A team of soldiers on duty in Afghanistan had reached their destination and were only 50 yards or so from parking their vehicle when one of them unhooked his seat belt in preparation to get out of the vehicle. Seconds later, the truck blew up from a bomb planted by opposing forces, throwing the unsecured soldier and killing him instantly.
I admire his parents and siblings back in America. They immediately recognized this as a work of the enemy. I often hear many say, “Well, it must have been his time. It was God’s will. It is a test to make your family stronger. Or He must have been living in sin.”
Recognize the source of the opposition as being Satan. 2 Cor. 4:4 tells us that Satan is the god of this world, and Jn 10:10 tells us that it is the thief (Satan), that comes only to kill, steal, and destroy! Jesus came so that we can choose life, an abundant life!
Once you realize the source of the opposition, RESIST him (Jms 4:7), and STAND (Eph 6:10-17)!
