“Then she discovered the llama—the aggressive, funny-looking, afraid-of-nothing llama...’Llamas don’t appear to be afraid of anything,’ she said. ‘When they see something, they put their head up and walk straight toward it. That is aggressive behavior as far as the coyote is concerned, and they won’t have anything to do with that... Coyotes are opportunists, and llamas take that opportunity away.’“
. Apparently llamas know the truth of what James writes: “Resist the Devil, and he will flee from you” (4:7). The moment we sense his attack through temptation is the moment we should face it and deal with it for what it is. . When Jesus was in the desert for 40 days with no food, the devil tempted him. Some of us, after only a few hours of no food are ill as hornets. I can’t even imagine 40 days without anything. Only the Holy Spirit can provide such perseverance through an experience that intense. Despite all that, even when He was tempted He was filled up with the Word. He held his head high and didn’t give in to the devil’s crazy wiles. Because He remained in the Word, he took that opportunity of temptation away. . We too have that ability if we stay filled up. There’s never any reason that we should ever be spiritually famished. He’s given us everything we need! MATERIALS:

"These you may eat, of all that are in the waters. Everything in the waters that has fins and scales, whether in the seas or in the rivers, you may eat. But anything in the seas or the rivers that does not have fins and scales, of the swarming creatures in the waters and of the living creatures that are in the waters, is detestable to you.” |
On the way to work this morning I listened to "Take Me In" by @Kutless and boy did I need it! Lots of changes are happening right now and this made me realize how separate we need to be from the world. It's not enough to know of #God but we need to have a personal relationship with Him- that's what separates the real Christians from the rest. Because He sent His son to die for our sins we no longer have to go through a mediator to commune with our Creator. blessed. Take me past the outer courts Into the Holy Place Past the brazen altar Lord I want to see your face Pass me by the crowds of people And the Priests who sing your praise I hunger and thirst for your righteousness But it's only found in one place Take me into the holy of holies Take me in by the blood of the lamb Take me into the holy of holies Take the coal, touch my lips, here I am |
