I have a pinball game that I play
on my computer and I have learned not to take my eyes off
the ball for one second. Yet, time after time, I allow
myself to be distracted by something and I lose the ball.
It is
the same with satan. Every time that I put my eyes on a
person, a situation, or any other distraction instead of
focusing on Jesus, I have opened the door for satan to enter
and cause pain, heartache, and sorrow. I never capitalize
the name of Satan. I will not give him that respect.
Are you
taking your focus off Jesus and putting it on people and
circumstances? You are opening the door for Satan to enter
and cause problems in your life. We need to stay alert and
keep our hearts and minds centered on Jesus.
In this
world of temptations that surround us, I urge you to keep
your hearts, eyes, and minds on Jesus. What about the
programs you watch on television? Would you watch them if
Jesus were sitting beside you? I can remember when they had
good, clean family programs that were funny and inspiring.
Now, it seems when you turn on the television most of the
time you see and hear sex, violence and profanity.
Let??™s
turn our hearts and our homes back to Jesus so that we will
not be ashamed when we stand before God on the Judgment Day.

???Be sober, be vigilant; because
your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about,
seeking whom he may devour.???
