When God gives us a direct word of instruction, we must remain confident in what He said and also be aware of the enemy’s attempts to stop us. Shortsightedness and a desire for quick gratification can divert us from God’s plan for our lives and cause confusion. Stay watchfu and sober of mind. Hold onto your peace, joy and expectancy for what’s to come!

Therefore let the one who thinks he stands firm [immune to temptation, being overconfident and self-righteous], take care that he does not fall [into sin and condemnation]. 13 No temptation [regardless of its source] has overtaken or enticed you that is not common to human experience [nor is any temptation unusual or beyond human resistance]; but God is faithful [to His word—He is compassionate and trustworthy] 1 Corinthians 10:12-13 (AMP)
