Guard Your Thoughts, The Devil Is Cunning by bingbagbo(m): 3:23am On Mar 20, 2019
But I am afraid that as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your thoughts will be led astray from a sincere and pure devotion to Christ (2Corinthians 11:3).

Remember you are bethroted to the Lord Jesus Christ your eternal husband (2 Corinthians 11:1-4). He is the groom and we are the bride, this is the real spiritual marriage . We are to be presented to him as pure virgins (2 Corinthians 11:2). Not virginity In the carnal sense but we must be holy without any spots lest we be rejected by the groom; remember, even earthly suitors desire virgins as bride. To ensure our virginty daily, we must consistently examine ourselves (2 Corinthians 13:5) .

Don't be deceived by the popular mantra "let your righteousness exceed your sins" .Beloved this is a big lie and deceit from the pit of hell, rather be ye perfect, as your father is perfect (Matthew 5:48). I am sure you are thinking 'how can I? I am a mere mortal I can't be perfect, even my righteousness is like filthy rags before God...: , you are predestined to be perfect and you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you (Phillipians 4:13).

Let us guard our thoughts, in fact your mind is the real battle ground where the emeny targets all his deadly missiles. Let's occupy our minds moment by moment with the power of the Holy spirit. All sins are first conceived in the heart then straight up to the mind where it is processed for action. Let us devote ourselves sincerely and wholly to our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ. Remember, the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom (1 Corinthians 6:9). Wait a minute, are you saying this writer is crazy and preaching self a righteousness and that salvation is solely by grace? Then you don't know what grace is. Grace is not a license to sin, in fact grace of the power of God given onto his children to live Holy, that is why Paul asked , " shall we continue to sin so that grace shall abound ?" and the answer is No Sah!

Hell is real. Heaven is real. Sin is your visa to hell, righteousness through Christ Jesus is your visa to heaven. Maranatha!

Arise and shine. Amen.


Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil … above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. Ephesians 6:11, 16

"And this good news of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the world, as a testimony to all the nations; and then the end will come" {Matthew 24:14}.

Don't fret because of evildoers; don't envy the wicked. For evil people have no future; the light of the wicked will be snuffed out' (Proverbs 24:17-20 NLT).
