Yield not to temptation, but hold fast to God's unchanging hand! Temptation is sent to destroy your peace, rob your joy, and to disrupt your faith. It presents itself as gold but quickly turns into to dust. It appeals to the eye yet steals from your life. Stand on God's word, resist the enemy and he will flee, and pray for strength to ignore the tempting urges. For while it may feel good and look good on the surface, it won't last long and leaves unwarranted pain wherever it is welcomed.

Greed and Envy is a tactic of the enemy to catch us off guard. Although these two tactics are not the only ones, we must know that God has given us the power to keep them at bay. But we must stand on His promises, stay in faith, walk in obedience, and deny ourselves. We will never be perfect, but God can perfect those things that concerns us, that come to kill, steal, and destroy us according to John 10:10. Will you let God lead? Will you trust God's plan? Let God show you the way because the enemy will never defeat the God we serve!

Psalms 103:2 tells us to , "Bless the Lord, oh our soul and forget not his benefits! Let me tell you, it pays to stay in faith! It pays to stay in obedience to God! It pays to do right and not allow your faith to waiver! God is up to something, and it's going to take a "Right Now Faith" to bring it to pass! God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him and His blesses are Ephesians 3:20 type blessings! Don't listen to the world's way of thinking! Tap into your faith jar and stand bold on His promises because His benefits are plentiful, and it PAYS to STAY in FAITH! Won't God do it!!! I know that He has, He can, and He will!

Be Blessed and Definitely Encouraged!
