Friday night was insane. The Youtube channel was being spammed. I was told I was going to be flagged until the channel was forced closed. People were posting lies and vulgarity all over the channel and the videos. I was receiving email threats that this site would be hacked. While I wasn’t afraid, I was certainly concerned. Let’s face it – though few of us really know how much a hacker can or cannot do to our various internet endeavors – they do seem to carry almost a supernatural aura about them due to that lack of knowledge.
I prayed for a lot of things that night. I prayed for calmness. I prayed for patience. I prayed for protection.
Now it’s Sunday morning, and the channel is still there. This website is still online. God is good.
Through all of this, I have realized that the truth really upsets the enemies of God. Who was behind all the threats? Who knows? There accounts were closed almost as soon as their threats and vulgarities were posted, but one thing is for sure, God knows who they are and it’s in His hands.
I think it’s important to remember that the people who created all this fuss aren’t the enemies, but the devil who pushed their buttons and pricked their pride is. Lord willing, seeds were planted and Jesus can start to come into their lives as well.
Empty Threats…
