STOP, LOOK AND LISTEN



Dear One,
You have heard the admonition, Stop, Look and Listen. It is a powerful spiritual admonition, too.
When you are tempted to do something that will eventually bring harm to you, then you must stop, look at the consequences, and then listen to My voice from deep within you, the Voice of guidance and wisdom. Temptation comes as a thought, and then if you do not stop, look and listen, you will fall for the temptation and you will be on your way toward the end result intended by the temptation.
When a tempting thought comes to you to do something to harm another person, either in action or words, or when tempting thoughts of judgment, conflict, disgust, deception, conflict, anger, depression or fear come to your mind, please Stop, Look at the temptation as poison, and Listen to My Voice which will give you wisdom relating to the situation.
When you Stop, Look and Listen, you will consider the consequences and you will consider the results of the evil action. Then you can make the right choice, the choice of good over evil.
I came that you might have life more abundantly when I restored My guidance to you in the person of the Holy Spirit. Listen to Him and prosper in all areas of life.
Love, God
Matthew 4:3-11; John 10:10; James 1:13-26
