About the Author

Introduction

Deep within your soul the Holy Spirit is trying to tell you all about the many puzzles you’ll face during your spiritual walk with God. Yes, your life consists of and is surrounded by puzzles. These puzzles are obstacles that the devil has set up for you and the devil realize that the more traps he has in your way, the easier it’ll be to change your mind. God explained it to me this way, He said, son, your life is like a thousand pieces puzzle and you’re just one piece. He said there are 999 other pieces working in your behalf, in-order to complete the picture. However, each piece represents an obstacle that Satan has placed before you. In-order to make that piece of the puzzle into a picture, you must complete the task at hand and yes, there will be many tasks. Whether you’re trying to gain confidence, strength, courage or salvation you must continue to move forward regardless. God said that I must complete each obstacle I come across, no matter what the situation looks like. He reassured me that my faith in Jesus Christ His son will ensure me of all victories!!! He said giving up is not option, nor will it ever be, so hang in there regardless of how it looks!

Each completed picture represents one of a thousand and there’s 999 other obstacles you will face in-order to make it through his course of destruction. How long and how fast you make it through is up to you & God because everything will be based upon your experiences with God. In other words, you’ll be sent to God’s School of Higher Learning and your faith will be tested beyond your means. Yes, the obstacles you’ll face daily is part of your schooling that you’ll be receiving from God. The wise thing to do is to stay focus on God at-all-times, because your faith will be tried & tested to a point that you may decide you had enough! This is not the time to quit, but it’s the time when you need to dig deeper within yourself and get all the help you’ll need. Realizing where your help comes from, will make your journey a lot easier to escape & evade the works of the devil.

Satan’s obstacle course is setup & design especially for you and you only! Meaning your spiritual journey is between you & God and the devil will be certainly throwing his fiery darts your way. You won’t be along, because Jesus Christ will be with you through thick & thin and he’ll never let you down. You may not be aware of Christ’s presence at certain times during your journey, just know he’s always with you, no matter what the condition looks like. Count on Christ when you can’t count on yourself because self will always let you down. Remember it’s no longer I, but instead it’s we, Christ & I, God & I and The Holy Spirit & I and this will make your life plural and complete. It may at times seems if nobody can help you through and you’ll be 100% right, simply because all your help will come from within and above.

People will let you down in just about every obstacle you’ll face and there will be many obstacles in your way. This’s why you’ll need to place all your trust in the Lord and you’ll never have to worry about being let down, when you need help the most. Friends, family & the world will be used by the devil to distract you and deter you from the word of God. The sooner you face the fact that, everybody can be used by the devil and realize that the devil will be on a mission to seek & destroy you. The moment you recognize this, life will be that much simpler. Making it through each obstacle will be a task among tasks because everything will be coming at you from all sides and this will be quite frustrating. It’s simple, the devil doesn’t want you to make it through. Again, giving up is not an option, nor will it ever be!!! So, hang in there, no matter what!!!

Blind faith will be your key to surviving all those obstacles in your way, because seeing will certainly have you thinking the impossible. You know very well that there’s nothing impossible for God and you need to lock this thought inside your head and keep it close to your heart. The devil will be trying to steal your joy, your happiness, your thoughts, your emotions, your heart, your body & your soul. Remember what you see is temporal and what you can’t see is eternal and what’s eternal is God. Don’t let your eyes deter you from your task or your mission at hand, because faith is the substance of things not seen, but hoped for! You can’t hope for something you can see, if this was true, then where’s the hope? All the troubles you’ll see, and face will certainly make you want to turn around and take the easy way out. Life itself is a challenge and nothing about life is easy, the same thing applies to your spiritual walk with God. If everything was easy for you, what would you learn about life? Absolutely nothing, because your life is based upon your experiences with God. Going through Satan’s obstacle course is part of your experiences with God.

