Today’s Thought “The Blame Game” G. Ward 1 Peter 5:8 Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Holy God is; All Powerful, Maker and Sustainer of the universe, All Knowing and Everywhere at all times; not the Devil. Believers understand this more as each day is presented, building greater trust of His governance. The Devil offers deception, primarily through systems (2 Cor.4:4), because he can’t be everywhere and the Savior defeated him at Calvary. He yet mocks God, particularly in view of the Almighty’s generosity unto man; knowing mankind’s rebellion won’t identify the Gift as complete, even arrogantly covetous of things and conditions from others (2 Cor.5:7); ultimately perpetuating deception penetrated, doing the Devil’s work. He therefore is without consideration in attacking (personally), particularly when many awaken to God’s Word with a similitude of a self-help book to only find those passages deemed motivational, discounting sermons and teaching forums embodying eternality and many awaken on worship occasions allowing others to see spiritual lethargy/mediocrity, as they determine a headache’s stoppage from attending, to then grow older with chants of perplexity that questions “I don’t know why these children won’t go to church, I raised them in it?”
