Blessings,
Many times in life we have been told or taught to stay on guard. Whether it’s been at work as part of our duties, at school as part of our assignments, or in our personal lives. In one way or another it has been engraved in us to be on guard about a certain thing, activity, or issue. We tell our children to be on guard while crossing the street, we even tell adults to be on guard while driving. It has become a normal theme in our everyday life.
This too needs to be part of our daily lives in our walk with God. The Bible tells us the enemy prowls around like a roaring lion. He is out to try to devour us, and our job is to remain on guard and stop him from intruding in our lives. So we must remain firm on the word and our guard must be up against any wicked assignment. Since the enemy can’t stand up and fight you, he will try to use others to rise up against you. Our job is to not let ourselves get carried away by these distractions and remain firm in God. Ultimately in God is where we rest and where we are secure!
Today I remind you how important it is to remain focused and on guard in our walk with Christ. Although things might come up, he will always keep us secure. Have a blessed day.
P. Felix Rosero
Therefore, dear friends, since you have been forewarned, be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of the lawless and fall from your secure position. (2 Peter 3:17 NIV)
