The heart of the believer is tender and needs to be constantly watched over to avoid corruption and defilement. When God justifies a man, and makes him righteous at salvation, He also gives him the charge to keep himself pure. Failing in the responsibility to take away the things that have the capacity to defile a man will eventually result in eternal damnation. The believer is therefore expected to eschew evil and to abstain from all appearance of it, always.

There is no better way to start anything than to start with God. When you start your day with God, he will guide and keep you from falling into the unseen traps of the enemy. I encourage you to begin every day with the one who knows tomorrow, and your steps will be ordered in the way you should walk to fulfil God's purpose for your life. Forgetting the failures of the past, take advantage of the new day to begin afresh with God. Every day started with God is bound to end well for you.

David was a valiant man: he killed a lion, a bear and Goliath without any sophisticated weapon. He was a prophet, a priest and a king yet the spirit of Jezebel cast him down and he was spiritually wounded. Reading the Psalms, and other records about David in the Bible, you will discover that he was very spiritual and close to God. So why did he fall? He yielded to the temptation presented by the spirit of Jezebel.

Compared to eternity, long life on earth is very brief, so let us learn to number our days, that we may know how to live. It will not be long before your pilgrimage on earth comes to an end. Where is your great grandfather? If he's still around, then surely his father is no more. And one day it will be your turn to expire. This world is not your home; you are here on a journey that will eventually come to an end someday.

Shortly after the last supper, before going to mount Olives, Jesus revealed to his disciples that they would all forsake Him that night. Despite Peter's response in verses 33 and 35 of Matthew chapter 26, he both forsook and denied the Lord, in the end. False prophets, teachers and apostles are walking about like wolves in sheep's clothing seeking whom they may deceive. Brethren, you must watch and pray so that the day of the Lord does not come upon you unprepared.
