When satan comes calling.

   Our enemy attacks in a direct fashion that may seem non-direct. In Job
you'll see Health, wealth, family and friends are used. In Mark 8 an attack,
notice the sublime way that it is posed. Another example in Galatians2
11-14. In many ways our fallen nature will assist in this. One may ask how
does our nature assist in this? A very simple illustration would be when we
rely on our own understanding. In the Garden of Eden when the fruit was
eaten. Did Adam and Eve die right there on the spot? No not physically and
not on the spot. Spiritually they did and then physically. We were given a
warning on relying on our own understanding in Proverbs3 verse 5. In
Proverbs2 verse 6 we are shown where we should draw our understanding.

   Today we see the same tactics used. These tactics are designed to cause
doubt, confusion and division. Many today point wholly to science and their
understanding thereof as a way to explain things. Yet our science is ever
changing and so is our understanding of it. There are many among you that
will say, "When the Bible was written we didn't have the understanding that
we do today". What these people are saying whether they know it or not is,
that the Almighty and Living God doesn't know what he is talking about.

    How then do we guard against his attacks? If we rely on our own
understanding we will surly fall, however we can hold up any situation
against the Word of God and compare it to what he said. In Acts 17:11 this
same method was used by the Bereans. Again. Here in lies the problem. Many
are
drawing there understanding wholly from men and not from his most Holy Word.
I ask you, does a soldier go into battle without his weapon? No, he does
not. Why then are so many not taking the sword of truth (the scriptures) in
their hearts and minds into this daily battle?   We must be sure to put on
the whole armor of God, as stated in Ephesians 6:10-18. So I ask you.
Please, in these last days. In these few and fleeting moments. Please read
and study his word, so that you may not be deceived by our enemy satan.
Remember your life is kept not by what you eat but by the word of God
(Matthew 4:4 & Luke 4:4).

May the Lord richly bless you as you read his Word today.
