WHAT PLEASES
Today’s Scriptures
14 but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. James 1:14 (NIV)
Today's TO DO
Do life in moderation.
God is Love. His will for you is good, therefore, He will not tempt you. Instead, it is our adversary, lucifer, who pursues us. He has one agenda. The devil seeks to devour our potential and our provisions. Unfortunately, he has been hunting down the children of The Most-High God since creation. He will never tempt you with bait that you will never bite. The serpent will only dangle the apple that whets your appetite. The very thing that you struggle with will be your Achilles heel. Our scripture describes it as being, “dragged away by their own evil desire,” because the things that please us will be the very poison that the liar will try to use to destroy us.
Therefore: Do life in moderation. Sin creeps in when we elevate anything above our God. Idolatry and addiction have an extraordinarily strong correlation. Lucifer will never be happy with your contentment, so he will tempt you to indulge a little more. Remember, you are his target, and his mission is to destroy you. Even a good thing, if not managed with wisdom and obedience to the voice of The Holy Spirit can consume and overrun you until you no longer fit into your life as you knew it. The Good Father is pleased when you enjoy the blessings that He has bestowed upon you. However, make sure that what pleases you does not ultimately take you down!
