Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. ‎

But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, established, strengthen, and settle you. To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever, Amen. 
1 Peter 5:8-11

As Christians we are engaged in a daily battle that wages war on our soul. Although we have been saved by grace and nothing can take away our salvation....the devil strikes at us with his weapons of temptation to make us take our focus off God. The lure and attraction of his tempting pleasures have destroyed many Christians reputations and lives as humans. 

That's why it's so important to turn our attention away from anything worldly that we know will result in sinful actions. Every step we take, every decision we make...thoughts and words...all should be screened by God's holy word, the bible. 

If you hear a voice inside saying..."danger...this isn't right"...friend that is the Holy Spirit talking to you. Listen to His voice and respond appropriately. By doing so you will avoid unnecessary pain and heartache. 

Everyone who has trusted in and accepted Jesus Christ into their life, has and will continue to be challenged in their walk with the Lord. Keep your focus on God at ALL times and turn not towards those subtle things that you know are wrong. God will bless you for your obedience. 
Have an awesome Saturday friends and God Bless!!‎
