Proverbs 6:16-19 There are six things the LORD hates, seven that are detestable to him; haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies, and a man who stirs up dissension among brothers.
We know six things that agitates the LORD; what everyday things do we we allow to agitate us and take away our peace?
Philippians 4:7 And the PEACE of GOD, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Really, we have the PEACE of GOD, and I allow the washing machine that spins off balance, to disrupt this peace. In my defense, this loud banging and clanking, off balanced washing machine, also agitates Boh my Chesapeake Bay Retriever. Boh, positions herself in front of the washing machine barking, demanding that I correct the problem, now! Boh`s barking agitates me even more than the washing machine. What is wrong with me? I have the PEACE of GOD......
Why do we allow such annoying little agitations to interrupt our peace? What about stupid drivers, long lines, slow computers, bad weather, changing plans, waiting at red lights, I could go on for hours with this list, but why? Once we opens our hearts to agitation, we have opened the door and invited Satan to take control! Do we really want to hang out under his authority? No, thank you very much!
Romans 16:20 The God of PEACE will soon crush Satan under your feet.
Hum, Romans 16-20, I`m going to write that and tape it to the top of my washing machine, now if only Boh could read!
Stop and think about God`s promises, before your agitations hook you up with Satan!
1 John 5:18 We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin; the one who was born of God keeps him safe, and the evil one cannot harm him.
So long Satan, you are not allowed to bother me; take a long walk on a short pier! I prefer to hang out with God......AMEN.
