We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Seven Tactics of Temptation: 1. Satan especially likes to tempt us when our faith is fresh, i.e., when the Christian is only recently converted and thus less prepared to know how to resist his seductive suggestions. 2. Satan especially likes to tempt us when our faith feels strongest, i.e., when we think we are invulnerable to sin. If we are convinced that we have it under control, we become less diligent. 3. Satan especially likes to tempt us when we are in an alien environment. 4. Satan also likes to tempt us when our faith is being tested in the fires of affliction. When we are tired, burnt out, persecuted, feeling excluded and ignored, Satan makes his play. His most common tactic is to suggest that God isn’t fair, that he is treating us unjustly, from which platform Satan then launches his seductive appeal that we need no longer obey. 5. Satan especially likes to tempt us immediately following both spiritual highs and spiritual lows. Periods of emotional elation and physical prosperity can sometimes lead to complacency, pride, and a false sense of security. When they do, we’re easy targets for the enemy’s arrows. 6. Perhaps Satan's most effective tactic in tempting us is to put his thoughts into our minds and then blame us for having them. 7. A related tactic of temptation is for him to launch his accusations as if they were from the Holy Spirit. In other words, he couches his terms and chooses his opportunities in such a way that we might easily mistake his voice for that of God.

All of us would be wiser if we would resolve never to put people down, except on our prayer lists.

    INSTRUCTIONS

    I found this receipe in some magazine I picked up -- I think it was Essence
~- and it is good.  Put all ingredients into blender or food processor.
But I was in Jamiaca a few weeks ago and went to Boston Beach, home of the
Jerk Sauce and bought some which I was able to bring int the country (USA)
without trouble. It was in an old plastic soda bottle!  The man who sold it
to me said that there were 32 ingredients! Does anyone know what
ingredients those could be that are legal?
