Don't Allow The Distractions In Your Life To Cause You To Derail From The Plan and Purpose Of God In Your Life.....

What will you allow to lead you today?    We have to get to the place where we understand that the enemy is not after our houses, our cars, our jobs, or our money.    He is after our lives.   When will we get to the complete understanding that the sole root of what he does is so that he can rule and reign in our lives.   So that we won't be led by God.   So that we won't follow God's plan.    How hard  is it to see?   How difficult is it to comprehend.    He knows that if he can get you off track.   In a place where your concentration is on what is happening to you .... rather than what God has done for you ..... then he can cause you to derail.  The word derail means to cause something to fail or become deflected from its purpose.   It means to reduce or delay the chances of its success or development.    That's what the enemy wants to do to you.   He wants to reduce your chance of success in God.    That is the whole purpose of the distractions in your life. 

A derailment is never intentional.   There is always a cause behind a derailment.    Either there is something on the tracks.   There may be something broken or misaligned on the tracks.   Maybe the train is going at an excessive speed or there is something faulty in the wheels or maybe there are obstructions on the tracks.   Either way .... a derailment doesn't just happen.   That is why we need to check our lives.   We need to check for obstructions.   We need to check our thoughts to make sure they are aligned properly with God's word.    We need to check our speed and make sure we are going in the right direction.    

God wants to use us.   The devil wants to distract us.    Now it is up to us to choose how we will be aligned.    Will you align yourself with God's word or your worries?   The choice is yours.   Understand that whatever you align yourself with is what you are coming into agreement with.
