THE PURPOSE OF THIS JOY STORY (like all of them) is for you to see, receive and believe, and apply the truth of God’s Word for your life: and, in addition to help guide others to do the same. This includes your enemies. After all: if you can’t love your enemies, you are not worthy of applying the blood of the only Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ to anyone or anything.
Amen and selah!
Today I am speaking of my reaction to a news story I heard yesterday. It regards a comedienne whom I would never pay a postage stamp worth to listen to…
She is that bad.
One thing (and there are many) this woman does not receive is this truth: Satan, the enemy of her soul, will allow her (what she sees as) a measure of success. But the children of God know this so-called success is only for a time and season. She has earned an enormous income from her vile career. And let me tell you, it is pitiful how many people do, thinking they are a ‘success’! Here, I pray: if you don’t believe me, believe God! She is not…
Selah.
This is the first thing which comes to my godly mind:
Matthew 16:26
What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?
What is this GOOD FOR ME!?
My ‘good’ is my reaction to a very current news story about her. Never a smoker, according to her, she now was told she has lung cancer. Those of us who know more than some others realize that secondhand smoke is just that, secondhand. Like Satan, secondhand smoke, is not the original. Satan, in fact, in no way can compare to the glory of God. Never has, never will. And like secondhand smoke, Satan, is vicious. He is working his plan on this corrupt woman:
Mark 8:36
What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul?
MY GOOD IS THIS… MY REACTION TO HER NEWS:
and I am so very thankful for it – here is why I say: “Good for me!”
I am grieved for this woman! She is obviously already headed for Hell by the values she has touted to the public. She has blinded herself to truth! And now she is truthfully faced with dying, and dying soon. It doesn’t have to be that way!
Psalm 91:16
With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.”
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
1 Peter 2:24
“He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.”
Here is this ’comedienne’s’ answer:
Acts 16:30-32
The jailer called for lights, rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas. He then brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household.” Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all the others in his house.
Like all sinners (every adult and teenager who are mentally capable of understanding the Gospel yet deny Christ) she needs Jesus!
I am blessed beyond emotion, thanking God in everything He does, that He has instilled in my love for mankind. I have agape love (that’s the God-kind of love) for her and for every sinner… I don’t want her to die before she is ready! Most of all, I don’t want her dying outside of God’s protective plan for her life He does have!!
I don’t like her! I don’t support her satanically inspired career. I don’t support her bitterness, her lies, and her vengeful agenda. Why would I?! She’s not on my team. She’s not living in my kingdom. She is an enemy.
I absolutely hate that she is suffering! I don’t like this! I shouldn’t! Not as a child of God.
And there are plenty of Scriptures telling me to stay away from such wicked people. (I will list these at the end.) But this is another Joy Story success story: grieve for the lost and dying sinners. Hold them accountable. And those who are able to still repent, (for apostates and reprobates cannot) pray for them.
If you don’t have this attitude – I question your Christianity.
Selah!
I am so thankful that I care about a woman I wouldn’t spend time with unless it was a God-conversation. I wouldn’t support her lifestyle in any way and I wouldn’t count her as having any wisdom…
Beloved and crabby, we don’t know who are reprobates and apostates – so pray for all the people God instructs you to and fully realize – He loved them enough to send Jesus, His Son, to offer the best gift: His love!
Amen!
By the way, when you lean on God and believe Him, acting on that belief – cancer has to go!
1 Peter 2:24
“He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.”
