HE CAN FEEL YOU…!

WEDNESDAY
MI DAILY DEVOTION
HE CAN FEEL YOU…!
(I John 2: 16) “For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.”

God can feel you! He’s been there! We have temptations that had been going on for years over and over. It’s like a cycle for months or days, but one thing for sure; it would be from the same source and will serve the same purpose. But the comfort that we have is Christ who went through the same temptation. And we will have the same resolution to the problem- the power of God, His Holy Spirit and the power of the Blood of the Lamb. We are at war with the enemy- the devil. The Apostle John said: “For all that is in the world is the lust of the flesh…” When Jesus came down into this world to die for our sins, Jesus was in the flesh, the same flesh that we have. Jesus did not have a different emotion when He was here. He went through the same feeling as we are. It means that Jesus knew exactly what you feel when you have problems with the flesh even as the enemy try to make you live in the flesh. It means He knows exactly how you felt and what you feel when you are under fiery trials and temptations. He knows exactly what it means when you are struggling with something. He knows that your flesh, your minds and your hearts affects your physical functions and nerves. The world, the flesh and the pride of life is of the devil. The real enemies are not the pornographic materials and garbage on your screen in front of you; they’re just the tools of the devil and his strategy to destroy you. Those are just part of his evil devices to destroy you, your home and the future of your children. (I Corinthians 10:13) “There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.”
