“And Jesus answered and said to him, “It has been said, ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God.” ”Now when the devil had ended every temptation, he departed from Him until an opportune time…” Luke 4:12-13 (NKJV)
Previously on this subject, we took the time to establish the importance of giving no room to the devil. As simple as that might sound, it holds the key to stopping the devil in his tracks. Unfortunately, many believers are ignorant of the schemes of the devil. Some don’t even believe that the devil exists and have inevitably fallen for his deceptions. Many have exchanged their souls for some tempting offer from the devil.
However, this isn’t the plan of God for you as a Christian. Stand firm in your faith, and let the word of God be the principle by which you live. Let the word of God guide you and satisfy you. Above all, watch and pray so that you do not fall for the schemes of the devil. Do not jump at every offer because it fulfills your desire. Check every offer that comes to you with the eyes of the spirit so that you do not end up giving up your faith in God for material things that have no eternal security. Do not give the devil room to toy with your life, do not allow what you get from the devil take away the nature of God that is within you and the glorious life that awaits you after this life. Hallelujah!
Today’s Rhema
Give God the opportunity to manifest Himself through you by giving no room to the devil!
