Word of Encouragement for Every New Day ~ 28 July 2008

Letting your defenses down. When we let our defenses down, the weapons of mass destruction are easier to penetrate. Today’s word of encouragement is discovering why we would allow our defenses to come down, and then take the necessary measures to rebuild stronger defenses. Is our excuses: I’m only human. I’m not perfect. I’m not really sinning, I’m just looking. Is it possible that we let our defenses down because we miss our old lifestyle, or do we feel empty inside, maybe we have compromised our relationship with God, or could it be that the “Christian lifestyle” is so restrictive? I pray that today’s word of encouragement would allow us to find out why we are letting our defenses down. ONLY YOU KNOW WHY YOU LET YOUR DEFENSES DOWN. Secondly, I hope that we would take the necessary measures to rebuild stronger defenses. Galatians 6:7 Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Let’s stop wallowing in our sin, getting ourselves down. Instead let us remember Galatians 6:7. God CANNOT BE MOCKED, and we reap what we sow. If we are sowing our sinful nature we will reap more of our sinful nature. Let us be encouraged today, that we may fall, but we are only going to get up and become stronger. Let’s not compromise. It is time we stop playing games. © July 2008 Shaun Lee. www.everynation.org.sg archive: www.shauntzen.blogspot.com
