On Guard

We should always be on guard; for the many tactics used to tear us a part, from the spirit of God. We all know the enemy comes to kill, steal and destroy. Though Its not always done in a direct force. Sometimes its like a knife being turned in our heart. Brought forth by the very people we love. Though we'd like believe their intentions were different. Whatever the outcome. Its usually not exactly the way they meant. In this, we must be dressed in the whole armor of God. Putting our patience to use. Because these heart felt issues, can be a form of temptation. Leading to acts of corruption, damaging relations and spiritual separation.
While good intentions may be an excuse. The result can be the lost or trust in someone you don't want to loose. Though some relationships are not even meant for you.
This is not to be taken lightly, but bought to the light. So that we we're mindful of others and doing what's right. Spiritual awareness is vital. There is no way we can go from day to day without it, and not get lost.
It is the enemies job to get us off course and shatter our spirit before we leave this world.
So as you wake in the morning. Pay attention to where you are going. Realize where you're trying to get and the fact that you haven't got there yet. Realize there's spiritual forces. Some trying to destroy you. Depositing waste from any and all sources. Especially when you're doing something for the Lord.
Remember to be on guard and equipped with the proper tools. Abide in the Word as it Abides in You. Communicate with the father in all that you do and ask him to send his Holy Spirit out there before you.

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh. ( For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds:) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 2Corinthians 10: 3-5
If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. John 15: 7

For the word of God is quick and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Hebrews 4: 12

But ye brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should over take you as a thief.
Ye are all the children of light and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation. For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him. 1thessalonians 5: 4-10
