“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” - John 10:10
When you think of destruction, what do you see?
For me, I think about a historic old building or a pasture of mature trees, being demolished and cleared to make way for something fresh, something we want now.
I think that’s a pretty clear picture of how the enemy uses destruction in our own lives. He takes away the perspective and needs for the future and replaces it with our impatient wants for the present.
He convinces us that our desires, urges, and fleeting temptations are valid, leading to the destruction of morals and relationships.
He tells us that our pride, judgment, and egos are warranted, leading to the destruction of our humility and wisdom.
And he makes us believe that we are the gods of our own lives, the creators of our own wealth, happiness, and destinies, leading to the destruction of our need for God himself.
By now, after four weeks of talking about the desires of the enemy, it’s easy to see how Satan uses common circumstances and everyday decisions to wreak havoc and destruction on our lives.
All he needs is one scratch, one crack in our hearts to expand and infect the wound. But praise Jesus for His redeeming love that can fill the voids and make us whole again. We serve a God who brings beauty from ashes - who turns our shame into something that can be used for His glory and our good.
Satan wants to destroy all the good God is doing in your life. He wants to clear out the good, beautiful things you already have around you and make you believe he has something better for you. Don’t let him. Stand firm in your faith.
“Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” (James 4:7)

Cool website!
My name’s Eric, and I just found your site – wheatandhoneyco.com – while surfing the net. You showed up at the top of the search results, so I checked you out. Looks like what you’re doing is pretty cool.
But if you don’t mind me asking – after someone like me stumbles across wheatandhoneyco.com, what usually happens?
Is your site generating leads for your business?
I’m guessing some, but I also bet you’d like more… studies show that 7 out 10 who land on a site wind up leaving without a trace.
Not good.
Here’s a thought – what if there was an easy way for every visitor to “raise their hand” to get a phone call from you INSTANTLY… the second they hit your site and said, “call me now.”
You can –
Talk With Web Visitor is a software widget that’s works on your site, ready to capture any visitor’s Name, Email address and Phone Number. It lets you know IMMEDIATELY – so that you can talk to that lead while they’re literally looking over your site.
CLICK HERE http://talkwithcustomer.com to try out a Live Demo with Talk With Web Visitor now to see exactly how it works.
Time is money when it comes to connecting with leads – the difference between contacting someone within 5 minutes versus 30 minutes later can be huge – like 100 times better!
That’s why we built out our new SMS Text With Lead feature… because once you’ve captured the visitor’s phone number, you can automatically start a text message (SMS) conversation.
Think about the possibilities – even if you don’t close a deal then and there, you can follow up with text messages for new offers, content links, even just “how you doing?” notes to build a relationship.
Wouldn’t that be cool?
