Fragile Faith
Satan’s vision is for you to fail… But failure is not just his goal, it is his strategy.
Satan uses failure to distract us from God and his truths; a spiritual eclipse coming between us and the light.
The strength of the shadow
We see examples of spiritual eclipses:
- Peter’s denial of Jesus, when his vision of God’s purposes is distorted.
- Israelites forgetting God’s miracles and faltering before entering the promise land.
- David’s failure
The shadows can lead us to do unthinkable things.
Diagnosing the shadows
Left unaddressed, shadows will make us sick; therefore, it is paramount we accurately diagnose what is wrong with us.
We may feel paralyzed trying to understand what is wrong with us.
The world can’t tell you how to be a man because it doesn’t believe there is an original intent for what a man was created to be.
Takeaways
Left unchecked, the shadows of our lives will consume us and make us do unimaginable things. We must be able to recognize what are shadows are and seek God to treat them; the world cannot do enough to help us.
