WE WIN!
As the mass producer
of lies and deception, it is Satan’s mission to magnify situations that cause
us to feel like we are losing. Truth is, he knows that is all one big
lie. And, if we can keep our heads during challenging moments and rely
solely on what GOD says, we know that our ultimate result will be diametrically
opposite to any satanic suggestion.
Bernard, a seminary
student, was playing basketball with some friends. They were using the
court at a nearby school, where a friendly old janitor would wait patiently
until they finished their game before locking up. One day Bernard noticed
the janitor reading the Bible. Coming closer, he discovered the old
janitor was reading the Book of Revelation.
Bernard was surprised
since he thought Revelation to be a difficult book to interpret, even for
highly trained Bible students. “Do you understand what you are reading?”
queried Bernard.
“Oh yes, I understand
it,” the janitor replied.
Bernard was totally
intrigued. Here was a book that baffled scholars, a book that seemed to
be the source of every conspiracy theory known to humanity, yet this old
janitor with very little formal education claimed to understand it!
“You say you
understand the Book of Revelation?!? What do you think it means?” asked
Bernard.
The old man looked up
at him and very quietly said, “It means that JESUS is gonna win!”
We, too, have read the
last chapter of the book. It clearly states one simple fact: WE WIN!
