WILL YOU EVER LEARN

“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.”

1 Peter 5:8 KJV

When I was a teenager, my Mother used to say to me “I’ve told you and told you not to do that.  Will you ever learn?”  If we will listen with our heart we will hear Jesus saying the same thing to us.  Jesus has told us to be on the alert for the attacks of satan but sometimes we take our eyes off Jesus and satan attacks us.

I have a pinball game on my computer that someone gave me to exercise my fingers so they don’t get stiff because of my arthritis.  It is very important that I keep my eye on the ball because it only takes a minute to miss that ball.  I know this and have written about it but yet I still take my eyes off the ball.

We must keep our eyes on Jesus and not allow satan to put us in bondage to him again.  If we have accepted Jesus as our personal Saviour, He has removed the bondage of satan from us.  Even though we take our eyes off Jesus at times He still loves us because He loves us unconditionally.
