DANGER POINTS WHERE THE DEVIL CAN STRIKE
1. WEARINESS:
In Old Testament times the 'birthright' meant you
inherited twice as much of your father's
estate. Normally Esau wouldn't have considered selling his birthright, but he did in a state of exhaustion.
2. EXCITEMENT:
King Herod was seduced by
a dancing girl, threw caution to the wind and said,
'Whatever you ask me, I wil give you'.
She asked for the head of John the Baptist. And since he was king, Herod couldn't go back on his word. That moment of indulgence cost Herod his kingdom and his life.
Be careful where you go looking for excitement, and how you react when you find it. It can cost you the game!
3. DISCOURAGEMENT:
In a moment of discouragement Peter did what he swore he'd never do: deny his Lord.
Discouragement can make you say things you don't mean and do things that are out of character.
