Stay focused, don’t take short cuts, otherwise what you loose might be more that you can take.

Genesis 16

Sometimes out hearts convince us that what we are doing is innocent, but the message you are selling out does not indicate that you are innocent.

As God saved us, there are things He expects from us, He expects us to keep in the right walk of life.

When did you encroach on parameters not designed for you?
Genesis 16:3, Hagar was not supposed to go in with Abraham, even though she was given to Abraham.
Hagar was available, vulnerable, easy to access. Be aware of vulnerable looking women.

Genesis 3, When Eve saw the fruit, she saw it was;

  1. Beautiful
  2. The fruit looked good to eat
Beware of looks, not everything that looks good to eat is sweet. 
Make a decision

You are not exempt from attack, temptation, run for your life, don’t stay there and negotiate. 

Things that are not you’re are not yours, leave them alone
. You don’t know the consequences of getting off the direction of life the Lord has placed you on.

Be wise, anything that attracts you when the Lord compels you not to go, but you insist on going ahead, then He let’s you go on your own.

Proverbs 7:10
Keep on the straight path of good conscience.

Before taking up an action, ask yourself what your motive is.

Jesus was tempted in all ways, but didn’t fall short. 

Life and death is in the power if the tongue.
Counter temptation with the word of the Lord. Its you to pull out the sword of the spirit and fight for yourself.
