Peter 5:8

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

Be sober, which means to be alert to the devil's temptations and distractions. We have all been subjected to the vanity of power, wealth and greed. Everyone who is honest with themselves will admit that they have desired something that was not good for them to have. The real winners in life are those who choose to live for God rather than for themselves.

They are great distractions in the world, and I have come to understand just how powerful those distractions can be in my own life. Every addiction, every strong desire, every tempting smile from a handsome man or pretty woman could distract even the best of us to entertain what it would be like to pursue these things, completely outside the Providence and Grace of Jesus Christ.

What is the solution for distractions that would derail us from fulfilling our God given destinies? The love and grace of Jesus Christ. He is the only one who can help us with our weaknesses. He is the only one who understands fully what it's like to be tempted and tortured by trials and tribulations and yet still succeed wonderfully, defeating the darkness, the devil and his demons once and for all, because of His love and passion for you and me.

What is it like to believe that you have everything that you ever wanted and needed and yet still lose it all because of a deep and terrible destiny?  This is the judgment of every unbeliever who will never accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Every soul that comes into the world has the choice to live for God or for their own desires,  to receive the gift of everlasting life, peace, joy and love, or to die away from the presence of God into the darkness, existing in fear, suffering, and self hatred forever and ever…

What are the great distractions in this world? Anything or anyone that would prevent you from accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savoir over your life. You know what it is that is keeping you from believing the truth. Those desires are stirring within you right now as you read these words. Has your life really been as fulfilling and as perfect as you have claimed it to be? 

Take time to listen to the word of God and then decide if Jesus’s peace, love and grace for you is worthy of your attention and praise. Does Jesus love you? What can you do to return that love and grace that He has for you?  The only thing that you can do is accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Personal Savior right now:

Prayer of salvation:

Dear Lord Jesus, I need you, please come into my heart right now. I am sorry for all of my sins, I give you my life and all of my hopes and dreams. I am willing to live for you. Thank you Lord Jesus, I believe that I am saved… HALLELUJAH!     AMEN
