Scriptural Text: 1 Peter 5:8: Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.KJV
Whatever God created has an inbuilt potential that was invested by God to bring a particular solution to the world.
The devil from day one has kept fighting the human race, making sure that God’s divine purpose for the human race will not come to pass. In 1 Peter 5:8, scriptures make it clear that; the devil as a roaring lion walks about tirelessly, seeking whom he may devour. Thanks be to God that His divine protection keeps protecting us from the works of the evil one.
As God has chosen us purposely to bless us and see our lives fulfilled on this earth, the devil has also chosen you whether you like it or not purposely to kill, steal and destroy you according to John 10:10.
There is some work to do here. The onus and responsibility lie on you to build capacity for yourself through the daily study of God’s Word, through constant prayers and more especially staying away from sin. The devil is an accuser of the brethren. He always accuses us of things we have done wrong. Do not be a slave to sin, rather by the power of the Holy Spirit through prayer, always stay away from sin. That is the surest way to be blessed by God.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank you for your Word today. I have understood that there is an enemy from the time of creation that keeps fighting humanity. Lord! Please help me to overcome every set plan of the enemy. Help me to live a righteous life that will be pleasing in your sight always in Jesus’ mighty Name I have prayed with thanksgiving.
Amen
