Matthew 26:41 KJV — Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
The world is growing increasingly wicked and darker; no one is safe lately even with his brother or sister. Things are no longer what they seem. We must therefore be careful and learn the secrets to stay safe.
We cannot go into hiding because the world has become unsafe and dark. You have to go to work, marry, serve in ministry and missions. Everything will continue normally until the hour and time all things shall end. You will have to go to work; you have to relate and serve in the mission field. Each of us will have to live and maximize the potential of life.
2 Corinthians 10:3-7 KJV — For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: [4] (for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) [5] casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
[6] and having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled. [7] Do ye look on things after the outward appearance? If any man trust to himself that he is Christ’s, let him of himself think this again, that, as he is Christ’s, even so are we Christ’s.
- Beware that though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh
- We are involved and dealing with things mostly far deeper than they appear. Be awake and get understanding.
- Be vigilant
- We need to be as wise as serpents and harmless as doves. As you go about your daily business, you must be vigilant and careful. You cannot walk about without opening your eyes. Evil is infiltrating everything and gross darkness is covering the earth; but we shall arise and shine because our light has come.
- Don’t judge things after the outward appearance
- Look for fruits; look for depth; go over and beyond what it looks like. There is always more to it than meets the eye. Be willing to go the extra mile and put in extra work.
- Observe the little signs and changes around you
- In a dark and crooked world, we must observe and investigate every little change or sign. Any little change or sign you observe may have a deeper and larger foundation underneath. These days people can be deeply evil and show no sign.
- Pray about every little thing or change you observe
- The cloud like the hand of a man you are seeing may be the announcement of a tsunami. Sometimes what you are observing as a little problem, maybe something dramatic and gross.
- The goal is not winning
- In a dark and crooked world; the goal is not winning, the goal is not perfection, the goal is achieving; the goal should be consistency, persistency, and continuity. You must strive to be consistent and persist. You can just win once and relax. We must keep pressing. You must press until you win.
Stay blessed
