Is Your Life’s Algorithm Dictated by God or the World Around You?
May 23, 2021
We have additional, audible and visual algorithm generators; think Alexa, Siri, your own cell phone and tablet, and others. Ever heard them respond or make a reference or suggestion or other, seemingly out of nowhere? That was them ‘listening’ and adding what they saw/heard into your life’s algorithm. This is not tin-foil hat stuff, folks – this isn’t doomsday or doom-and-gloom theories I’m explaining here. Don’t believe ME, believe the companies that widely and openly admit they’re doing this. The last WOW-factor type of information I received from Amazon is that Amazon’s algorithms are so strong and powerful, they’re often able to realize a woman is pregnant before SHE does based on her search and buying habits!!!! That’s just scary – I don’t know about you, but something just doesn’t sit well with me on that one. In the technology scheme of things, on the surface, it’s a pretty cool, almost sci-fi type of thing happening. On the spiritual side of things, it’s definitely a tool of the enemy and he’s been helping to make it stronger and stronger the moment the internet was formed. It’s a great avenue for him to use for his destructive plans and desires. Just as God uses technology to help his followers gain more knowledge and access, the devil does as well. Here's the point – the algorithm is based on YOU and YOUR interests, and YOUR desires, and YOUR wants and YOUR passions, and YOUR curiosities, and YOUR beliefs, and YOUR idols…..yeah, I said it – YOUR IDOLS. I’m not pointing fingers here, I’m stating facts. To show you what I mean, let me tell you what MY algorithms use to generate and send me on a daily, minute-to-minute, hour-to-hour basis – suggestions and ideas and links to porn, to alcohol, to worldly trinkets and toys, to worldly pleasures, to hate-filled speech and political rhetoric, to subject matter that was completely against God and absolutely against what He wanted in my life. I remember searching and looking for videos of actual beheadings, and suicide on film, and murder, and much, much worse. These negative images and suggestions and ploys to get me to go down these villainous rabbit holes were, yes, from the devil, but they originated from ME. I had no one else to blame but ME. It was technological and digital PROOF that I was worshipping and following the things of this world and not Jesus. These algorithms took the evil I had inside and perpetuated them to even greater heights and deeper depths. It became a vicious cycle – my sin was fueling new sin; my sinful nature was creating a bigger sin life and broadening the path to hell I was on. I was assisting the devil in his own plot to seek, kill, and destroy me and those around me!!!! If this sounds bad and horrible and deplorable and despicable and evil – that’s RIGHT!!! IT was!!! Absolutely. Do you think I had any pleasant things in my algorithm? Absolutely not. Were any Godly things popping up on my devices or in my recommended or suggested items to read, or research, or buy – absolutely not. Was there life or death in my daily algorithms I had created – most certainly DEATH. No scripture, no pureness, no holiness, no Christian or Biblical knowledge or wisdom, NO GOD, NO JESUS, NO HOLY SPIRIT, NO SALVATION.
