Be On Guard -Prof. Kent Hodge

Be on guard 1 Peter 5:8-9

“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Whom resist steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.”

Guard your thinking
Proverbs 4:23
“Keep your heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.”

“Your can’t stop birds flying over your head (temptation), but you can stop birds from nesting in you hair (your mediations).”

The enemy wants you to think you are not vulnerable.
Instead, set boundaries to protect yourself.
Don’t date until you know God is leading you to the person you will marry.
When married, stick together like glue.

Don’t listen to messages from people who say they have gone to heaven or hell. Instead, read the scriptures and grow in your personal understanding.

The Word alone is our guide. "Your word is a lamp to me feet." Psalm 119:105
