Now the
Holy Spirit tells us clearly that in the last times some will turn away from
what we believe; they will follow lying spirits and teachings that come from
demons. 1 Timothy 4:1. Continue...
It is clear that we are living in the last days. All around us, we see prophecies being fulfilled before our very eyes that Jesus and the prophets gave us. The Bible warns that in the last days things will go from bad to worse. The Scripture also warns that one of the signs of the last days will be that many people shall fall from the faith. They will fall away for reasons such as following a false prophet, loving pleasure more than God or just going to church without a relationship with Christ.
The
question is could you or I ever become one of those who fall away in the last
days? The potential, even the inclination, to fall is real for each one of us.
I have the potential to fall. You have it as well.
This is why we must give careful attention to the potential pitfalls that can easily trap us and take us away from the Lord. We must be aware of the schemes and strategies of Satan as we are living in the last days.
This is not
a time to be playing games with God and living in half-hearted commitment to
the things of God. The only way to survive as a Christian, and even flourish in
these last days, is to be completely committed to Jesus Christ. Otherwise, we
will be easy targets for the tactics, strategies, and flaming arrows of the
devil.
Are you
playing games with God? How real in your walk with God? Let us all make a
commitment to stand firm in Christ in these last and perilous days. Shalom!
