ARE YOU CONFUSED? By Coach Dave Daubenmire

ARE YOU CONFUSED?

I don’t think the world has ever seen anything quite like the times in which we now live. There seems to be so much swirling around us. Sometimes I feel like my head is spinning.

Is it just me, or do you find it hard to know who and what to believe?
I write this with much caution because I am rapidly become more aware of the impact my writings have. I know that may sound arrogant, and that is certainly not my point, but the truth is, thanks to NewsWithViews.com, and the power of the internet, there are many around the world who are reading what I write....

The Spiritual war is real and is playing out before us. Because most Americans are so shallow in their thinking they do not understand that there is a spiritual reason, connection really, to everything that is going on in this world. The battle between good and evil, light and dark, truth and lies, right and wrong, is playing out in the battle for the culture. 

Most of us think it is political; democrat bad/republican good, liberal bad/conservative good, Fox News good/MSNBC bad…but that merely identifies the teams and some of the star players.

The battle before us is the battle of the ages; The seed of the serpent against the seed of the woman…make no mistake about it. It is a REAL war with real eternal consequences. Hell is real, angels, demons, Satan…Jesus…they are all real…but invisible. Often it is hard to believe what you CAN see, let alone what you can’t.
But trust me; there is a dimension around us where this “wrestling” is taking place. “High places” is the term the Scriptures give us, where the “principalities and powers” battle for control of this earth-world.


The job of a Christian is to contend for Truth in this world, “tearing down strongholds and every high and lofty thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God.” (I’ve probably lost about two-thirds of my readers at this point because they don’t understand what I am talking about.) The spiritual world is more real than the natural one...but we can’t see it because it is “invisible” to the natural eye.

Paul warned us “But the natural (fleshly) man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” It takes “spiritual eyes” to see spiritual things. Jesus told Nicodemas that unless you were “born of the Spirit” you could not even “see the Kingdom of God.” 

I pray some of you have eyes to see what I am trying to reveal…
