Blinders

 

  Satan has blinded the minds of the unbelievers so that the glorious good news about Messiah, who Is the image of God, would not be seen. This is the intent of the enemy. Believe what you want and how you want to and where you want to do it, but do not believe IN Jesus. Yeshua. Why is that so powerful? It's because it both instills power in the seeker while removing power from the one who is seeking to blind it. It doesn't level the playing field friends. It wins the game. 

   I see myself as a foot soldier for Yeshua. I will probably never see crowds around me and I very much want to be nameless and faceless and selfless. Theirin still remains a war that is to be confronted. It is the frustration of when to give someone over to The Lord believing my job has been accomplished. Perhaps that is frustration speaking. Maybe it's the religious background I have dwelling in my memory bank that even has the notion to just give up. I mean really, how long do we have to help someone in Jesus name before we can call one a pearl before swine kind of effort? I'm beginning to believe God is not into unfinished projects. I think about his patience and space He has given me to repent and turn around. I feel like those in my path reflect the man I also once was, and it makes it impossible to just let go of anybody I feel that I am supposed to be helping along the way. I feel it hypocritical to stop until a mission is accomplished. But along this way I can see within those I seek to help be redeemed...blinders.

   There is no doubt that what we face daily is a spiritual battle in a finite physical world. I have to remind myself often that people are not stupid or incoherent, but that they are spiritually blind to the truth. It's not their fault either. The removing of this veil requires a spiritual force to be successful. I know that it did for me. Without God's intervention leading me to Yeshua, Jesus, I would still be as blind as I was in the womb.

  I am thankful today for His guiding light that has lead me from the darkness. It is my prayer that He removes the blinders from anyone that is placed within my path.

May it be so.
