Don’t get distracted!
But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; 2 Timothy 3:14
I know way too many Christians getting distracted by the temptations old Satan throws at us. The distractions are many: control, money, sex, and fame to name a few. These in and of themselves are not the problem. The problem is when we don’t handle each one of them Biblically.
Christian, there is nothing wrong with leadership but when that leadership position goes to your head that you beat people down to exalt yourself—you have a problem. We are not to let money be the motivation in our service. We serve Him because He called us to a certain place for a certain time. We are to keep our intimate relationship with our spouse— the one God gave us. However, if you have been divorced, God wants you to keep your intimate relationship with the spouse you have right now—FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE! And if by chance you do get famous, don’t let it go to your head! Stay humble, bring honor to God, and stay focused on the things which you where taught!
The, Oh look a squirrel mentality is killing the church! Don’t get distracted! GET UP, GET READY, and GO TO CHURCH! Stay focused! CONTINUE THOU!
