4 Ways the devil tries to destroy us: The 1st "D"

Recently we were with some friends who shared with us the 4 "D's" that the devil uses to try to "destroy" us. It created good conversation and focused our prayers. The first D: Do you ever struggle wondering if a distraction in your life is from God or from satan?  Sometimes I do.  Recognizing distractions that are FROM God and those that are NOT isn't always easy. 

John 10:10 - The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy.

1. Distraction (defintion): something that prevents you from giving your full attention.

It could be any of these things: interruption, disruption, mental confusion, disturbance, diversion, agitation, anxiety.

Lord help us to recognize distraction in our lives. Help us...

To be Focused

To have Clarity

To be alert

Hebrews 12:2 - Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfector of our faith.

1 Cor. 16:13 - Be on your guard. Stand firm in the faith. Be brave. Be Strong.

2 Cor. 10:3-5 - For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.

Pray for Focus
