Good morning today is the 13th day of the Daniel Fast and our focus is Being Alert
In the Army every soldier at some point and time in their career will experience guard duty. While on guard duty these soldiers are charged with protecting the other soldiers inside the wire. They must have a watchful eye and let no one inside the wire that has no business being there. As Christians the Bible tells us that sin lies at the door desiring to have us. When we pull guard duty over our spirit we are alert to temptations of the enemy. We don’t fall for his tricks. We’re prayerful and have a spirit of repentance. However, when we let our guard down sin pounces on us and we find ourselves wrapped up and tied up sin. On the battle field we always tell the soldiers “STAY ALERT STAY ALIVE”. That rings true today. On this Christian battlefield we need to stay alert so that we don’t fall into divers temptations.
Matthew 26:41 “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
