The enemy is working, are you?

Today I heard of problems in the lives of 4 different pastors from our area. Each of them is different. All of them are related to the pastors' families. It makes my heart sick to think of the enemy getting his way in the lives of people who are closest to those who are charged to equip the saints (see Eph 4:11-12).

On the other hand, I am excited. Satan has no desire to work where God is not at work. Satan has no reason to be involved where God is not active. So, if those who are equipping are under attack, surely God is about to do something good. Is that exciting to you?

The question becomes simply this. If Satan is at work and God is at work, then shouldn't we be at work? Should we not be like God's hands and feet and lips even now? Are you?
