Be Careful Not To Fall Into The Devil's Trap

Be Careful Not To Fall Into The Devil's Trap

Careful means to be watchful, alert, cautious. From the beginning of the creation of human beings, God gave specific instructions as to what to do and not do. God knew that satan was on earth desiring to separate man from God. This is the devil's goal and he uses a very little three letter word called "sin" to do it. As God's children (christians) we have new given power and position in Christ to overcome the world, flesh, and the devil! Satan knows he cannot overpower the Spirit of God that lives in us, that's why he tries to get us to a place in the flesh, trying to fight a spiritual war through our own will power; this is one of his biggest weapons, we must always be careful not to fall into this trap. Galatians 5.16 says - Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. I love this fact! I'm thankful for God's Word reminding us that we can live victorious lives if we continue to abide in Christ Jesus, in His love, in His power, and in His protection from the traps of the enemy!
