We are living in perilous times and Peter exhorts us to “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour” (1 Peter 5:8). Jesus said, “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy” (John 10:10). Most of us readily recognize the devil when he comes like a roaring lion or a thief, but we risk being deceived when he masquerades as an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14). In times like these we desperately need the Spirit and the Word to warn us impending danger.
“The statutes of the LORD are trustworthy,
— Psalm 19:7 and 11 (NIV)
making wise the simple…
By them your servant is warned;
in keeping them there is great reward.”
Lord Jesus help us to live in the Word lest the enemy deceive us. In Your holy name we pray. Amen.
