Arriving at work, I put my lunch bag in the refrigerator, fired up the computer and entered my logged on. The phone
rang. "This is Ms. Swanson," I told the caller.
"Yes, right away." I hung up the phone, reached for my keys and
raced downstairs asking God to provide what I need from the spiritual realm. I
wasn’t sure what I would run up against. A policeman was
at my car writing a ticket. One of the sergeants’ saw my handicap placard
on the seat and called me to come down quickly. While racing to the car, I
noticed my IPhone watch on my arm. I wasn't allowed to wear it at work, especially with security violation written all over the action. I forgot to take it off! Supposed
someone saw it, I could lose my job. Right at that moment I remembered to get my retainer from my purse when I put it in the truck. It could melt in the heat, costing a replacement cost of $300. All I can say is, "I
didn't see that coming!" Do you know who else didn't see an event unfolding? Satan! He didn't see Jesus getting out of the grave (Matthew 27:62-66 & Matthew 28:1-6). Crucifying the Son of God, the demon celebrations began. Satan thought he eradicated his arch enemy from existence. Notwithstanding, Jesus rose on the third day and reigns forever. I guarantee Satan didn't see that coming. Whatever going on in your world, know that God sees it and has put a plan in place to order your steps (Psalms 37:23). He sees what's coming, aren't you glad?
Do you remember going to the arcades? You and your friends’ old rendezvous spot, battling for the top spot in one of the popular games. While you guys horsed around, a group of troublemakers bullied their way onto the machines? Your posy band together vowing to have each other’s back. Now days, every man for himself. Someone will call 911 for you, any more than that would be heroic (Romans 5:7). No one takes on any man’s cause anymore. The back-in-the-day phrase was "I got your back."
