Joshua 6:18

Deuteronomy 20:17
\nbut you shall devote them to complete destruction, the Hittites and the Amorites, the Canaanites and the Perizzites, the Hivites and the Jebusites, as the Lord your God has commanded, that they may not teach you to do according to all their abominable practices that they have done for their gods, and so you sin against the Lord your God<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 Chronicles 2:7
\nThe son of Carmi:Achan, the troubler of Israel, who broke faith in the matter of the devoted thing<\/strong><\/p>\n

Joshua 7:10
\nThe Lord said to Joshua, \u201cGet up! Why have you fallen on your face? Israel has sinned; they have transgressed my covenant that I commanded them; they have taken some of the devoted things; they have stolen and lied and put them among their own belongings.<\/strong> Therefore the people of Israel cannot stand before their enemies.<\/p>\n

1 Corinthians 4:5
\nwait until the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of the heart<\/strong><\/p>\n

There will always be temptations before us. \u00a0Some of those we can turn from and never look back again. \u00a0Others are seam to be right in front of us all the time and we can’t seem to shake them from our thoughts and wants. \u00a0Each day seems to be a battle against our will and what God wants for us. \u00a0Some of this want comes from our sinful nature and desire. \u00a0The barrier to acting on these desires is God’s word and our desire and faith to honor and glorify Him. \u00a0However we live in a sinful culture which easily can easily weaken our barrier if this is what is feeding our heart, mind, and soul. \u00a0Think about it we spend all our waking hours in a lost world and what it sees as important. \u00a0Trust me most if not all of what it chases after is contrary to God’s honor and glory. \u00a0This is why we are continually reminded to write His laws and promises on our heart. \u00a0Why we are reminded to meditated on these day and night. Why we are to write these on our door posts and teach them to our children. \u00a0Why we are to continually worship Him. \u00a0Why we are to be in continual prayer with Him. How are we to be a light to this world if those around us see no difference in us. \u00a0How are we to recognize what is right, pure, holy, safe, wonderful, worth pursuing, if we don’t spend time with God and His word. \u00a0Trust me one day a week in study, prayer, and fellowship with brothers and sisters in Christ will never equip us to fight the battles we face each day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
