The Devil’s Plan: The Five D’s
My mom got me a new Bible for my birthday. It’s a “Life Application Study Bible,” a “New Living Translation.” It looks cool, but it has so many notes and graphs and sidebars that you can hardly tell where the actual Bible verses are.
I was flipping through and found this sidebar that particularly spoke to me:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Satan’s Plan Against Us
Doubt – Makes you question God’s Word and his goodness
Discouragement – Makes you look at your problems rather than at God
Diversion – Makes the wrong things seems attractive so that you will want them more than the right things
Defeat – Makes you feel like a failure so that you don’t even try
Delay – Makes you put off doing something so that it never gets done
---------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah, I am well acquainted with all of those, but especially with 2, 4 and 5.
