The Devil is Roaming and Roaring
Narcissists deliberately poke at us to cause frustration and anger to be able to blame us for their wrong attitudes. If they can get us to blow up they can say; "see how you are, you are no different from me." They are liars to the core. Narcissists hate kindness and those who are loving people because it shines the light on their darkness.
When the narcissist cannot control our feelings and successfully manipulate us they will attempt to turn others against us.
Remember Judas betrayed Christ without a cause, merely for money. Many will betray us to have power over us while enlisting others to do the same.
If a narcissist cannot control us they will work at getting others to emotionally abuse us, a form of control by proxy.
When we draw back from the narcissists and get a long refreshing breath of absence from them we begin to see their tactics more clearly and even observe the humor in the childishness caused by the influence of the devil.
Narcissists love control but what they do not realize is that they are not in control of themselves but the devil is, manipulating them to think things that are not true the same as he did in the Garden with Eve when he convinced her to distrust God, blaming God of things that were not true, turning Eve from God to disobey Him.
The devil is no different today in his manipulation of people to ruin relationships while accusing falsely those who are innocent.
1 Peter 5:8-10
"8 Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
9 So resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished by your brothers and sisters who are in the world.
10 After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen, and establish you."
Judas Betrayed Christ Too!
When you are treated disrespectfully because of your faith in Christ remember Judas betrayed Christ without a reason too.
Bad will be Called Good and Good will be called Bad
"Bad will be called good and good will be called bad", in these last days of raging insanity.
Nearly everything promoted today is the opposite of what God would want the culture to do and families to promote. Those who love God's ways will be treated disrespectfully for living according to God's word.
And, the biggest disappointment of all is that many of these people of the culture are in the apostate churches.
"3 For the time will come when they will not tolerate sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance with their own desires,"
Isaiah 5:20
"20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!"
Those who have Christ living in us and love His Word and His Ways will live in peace within our hearts even if the unsaved rage at us. They will judge everything we do as mean or wrong, but we do not have to listen to them. Thankfully only Christ counts and those who love Him count.
Keep pressing on brothers and sisters, soon it will be over and we will all be together at the marriage supper of the Lamb celebrating our wedding. Hallelujah!!!
The End Times We Live In
Matthew 7:21-23
I Never Knew You
21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’"
2 Timothy 4:3
"3 For the time will come when they will not tolerate sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance with their own desires,"
2 Timothy 3:1-5
"Difficult Times Will Come
3 But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come.
2 For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, slanderers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy,
3 unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good,
4 treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,
5 holding to a form of godliness although they have denied its power; avoid such people as these."
