FLEE THE HUNTER
“Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler” - Proverbs 6:5
A roe is a type of deer that lives in the forest. It is known to be very smart and quick to flee at the sight of its hunter. The devil is the hunter of youths; he sets several attractions with evil plan to catch the careless youth. Jesus described the devil as a “thief” who comes to steal, kill and destroy. (John 10:10). As a youth, he may use your friends, mates, deceptive adverts on the net to attract you to disobey God. Immoral persons have gained entrance into youths through free meals in so called lunch time outing. Others are recruited to secret cults from party halls and deceitful feasts. “The adulteress will hunt for the precious life (Proverbs 6:26). Your life is precious to God, your parents, the church and the world. As a Christian youth, guard against these satanic in-roads to evil and defeat. Be prayerful and watchful, ever ready to flee like Joseph when you see any appearance of evil. Challenge: What will you exchange for your soul?
Prayer: Lord, deliver me from evils
Quote: Flee like Joseph
