Now that you are a child of the King of kings, the devil will do all he can to mess you up. You have gone against his damnable advice and accepted the Saviour of the world, Jesus Christ. You are now his enemy and he is out to ‘get you’. There are going to be many discouragement, trials, disappointments, disgusts along the road to heaven. But be not upset!
James 1:2-3 says, “My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers (various) temptations; knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience”. “There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is FAITHFUL, who will not suffer (permit) you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation, also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it”
1 Corinthians 10:13.
Another thing to watch for is that Satan will try to get you to ‘compromise’. God says not to compromise, but rather, to be separated. Be very careful. “Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the DEVIL, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour”
1 Peter 5:8. However, “Ye are of God, little children… GREATER is HE that is in YOU, than he that is in the world”
1 John 4:4.
Dear friend, be true to God at all cost! Put Him first place in your life! Enjoy your Christian life with the Lord and look forward to Christ’s coming!
“Now unto Him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy. To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen”
Jude 24-25.
