12 Therefore, rejoice, O heavens and you who dwell in them! But woe to you, O earth and sea, for the devil has come down to you in great wrath, because he knows that his time is short! ~ Revelation 12:12
If we, who are Christians, have loved ones, say our children, who are not serving Jesus, or have not accepted Him as LORD and Savior, then we should be down on our knees day and night with tears and pleas of mercy for them.
It is not God’s will for any to perish. He wants everyone saved, yet many will not be saved because they refuse to believe. They refuse to give up and repent of their sins. Because men love the darkness more than they love the light, this is what’s holding back our loved ones from getting saved.
One of the biggest problems is that they are being educated under the secular educational system, which programs them to believe that there is no God, and even if there were a God, there is no need for God. And this is a worldwide problem. We are living in the last days, so heed the warning God gives us in the book of Revelation. The Devil has come down to the earth in great wrath because he knows he only has a short amount of time left.
If more than a thousand years is a short amount of time for Satan, how much more is the few years we have on this earth to pray for and disciple our loved ones? Pray and fast for your loved ones that the LORD would have mercy on them and soften their hearts towards Him so that they might be saved. Don’t remain idle while they remain on a path that leads to eternal damnation. Stand in the gap for them. Pray for them. Seek the LORD on their behalf. Don’t waste the short time that we have on this earth.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Use Our Short Time.
