DON'T GET TOO COMFORTABLE HERE

 
 
1 Peter 2:11
 
"Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul." ESV
 
If we are strangers and aliens in this world that implies we belong to the heavenly realm and not the earthly one. If we allow earthly things to grab our affections, Godly things will fade. Then we are at great risk for again becoming captives to this world. It is crucial to stay away from those things that tempt us, and to remember we are only travelling through this world.
 
Heavenly Father, the things of this world appeal so much to our senses that we get caught up in these worldly things with barely a thought. Forgive us for our weak flesh. Help us to stir our faith through the Word so that we will be able to say "no" to worldly things and not let them get in the way of our walk with You. In Christ's name we pray, Amen.
