As a result of
the nature of sinfulness, many are so much interested in bad news; or they want
to talk about sickness, disease and death than the good-news of wellness and
life. Why is it so? It is certainly the strategy of the devil working in the
unbelieving minds.
“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill,
and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have
it more abundantly.” (Jn 10:10) Can’t you see that the language of the wicked
one is all about destruction and killing? If he can keep you captive in this
kind of mischievous and depraved trend; to him, it is mission accomplished!
The bad news makes the headlines in both print and electronic
media in the whole world today. The various breaking news are usually the
deadly or the most hideous, shocking and repulsive. The devil promotes the
propagation of disaster and calamities through his numerous setups.
These are
the agencies that work contrary to the Goodnews of our Lord Jesus Christ. They negate the advancement of the gospel of
the kingdom of God on earth. All satanic stimulated itching ears want to hear
stories about destructions, the killings, the raping, the robbing, the wars,
the betrayals and so on and so forth. We must know that the number one enemy of
God is Satan.
He will never allow people to be interested in these words of
Jesus, “…I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more
abundantly.” Why must we not be happy for our salvation and celebrate
life in Christ Jesus?
The love of our heavenly Father, God Almighty, was truly made manifest in the
suffering of His Son Jesus Christ. “…having loved his own which were in the
world, he loved them unto the end.” (Jn. 13:1) also read 1Jn 4:9. The essence of Christ’s suffering is to restore
us back to a sinless life; a lifestyle that is devoid of all forms of death
consequences. (Is. 53; 1Pe 2:24).
