Stand Victoriously Against The Enemy - Sunday's Dose - 11th June 2017

"Teach what is in accord with sound doctrine" - (Titus 2:1).

Thoughts for Today

Many people feel as though we are living in very ungodly times, and they are right. Our world is changing at a very rapid pace. At times, the moral decline of our society seems overwhelming. The lack of true love, respect, and worship for the Lord grows ever stronger.

While these times certainly can seem desperate, they also are some of the most exciting times to be alive. The opportunity to know Christ and to make Him known is greater than any other time in history. Truly, the Lord has provided a broad door for us to travel through as we witness His love at work in our world.

However, with this opened door comes a responsibility—one that demands us to take seriously our call to follow Christ.

Many have drifted in their faith by failing to guard their minds against Satan's evil thoughts, suggestions, and feelings. With little to no thought of the consequences, they have opened their minds to the enemy's temptations and have suffered the consequences of their sin.

Paul sent Titus to the island of Crete for one reason: to establish a plumb line of godly Truth and morality. The believers in Crete, like so many New Testament Christians, came from a pagan background. Therefore, the temptation to compromise their walk of faith with Christ was ever increasing.

While the power of temptation was broken on the cross, we must remain keen to the enemy's tactics. Begin each day by putting on the "full armor" of God (Ephesians 6); then you will know how to stand victoriously against the enemy.

Prayer: Our Loving Heavenly Father, 

Thank You that I have victory over the enemy, and through Jesus Christ have the power to live with hope for the future! Thank you for hearing and answering my prayer. Gratefully, In Jesus Loving Name I Pray, Amen."

Have a Blessed Sunday and God Bless you.
