Reading, Writing, And Arithmetic

 

Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour.  1 Peter 5:8

School days, school days was a cute song I learned as a child. Before the massive Department of Education was created in 1964, school was the basics without government intervention and attempting to push agendas. Wait Becky you are not supposed to get political,  and relax,  I am not going to. 

My point in this devotion is to remind everyone there is good and evil. Evil is run and orchestrated by Satan himself who doesn’t care about you or me or our children or our grandchildren. His purpose is to kill, steal, and destroy and enjoys doing it when you are lethargic and  asleep at the wheel so to speak. He tries to plant seeds of doubt just like he did in the Garden of Eden when He said “Did God really say” and yes He really did. 

Ever since the fall of mankind when sin entered into the world mankind has often been at war with their fellow man over whose opinion is correct instead of fighting against the real enemy Satan.’ Try not to hate or get fearful but to pray. Be aware of what is being taught in schools because you might be surprised. Be aware of field trips children go on as well. Each day wake up and give thanks and pray you will be made aware of what is going on in the world that sometimes is never opposed. Stand firm, gird your loins with truth and run your race to win. 

PRAYER: Father I ask that you wake people up to dangers in our society that could steal our precious children’s minds away from us. Pray for parents to stay alert. Give me guidance as well. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
