Whatever draws your attention away..
From God and His will, is a tactic from the pit of Hell. It does more harm and no eternal good for your soul.
John8:12 says" when Jesus spoke again to the People, He said, I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have light of life".(NIV)
Irrespective of the category the thing that occupies your heart falls into, if it contradicts the will and ways of God it is an evidence of darkness.
If you are of the light you walk where the light illuminates you dont walk away from it.
Life has different stages and it will take a strong determination to stay focused and also continual requirement and glorifying use of the Grace of God.
When you are easily enticed by mundane goodies, you willingly walk into darkness. You cannot walk with God whilst you dwell in the dark. You must renounce and move away from darkness to actually stay in God's Light.
John1:5"the light shines in the darkness and the darkness can never extinguish it".(NLT)
When you are of the Light(God), the world will never understand you. You do things in a way the world would either refer to as weird, too spiritual, early stage of mental issue, not in vogue and so on...
You need to continually ask God for his strenght and grace in life less you fall for the devil dubiously. Many or few things will be brought your way to divert your attention from the light you have to be awake spiritually.
The only thing that can keep you awake in spirit is the word of God. It is not just reading it alone but fitting into it in all you do. That is allowing your life to Preach the word of God.
Heaven weeps on every soul that walks into darkness. Its only now on Earth that you can amend your ways.
Heaven rejoice at every soul that walks away from the darkness into light.
Its time to take an MOT of your life. Do a general check, does your way glorify God?
Does your way prove you are a child of the Light?
What are the things that block and keeps drawing you farther from The Light of The world?
Think! Think!! Think!!!
Prayer:
Almighty father, saviour of all, open my eyes to see what keeps me away from your light.
Father give me the strenght to be able to come back to you and never leave in Jesus name.
Redirect my step into your light and take me away from darkness and all that surrounds it in Jesus name.
Amen!!!!!!
