From Desert To Oasis

There  is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death. Proverbs 14:12

I have been a desert dweller before having lived in Arizona but that type of desert is not the type I am referring to right now but I will use it for purposes of spiritual illustration. A person can’t survive in the desert long unless he or she drinks water and lots of it. Our spiritual water of course  is the word of God and Christian fellowship.

You can wander away from the green lush grasses where God is watching over you and get caught up in a dry desert where you may remain and dwell if not careful. The way you would be able to is that you have forgotten your first love Jesus and have been enamored with wrong voices, bad choices, and the word of God is not as important as other things anymore. Satan is a great deceiver and you can’t be ignorant of the devices he uses to trip even a believer up.

There is a old hymn that says “Jesus is calling the weary to rest, hear him today, hear him today” but have you heard him or do you continue to get off course and follow the way of Satan and the world? Some aren’t even aware they are in the desert as Satan has made it seem right to them just like today’s verse. Run to the Lord and throw off chains of darkness that you know have no place in the life of a believer. Pray for your enemies and run your race to win.

PRAYER: I am not ignorant of the tricks Satan uses to capture the hearts of everyone to include friends and dear family I love. I know he is a divider and has used politics to divide families. I pray right now for the demons of darkness and hell to leave my family and friends alone and the truth to set them free. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
