Dangers still threaten us, and some of these dangers are far more devastating than a skinned knee or a broken arm. There are “accidents” in which people are killed daily. Thieves and rapists live in our land. Death in diverse ways can rob us of a friend, or a father or a mother, a brother or sister.
Even so, there are many who see no real danger, and imagine that they can enjoy the wild ride. Although they may recognize the physical and emotional danger, the real danger is spiritual; and unless God has opened ones eyes, he does not believe the danger is real. The ungodly ride the waves in a dru
Similarly, if you are not vigilant, the devil will maul you, and, but for God’s grace, the devil will destroy you. The main reason for fatalities in wildlife parks is the tourists’ lack of vigilance. Many tourists underestimate the power of the lion—the lion does not look dangerous. It looks like a

It can be a sudden shock that a loved one has been badly injured and will be hospitalized for a while, so that we are not sure if he or she will ever be the same. It can be daily living with the fear that someone is after you, whether it is real, as it was for David, or mentally, as part of an illne
O, you know the enemy. He is the devil with all his demons who are mean, vicious, cruel, and who come with many cunning tricks to destroy us. Besides, off to the side is the world, with her bright lights, her alluring appeal, and at the same time, her threat to wipe us out.
But, they are willing to endanger themselves spiritually by playing with temptation. They ignore the warnings of their family, friends and church. They pursue their sinful appetites and thrills thinking that they will be safe, that they will be strong. The storms come up and the waves of sin encompa
