Time is short...

"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
I have ministered to church young people for more years than any old guy should. The way these marvelous characters react to life is a wonder to behold. At any given teen event the time comes to call it a day. We always give notice when the time to leave approaches. Upon such an announcement our wise and cooperative youth group will suddenly disappear. They are determined to get the most fun out of the time that is short.
Everyone tries to make the most of limited opportunity. The devil is no different in his great battle with God and his servants. We need to be very much prepared for a most formidable foe such as Satan. While he comes down to earth in great wrath in the days of tribulation, his efforts are even now increased as that time approaches. He is determined to do the most damage in the time that is short.
May your testimony be known by the fact that you loved not your life, even unto death my friend. You have conquered by the blood of the Lamb and victory is yours. But do you live with all out effort and attention on the hour? Satan is busier than ever as the days slip away, are you? Be determined to do the most for Jesus in the time that is short.
