BEWARE OF JUICY OPPORTUNITIES
Text: Judges 4:17-21
By: Adeaga O. Favour
Not all good things come from God but all good and perfect things are from Him. When things are going so smoothly, for examples, more pays from different angles, accelerated raises from work, some time, you need to pause to confirm if God is in them all.
At the time when God would have His children leave Egypt and serve Him, Pharaoh commanded "Let there more work be laid upon the men, that they may labour therein; and let them not regard vain words," Exo 5:9.
Knowing well that Satan, always, does not want us to do God's will, he sets baits in form of juicy things to get our attention off what God's asking us to do and as Paul encouraged that we be not ignorant of the devil's devices (2Cor 2:11), we must constantly be on the watch, sensitive so we don't miss out.
REFLECTION FOR TODAY:
Not all that glitters is gold
PRAY:
Father, I receive grace to be watchful and sensitive in all things.
