The Light Daily Devotional – Isolation from the Father
Focus: Isolation from the Father
The word for today
The greatest opportunity the devil seeks in the life of a man is isolation from God. Each time a man makes a decision that isolates him from God and His people; he prepares and presents himself for destruction!
Scriptural Reference
“A few days later this younger son packed all his belongings and took a trip to a distant land, and there he wasted all his money on wild living. (Luke 15:13 NLT)
The primary and the most critical assignment the devil wants to achieve is to ensure our isolation from God the Father. The ordeal of the prodigal son began when he accepted to go away from his father. Gehazi kept the thought of going after Naaman to get something away from Elisha and took his journey. Most of what led people into trouble were those things they kept away from their guardians (God’s word and people of God)
It is an outright deception from the pit of hell for a man to think his life will be better off, going away from his creator or isolating himself from God’s people. The devil couldn’t achieve his aim with Eve until he succeeded in taking her away from the truth. Whatever takes you away from the truth, prayer, God’s word, your consecration and the people of God tends to isolate you for slaughter. Find grace under God never to yield to the temptation of isolating yourself from God; it is very costly.
+ Are you thinking of going away from The father?
Lord! I receive the grace to abide in your will all the days of my life in Jesus’ name. Amen!
Emphasis:
The victory of the evil one over a man’s life begins with isolation from God the Father and His will for his life!
Have a remarkable Thursday!
