Bible Verse of The Day – 8-13-20

John 10:10 (NKJV) 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

Why does the thief come? To steal, to kill, to destroy.

This is his sole reason for coming.

Knowing this, we have to keep him out and away from us. The Bible tells us how to do this in two words, submit and resist.

James 4:7 (NKJV) 7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

We submit ourselves, our problem, our flesh to God. And we resist the devil by obeying what God tells us to do in His word when we are confronted with temptation and sin.

It’s not easy to do at times. But it’s worth the effort.

Our flesh will fight, scream and cry. We will get angry, have an attitude and sometimes not listen to what God is telling us to do.

But, if we stand our ground, resist the devil and his attempt to pull us into sin, we will come out winning.

We will walk in this “more abundant life” that Jesus gives to us, and not look back!

Submit and resist; two words to remember every day that will give us a closer relationship with God.
