And the Devil smiled.
They kicked God out of public schools – banned Bibles and prayer.
And the Devil smiled.

And the Devil smiled.
There are no consequences for bad behavior – no personal responsibility.
And the Devil smiled.
Marriage vows have been poisoned by pornography. Society looks upon marriage as a temporary convenience, a legal date, that can be abandoned when maintaining its vows becomes inconvenient.
And the Devil smiled.

What happened in Parkland, Florida is about wickedness – a war between the forces of darkness and LIGHT – a battle between evil. and GOOD. What has happened in Parkland and in so many other places evidences the age-old conflict between the devil and GOD!
There is no doubt our land is wounded, her people suffering. But we have turned our backs on the One who promised to heal our Land. (If My people, who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from Heaven and forgive their sin and heal their land." II Chronicles 7:14)
The politicians and pundits would have you believe this is not about God, it’s not about righteousness. They would have you believe it’s about politics and mental illness and gun control.
And the Devil smiled.
