It said "bad company corrupts good character." I think this verse applies to any program we watch regularly because we're bored or lonely. I used to be a BIG proponent of Oprah, haven' watched her much at all lately due to the fact that I don't have time, but that's all the better for me, huh? =) Even though she's not IN our homes, she's invited in the "door" of our homes through the tv screen, welcomed with a smile and a feeling of "ahhhh, my friend has come." My mom sent me a set of Oprah's youtube sitings and warning several weeks ago. I had no idea Oprah had gone this far. Jesus, please call your little sheep back into the truth, by your great grace.

I've noticed that since I have been walking closely with the Lord, that I have just lost interest in watching TV and hardly watch it anymore. To be honest, I've never really paid attention to Oprah. However, one of my closest friends (a christian who is no longer walking with the Lord) think highly of her and often quotes her during our conversations. I've been praying that God would open her eyes to the dangers of listening to "inspirational" messages that are not of God. I'll be thinking of your exhortations the next time I talk to her. Thanks for not holding back from sounding the alarm! Thank you for your timely exhortations!

Amen Holy Spirit fall on us
Open our eyes to see
The false doctrines in this world
Open Oprah eyes to see that You are the Living God
There is no one besides You
You are the one and only true God
Open the eyes of the women of this world
To the falacies of new age and the occult
Help me and others to realize when we are being lied to
And the truth that sets us free
There are those of us who know the word inside and out
And I pray that we help others to see it too.
Amen
