A Daily Devotional About pushing against sin… Mark 9:42 "And if
anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be
better for him to be thrown into the sea with a large millstone tied around his
neck. (NIV) Drug pushers push people to
use drugs. We call them "pushers" for good reason. Sin merchants in
the media push sinful ideas, thoughts, and behaviors. Ordinary people push sin
by encouraging sinful acts and behavior on the part of others. When you face the
truth and tell the truth, you can see the pushers of sin attacking from every
side. Bad as this situation is, we are also pushed by the temptations of Satan.
Clearly, the dark forces so prevalent in the world today are trying to push us
away from God. What are we to do in the face of all these efforts to push us
away from God? We are to push back when sin pushes us. Each of us has the
capability to push back against every form of darkness. We may feel weakened and
helpless when the sin pushers push against us. However, we are not helpless.
When we pray, we may be in agony from the wiles and temptations seeking to
destroy us. However, when we pray, God hears us and He responds. We push back
against Satan and the darkness with humble prayer. |
