“…the LORD said to Satan, “From where do you come?” Satan answered the LORD and said, “From going TO AND FRO on the earth, and from walking back and forth on it.” (Job 2:2) Just what is the devil looking for? Well, we are told to, ”…humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt us in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil WALKS ABOUT like a roaring lion, SEEKING WHOM HE MAY DEVOUR. RESIST HIM, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.” (1 Peter 5:6-9)
The devil has been walking about to and fro for a very long and “…hell has enlarged itself, and opened its mouth without measure; and their glory, and their multitude, and their pride, and he who rejoices in her, SHALL GO DOWN INTO IT.” (Isaiah 5:14) And, “The wicked shall be TURNED INTO HELL, And all the nations that forget God.” (Psalms 9:17) So, my dear brothers and sisters, we need to open our hearts wide and pray earnestly for Amy and others we know that are hell bound, that she and others will not go down into hell, but be redeemed by the blood of the Lamb. We were “…not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, but with THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.” (1 Peter 1:18-19)
