Why Do You Allow Them?

My children, you are not battling the distractions sent against you hard enough.

The enemy knows what you are called to do and when (I think the when is approximate in this), but you do not. So he sends distractions to prevent you getting things done for My Kingdom. 

Do you not see his hand in these things? 

Why then do you allow them to succeed?

James 4:7-10

• ⁷ Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
• ⁸ Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.
• ⁹ Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness.
• ¹⁰ Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.

1 Peter 5:8-10

• ⁸ Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
• ⁹ Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
• ¹⁰ But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.

Ephesians 5:15-17

·        ¹⁵ See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,

·        ¹⁶ Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

·        ¹⁷ Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
