What would you fight for? I mean really fight. Not the kind of fight you talk about when a slow driver pulls out in front of you, cutting you off in traffic, and then going e...x...t...r...e...m...e...l...y slow. Are you frustrated? Yes. Will you fight about it? Probably not. Not if you have any sense, anyway.
What would you fight for? I mean fight to the death. Would you spill blood for a front row parking space, or a front row ticket to see your favorite team play your favorite sport? Would you lay it on the line with someone who disagreed with your political beliefs or your religious beliefs? To the death? Only one walks away?
When it gets down to it, there is probably not much you would fight to the death for. But what about your family - your better half, your kids? Would you fight to the death for them? I would...and am. I would fight for my family without hesitation - to the death. Whatever it takes to protect them. I am fighting for my family right now. And yes, this fight is to the death.
Of all the enemies your family has in this world, there is one that stands above all others. This enemy hates you and your family and is doing everything within his power to make sure your family is destroyed. His Hebrew name is Satan. Jesus called him the Deceiver. The Devil. Some of us can look at our family and see the battle scars that the Deceiver has inflicted on us - divorce, depression, drug abuse, alcohol abuse, broken relationships, runaway children, absent fathers, detached mothers. The Deceiver has been attacking the family for a very long time. He started with Adam and Eve and he continues his brutal assault today. Your family has been hit, my family has been hit, and the battlefield is littered with countless bodies - members of families who became victims of the Deceiver's merciless attacks.
Why haven't we done anything about these attacks on our families? I'm not sure. Maybe we wrote them off as "life" or "fate." Maybe we were too weak to fight back. Maybe we didn't even realize we were being attacked. Or...maybe we did want to fight back, but we just didn't have the weapons. Why should you believe in Orange?
- It is biblical.
- It may be the best weapon we have, not only to protect our families from the attacks of the Deceiver, but to actually hit back.

WOW! I like this post. I look forward to reading more about ORANGE! I'm ready to fight back against the Deceiver!
I for one want to fight the fight against the deceiver because our kids are our future and I want to see a strong united family in Christ with Church and the family together as one in Him.
