knock it off. That was humor, however.

I keep thinking about the concept of strongholds, and more generally, about doing to Satan what he does to us. He has strongholds, so we should have strongholds. He uses plagues and blights and locusts to ruin our lives, so we should be his plagues and blights and locusts and ruin his life. He lures people into false religions through the promise of supernatural power, so we should fight him with God’s greater supernatural power.

For all his pride, he has never had a thought of his own. We can learn a lot by looking at the tools he stole. We can take them back and use them against him. Turn yourself into a stronghold, and fire into Satan’s kingdom from cover.

God is a creator. Satan is just an imitator. Hey, let’s put that on a shirt.

My newest Cafepress thing is a T-shirt with the world “STRONGHOLD” in the pocket area. That says it all, as far as I’m concerned.

    There is great power in prayer, power to keep Satan at bay or out of your “stronghold”.

    My Dad is best described as agnostic so I pray double for him, it must work because he has cheated death so many times with my family and others praying for his recovery.

    Thanks to you and your readers for all the prayers and thoughts, the heart cath was as good as could be expected and due to the great knowledge and expertise of the Doctors and medical device manufacturer Medtronics he is still here and doing better.

    Small world, Blindshooter. About a decade ago, I had back surgery with a Medtronic implant for fusion. Helped tremendously; I went from in serious pain most of the day to mostly pain free or low pain. A miracle!

    While I am not religious, I am certain I gain from reading what Steve and others have to say here. I know I have benefited tremendously from your caring, prayers and good wishes.
