Ladies and Gentlemen, here we are once again on the eve of All Saints Day!

Also known as “All Hallows’ Eve” or the slang term – Halloween! It could be called “Extortion Day” or “Children’s Bribe Day” or people “Dressing Ridiculous Day”. Recent articles have reported that Americans spend more money on costumes and candy to celebrate what has become the most godless holiday of the year!

Why in the world would we have a festival to enjoy(?) evil spirits, or the living DEAD, or witches, goblins and spooky things?

Therefore I remind you to stir up the Gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands. For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of His Power and of His Love and of a sound mind {common sense}. Therefore do not be ashamed of the Testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the Gospel according to the Power of God, who has saved us and called us with a Holy Calling, not according to our works, but according to His own Purpose and His Grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began, but has now been revealed by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who has abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the Gospel – Good News of Salvation, to which I was appointed a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles {non-believers}.   2Timothy 1:6-10

Until Christ came on this earth, we were ALL DEAD in our sins and trespasses! Now when we are buried with Christ, we are also Resurrected with Him and seated in Heavenly places! That same Spirit that raised Christ Jesus from the DEAD is IN ME, and greater is He that is IN ME, than any demon, gargoyle, witch, warlock, medium, soothsayer, sorcerer, or fake zombies that are in this world.

Father-God, we THANK YOU for ALL the Saints that have lived their lives to bring You Glory! We CELEBRATE those people who have had a POSITIVE influence on our lives.

I know that I AM BLESSED to be a BLESSING! I AM ALIVE today because my Heavenly Father still has work for me TO DO here on earth, just as it has been ordained from Heaven above.

We have not received the spirit of bondage again to be driven by the spirit of fear, nor the spirit of hopelessness, nor any fear of death! Satan is a defeated foe, and NOTHING can separate us from the LOVE of GOD which is IN CHRIST JESUS our LORD and Savior!

Amen and Amen!
