Temptations by christainslove: 7:25pm On Apr 07, 2017 |
Temptations You could be sitting in a room thinking negative thoughts. There are spiritual forces at war that try to influence our minds with all sorts of evil thoughts. We are at war. The bible says Ephesians 6:12-For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. You could be in your room and Satan will send you a dart of depression. The Word of God tells us to give thanks no matter what. Start giving thanks and the devil will flee. You could be facing hard times and thinking of committing suicide-You may resist Satan (the unseen demon tempting you) with going out instead and helping others. If you don’t resist and instead commit suicide, then you are a murderer because your body, soul and spirit is not yours but God. So if you kill yourself, you have destroyed something that belongs to God. God created everyone. Murderers shall not inherit the Kingdom of heaven but you can repent from even thinking about suicide and be saved. So help others by doing good deeds like spreading the gospel on the internet or elsewhere. When you help others, you get happier and your mood will lift. This is something commonly said and every good thing comes from God including wisdom I know that if you focus on helping others, God will help you because his Word says Blessed are the merciful for they shall obtain mercy Satan can also make you worry as the world is full of trouble- Resist him with prayer and thanksgiving as the Philippians 4:6 says-Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. Supplication is the action of asking or begging for something earnestly or humbly. Satan can also tempt you to over-eat. Be careful as being fat will make you feel uncomfortable and unattractive. Satan tempts you to eat very large portions of food(he can come to do this every day till you die)-Resist him with-The bible says-Everything in moderation Always be sober, be vigilant for Satan, the worst enemy humanity can have, is moving around like those roaring lions in National Geographic wild, looking for souls to take to hell. But don’t worry, for the Lion of the tribe of Judah will save us |
