We must understand, the Devil is using everything around us to lead us away from God, Christ and His church. And, the big thing is, the Devil isn’t using “bad” stuff to do this. He uses things that are good in and of themselves, things that are fun, supportive, and even maybe good for us physically is some ways. But, he gets us to turn our attention to these things instead of God. We are to love God, love Christ above everything in this world including even our physical family. Think about what Jesus said in Matthew 10:37 where He said, “He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.” The Apostle Paul said, “Test yourselves to see if you are in the faith, examine yourselves! Or do you not recognize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you—unless, indeed you fail the test” (1 Corinthians 13:5). Do you fail or pass the test?
Until next week, I love you all,
