‘Come and Join Me in God’s Word’ – Blinded by Satan

2 Corinthians 4:3-4 TLB If the Good News we preach is hidden to anyone, it is hidden from the one who is on the road to eternal death. Satan, who is the god of this evil world, has made him blind, unable to see the glorious light of the Gospel that is shining upon him or to understand the amazing message we preach about the glory of Christ, who is God.

Satan will try to blind everyone from knowing the truth of who Jesus Christ is. He does not want people to be saved or redeemed. Satan is the god of this age, and his work is to deceive, not have people believe in Jesus Christ. Until we accept and receive in faith Jesus Christ is Lord and Saviour, the gospel is veiled from us. We must ask God to help us to help the needs of unbelievers and to open the door of opportunity for them so He can show us the ways and means of how to reach them with the Gospel. We need God’s love and strength to be bold and courageous, enabling us to speak up when necessary. We need to strip off anything that slows us down or holds us back. We need to fix our eyes not on what is seen but on what is unseen, as what is seen is temporary and what is unseen is eternal. We should walk by faith and not by sight.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, I ask You to give me boldness and faith, so that I have courage to speak out when the opportunities, arise in Christ. Guide and lead me to the people who need the truth of the Gospel, and help me to show them the Way, the Truth, and the Light, forever in the precious name of Jesus Christ. Amen
