Two requests...
PostPosted: Wed Nov 05, 2008 9:33 pm
To start off, my mom got offered the job she wants. She currently works as a nursing home nurse, but she's always really wanted to work at the hospital. She truely enjoys taking care of people and has desired that specific line of work for so long, and now she might get it!...still though, only God knows the future, so all I ask is that you pray for her. Not that she gets it, but at least that she plans everything out right, her interviews go smoothly, etc. That way, even if she doesn't, it'll help her in some way.
My second request, I feel selfish and evil about...but it is for myself. The other day satan tried to mess with my head and made me question "what if Jesus was satan pretending to be the messiah?" Obviously this isn't true.
Not only did the prophecy match Jesus perfectly (I even believe there was something like, He had to come after so many sabbath years or whatever?), but come on. Jesus did things in the name of God while here on earth. Not only would satan be so bitterly against that (mr pride and all), but I can't see God disgracing His holy name by allowing it to be used to lead people away from Him. I mean, God loves us and wants us for Himself (which He rightfully deserves), so He wouldn't let that happen. I do believe He'll let people follow the devil during the anti-christ stuff later, but considering how that's a totally different situation, I don't let it get to me.
Heck, Jesus Himself also brought up the obvious one. If it was a demon or satan himself, then why was he getting rid of demons? A kingdom divided cannot stand. All that would've done was cause satan to be on his own and given the posessed people another chance to follow God the right way (since the demons couldn't have posessed them if they believed from the get go).
In short, it's just the devil being stupid. I know the answer, I TOTALLY know the answer. But it's like he keeps making me question and I feel so bad, like I'm blaspheming God. I explained it to my mom and she said it's not the same as the guys who called Jesus an evil spirit since, if anything, I'm looking for the stuff to disprove that as well, but...I just wish I could remember something that would make this just stop. Not only do I KNOW I'm forgetting vital information that proves Jesus is God, but it's like...I have OCD and I feel as if the devil is taking advantage of my weak point.
So sorry for rambling, I guess I just need prayers...
