Following our example they may be saved or suffer great loss.

When we sin and constantly make mistakes. We are not the only one who has to pay the consequences of what we do or say.

We must be careful as we live each day. We must arise and dress in the full armor of God as we go our way.

We must stay in the state of constant prayer trusting in God to protect our day.

 Even as Christians the nature of sin is still here.  And the wiles of the devil and his fiery darts are still aimed straight for our hearts.

His desire is to deceive us and cause us to sin and make so many mistakes that we lose the battle and allow him to win.

We must live every day and every hour under the strength of Holy Ghost power. We must trust Almighty God who is our strong tower.

Because the world is out there watching and waiting for us to fail. And it’s only in the strength of Christ Jesus that we can prevail.

Our life’s example can be a bright lite that leads others to the foot of Jesus’s cross.

Following our example they may be saved or suffer great loss.

We can lead them to heaven by staying faithful to God, but if we fall away we will cause them to be lost.

So you see living in sin does not just hurt us, it causes others to pay its high cost.

The Holy Bible says eternity can be lived in heaven or hell.

So let us be careful to live life on earth and in Jesus to live it well.

Ephesians 6:10-18

New International Version (NIV)

The Armor of God

¹⁰ Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. ¹¹ Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. ¹² For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. ¹³ Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. ¹⁴ Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, ¹⁵ and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. ¹⁶ In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith,with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. ¹⁷ Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

¹⁸ And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
