\o/ \o/~~~~~~~~(((( Hidup oleh Roh, Dipimpin oleh Roh, Gal.5:25 ))))~~~~~~~\o/ \o/ From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>   Gods Work Ministry Inspirational and Encouragement E-Mail Dear Friend, The temptations that come before God's children are much greater than that of the world.  The people of the world who don't know Christ don't offer the same threat to the devil that Christians do and so he has less reason to bring his temptations before them.  Even though the believer has power through the blood of Jesus Christ, if he does not stand in his authority, the enemy will find a way to enter his life through his temptations.  It is important that we realize we have a real enemy who is trying to take our life off course and into the course of destruction and death.  We must be vigilant in keeping our mind and heart focused on the Lord and determined to not allow the enemy to sidetrack the plans and purposes that God has for us.  Through the Blood of Christ and the positive confession of our mouth, we can be victorious over every obstacle of the enemy. (Revelation 12:10-11) I hope this story ministers to your heart and challenges you to never allow the devil to make you want to quit following the Lord. BARNYARD DUCK A flock of wild ducks were flying in formation, heading south for the winter.  They formed a beautiful V in the sky, and were admired by everyone who saw them from below. One day, Wally, one of the wild ducks in the formation, spotted something on the ground that caught his eye.  It was a barnyard with a flock of tame ducks who lived on the farm.  They were waddling around on the ground, quacking merrily and eating corn that was thrown on the ground for them every day.  Wally liked what he saw. "It sure would be nice to have some of that corn," he thought to himself. "And all this flying is very tiring. I'd like to just waddle around for a while." So after thinking it over a while, Wally left the formation of wild ducks, made a sharp dive to the left, and headed for the barnyard.  He landed among the tame ducks, and began to waddle around and quack merrily.  He also started eating corn.  The formation of wild ducks continued their journey South, but Wally didn't care. "I'll rejoin them when they come back North in a few months", he said to himself. Several months went by and sure enough, Wally looked up and spotted the flock of wild ducks in formation, heading north.  They looked beautiful up there.  And Wally was tired of the barnyard.  It was muddy and everywhere he waddled, nothing but duck doo doo. "It's time to leave," said Wally. So Wally flapped his wings furiously and tried to get airborne.  But he had gained some weight from all his corn-eating, and he hadn't exercised his wings much either.  He finally got off the ground, but he was flying too low and slammed into the side of the barn.  He fell to the ground with a thud and said to himself, "Oh, well, I'll just wait until they fly south in a few months.  Then I'll rejoin them and become a wild duck again." But when the flock flew overhead once more, Wally again tried to lift himself out of the barnyard, but failed.  He simply didn't have the strength.  Every winter and every spring, he saw his wild duck friends flying overhead, and they would call out to him.  But his attempts to leave were all in vain. Eventually Wally no longer paid any attention to the wild ducks flying overhead.  He hardly even noticed them.  He had, after all, become a barnyard duck. Author Unknown Sin may look good for a season, but in the end there will be nothing left but heartbreak.  The devil will keep you longer than you wanted to stay, destroy every gift and talent that you possess and will use you until there is nothing left.  I encourage you to be determined in your quest of following the Lord.  The temptations of the devil come very subtly and seem harmless in the beginning, but when pursued will ultimately ruin your life.  Don't allow that to happen.  Stay in formation with your brothers and sisters in Christ and know that following the straight and narrow path is not only pleasing to the Lord, but will also help protect you from the enemy's traps and temptations. (James 1:13-17) (John 10:10) (Matthew 7:13-14) Read and meditate on these scriptures: 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 "For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ." Proverbs 14:8-12 "The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way: but the folly of fools is deceit.  Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is favour.  The heart knoweth his own bitterness; and a stranger doth not intermeddle with his joy.  The house of the wicked shall be overthrown: but the tabernacle of the upright shall flourish.  There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death." Psalm 46:1-3 "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.  Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;  Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof." Psalm 51:9-12 "Hide Thy face from my sins and blot out all mine iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from Thy presence; and take not Thy Holy Spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation; and uphold me with Thy free spirit." All of these scriptures can be found in the King James Version Bible.
