“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith.”
1Peter 5:8
What does it mean to be vigilant? Well I would suggest it means to be constantly on guard because Satan lives for tripping up believers. As this verse says he is like a roaring lion looking to devour someone.
Have you opened the door to Satan in your life by your thoughts, words, or actions? Have you put God on the back burner?
There is a real Satan. There is good and evil. Temptation is real. If you have strayed from the path of righteousness and fallen prey to the enemy you can come back and God wants you to. Where are you at today? Is it time to cry out to God for a rescue?
PRAYER: Lord temptation to do wrong is all around me. Help me look straight ahead to the cross. I pray for those who know they need to turn around their lives but are caught in web of Satan to be loosed. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
