Temptations are plentiful. Yes, even the devil's testings of your faith are plentiful.
They are present in your life to entice you to join in agreement with the kingdom of destruction which has been in existence in the earth since the beginning. determined to destroy My children a little at a time.
The ways of your enemy are subtle, sometimes beginning with a thought of something bad happening. Then he will convince you that the image in your mind will actually come to fruition. You yield to fear, becoming unified with the author of fear which will bring what you fear upon you.
Another way your enemy gets you to participate in your own destruction is to bombard your mind with judgmental thoughts about others until you yield to the temptation and concentrate on judging someone. Your thoughts may be on someone's attire, their behavior, the color of their skin, the peculiarity of their customs or their unwise choices. Because of your judgment, you become an active participant in your own destruction, which is to be judged because you have sown judgment seeds.
One of the first attitude adjustment teachings Jesus taught was, "Judge not, that you be not judged." He was trying to teach all of My children that judgment is of the devil and being in agreement with him by judging others will allow him to bring judgment upon you.
The first thought of judgment should be cast out before it becomes an attitude, then spoken in words. If the thought of judgment is not cast out, then actions follow of your talking about the person you judged, enticing others to join in the judgment. The next step in the situation is that someone will judge you or the devil will judge you by bringing some destructive event into your life.
You must be a constant watchman, being conscious of your thoughts. Some are from hell and some are from heaven. Let My Spirit judge which ones are from Me for your benefit and which ones are from hell for your destruction.
Let the thoughts remain in your mind which are pure, good, loving toward others, edifying and of a good report. Then you will not participate in your own destruction and you wil be known as My children because you are led by My Spirit.
Love, God
