Galatians 4:17-20 17 Those false teachers who are so anxious to win your favor are not doing it for your good. They are trying to shut you off from me so that you will pay more attention to them. 18 Now it's wonderful if you are eager to do good, and especially when I am not with you. 19 But oh, my dear children! I feel as if I am going through labor pains for you again, and they will continue until Christ is fully developed in your lives. 20 How I wish I were there with you right now, so that I could be more gentle with you. But at this distance I frankly don't know what else to do. (NLT) In your daily life make sure that Christ is coming first. There are those who want to distract you from living for Christ. Spend daily time in the word so that you can discern God’s truth from those who speak lies. Satan wants nothing more than for you to not be truly living for Christ. If he can get you off track just a little bit in time he can get you way off course. Stay the narrow path, keep Christ in front of you and follow His word and His lead. The three key areas that Satan works on in your life are the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life. The flesh is temporary, the eye can deceive you and pride will make you fall. Therefore work on not living for the pleasure of the flesh, or desiring the things you see and be humble in spirit before your Lord and Savior. Live in such a way that you seek Christ and do what pleases the Father. Sponsored by Men’s Ministry Our Mission is to Lead Men into a Growing Relationship with Jesus Christ
