Woh high on the devil hit list.??

We as a Church were told that the devil has really got the children of this world in his sights.

1.) Do you believe this is his priority.?

2.) Is he aiming at them in particular or has he others he wants to fall at the same time.??

3.) If this is as I have pointed out, what could we be doing to safe guard the children.?

Satan does not need to have in his sights those who do not know Jesus and have given their lives to Him because if they do not belong to Jesus they belong to satan. We are either for God or against Him. Once we belong to Jesus satan will do all he can to tempt us away - he is on a loser because once we are in the palm of His hand, nothing can take us away from there.

Hello Laterunner

satan can do nothing without God allowing it, but try as he might, satan cannot breach God’s defenses of his children.

I believe his priority is to cause pain to our Father, The Fathers will is that all would be saved for all of us to come to repentance, it would seem to me that this then is the only place left for Satan to oppose God, by turning us away from the gift of salvation. I believe that is Satan's priority

Have you ever wondered about the angels rejoicing

Luk 15:10 In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents."

This shows me how important our salvation is to our Father, That the angels of God rejoice over one sinner who repents.

This is Satan's priority, that we not come to repentance in that way we are choosing Satan instead of our Father

I believe you have a point laterunner. It seems that the boundaries are constantly being pushed away from a Godly moral base, through art, music, philosophy, fashion and the like and the young are the most susceptible. The sad thing is, parents are encouraging it because the media promotes it. Satan is no fool, he is an expert at tempting the ego through the desires of the flesh. It is bondage, we see people in their 70s and 80s still piling on the cosmetics creating horrible caricatures of their youth. I believe the only remedy is the truth, children need their eyes opened to the beauty of God's creation. There are beautiful personalities among us that don't rely on the fashion or cosmetic industries and would rather read a book than go out to places of danger. Many are in successful positions and can be held up as role models. We should be encouraging our children to emulate people like this. Also, rather than pushing our children into professions that we hold in esteem, maybe we should watch our children to see what they excel at, and encourage them in that. If we respect the aspirations of our children, maybe they will respect us and our beliefs..