These puzzles are design to teach you & instruct you about how to survive in a crooked & corrupted world. When your eyes get bigger than your heart, then fear will creep in and this will open the door to a host of demons on a mission to seek & destroy. Your job is to recognize trouble when it appears, by keeping your focus on God at-all-times, this will ensure you of all victories!!! What may be impossible to man is certainly possible with God. It’s simple! God is the creator of all things, whether they be good or evil, he’s the creator of all. Now, because we have free will to make choices in and around our life will mean that, our choices will be contrary to God’s will. Doing things our way is just the opposite of what God wants us to do. We can’t see all the pieces of the puzzle, like God can and he can see the beginning & the end. So, the choice is simple, follow yourself and end up on that fast train leading to destruction or do it God’s way and make it through and obtain salvation.

Life is simple, however, the obstacles you’ll face in life will be difficult to make it through, simply because the world, the people of the world & the devil and his demons will be on a mission to turn you around. Making it through and completing each obstacle will take everything you got & then some! The hardest thing you’ll ever face will be trying to hold onto your salvation, because you’ll have just about everybody against you. This’s why you’ll need complete trust in the Lord and let the world go, because you’ll be in for a complete let down. Just always remember, the world owns you nothing and you’ll never get back what you put into it. The world can’t give you nothing, because the world is design to take and it’s unable to give. Giving comes from God and taking comes from the devil and guess who’s running the world. You guessed it, yes, his name is Lucifer (Satan the Devil)! A thief finds it extremely hard trying to give, when they know deep within themselves that they can’t give without strings being attached.

So, if the world gave you something or you obtain certain things while running with the devil, you can count on the devil taking everything back. For the sake of peace, you should be more than willing to give everything back, except your soul it belongs to God. All you have-to remember is what God allowed the devil to do to his servant Job. The devil took everything Job had to including his family, his wealth, his friends, his health, & all his earthly belongings. Why? It’s simple! The things of the world belong to the devil at-the-moment and he’s a taker and he has nothing to do with giving. This means, he wants everything back or you’ll face losing your salvation, because you refuse to let go! Don’t worry, what you lose to the world will be a gain towards getting closer to Christ. God is not based upon material things, nor should your main-focus be on things you can see, instead turn your focus within and above. There’s nothing wrong with material things, just don’t let things determine who you are. Because when things disappear, and they will, where will your Christ be, in things or within?

God wants you to enjoy all your hard labor, he just doesn’t want you to put things or idols before him. God will bless you, after you endure to the end of your obstacle course. Your main purpose is make it through Satan’s obstacle course without giving up! Every obstacle you overcome will become a picture and this picture is part of the puzzle you must complete. These pictures represent the understanding of the battles you fought & won with God, against the devil. Always remembering that Jesus Christ is the center piece of all obstacles & puzzles and he’ll never let you down. You got to believe this, no matter what the devil says or will be saying! The devil will be saying you can’t and God will be saying: yes, you can, don’t give up & don’t ever lose your faith in my Son Jesus. Remember, everyone must go through hell in-order-to get to heaven, as, long as, you remember this, life will be just fine. These puzzles represent all the hell you’ll go through in-order-to receive salvation. Salvation is a gift from God and you must earn this gift and you can keep this gift by giving up on the world. The road you’ll be traveling on will be crooked & full of corruption, however, God can make that road straight, if you put him first.

Modes of Transportation:

The Train ride & the Airplane ride

During your spiritual journey you shall be traveling by two modes of transportation. You’re either, riding that fast train with the devil and going nowhere but straight to hell & eventually to eternal damnation or you’re riding on that smooth airplane with God, enjoying & loving salvation in heavenly places. Let’s us explore & see what it’s like to ride on a train that’s being controlled by the Devil.

Chapter 1

The Train Ride

In the Book of Matthew Chapter 16, verses 24 thru 28 shows you the importance of denying yourself.

Riding on Satan’s Ruff Ride Train is exactly that, a rough ride! On this train everybody has
