When we purpose in our heart not to feast at the enemy's table and we refuse to refashion God by our unbelief and disobedience God will give us a supernatural discernment to recognize and resist every defiling temptation of the enemy. The same God who reveals the source of this defilement will give us the power to move away from it. When we refuse this defilement by faith we will be empowered to influence others with the same truth. God wants to raise up a Daniel company and impart us with this excellent Spirit that refuses to be defiled by Satan.

There is a deep abiding inner peace that only comes from Jesus. This peace is deep within those who know and understand Christ and trust that God has everything under control. When God's word is entwined in our heart and mind we will be led down a pathway of peace. This peace is the mark of the work of God. However, when we begin to leave the single pursuit of glorifying God and begin to find pleasure in this world your heart will turn from truth. You will find yourself being led away from the will of God, led away by a lust to satisfy self, and you will lose the desire to be a servant.

We are called to love the Lord with all of our heart, mind, soul, and strength. The out flow of that will be expressed in our love for others. The question is what if we don't like ourselves? How do we love people if we don't like ourselves.The ultimate goal of satan is to get us to loathe ourselves, knowing full well that if we hate ourselves we will never be able to love one another.What God inteneded for us is to kow who we are in Him and how much we are loved by Him so we can reach out to a fallen society with the same love that He showers upon us.

Satan is the master complainer and his desire is to plant a seed of discontentment in our heart. When we are not satisfied with where God has placed us in the body we will buy into the lie of the devil and begin to complain against God. There is a reward for those who choose to go God's way and learn to be content in whatever state we find ourselves in.

Where there is no progressive revelation of Christ people become reckless. There is a systematic working of lawlessness that attempts to take God out of the culture. It is the Holy Spirit that restrains us. When people refuse to come to the true knowledge of Jesus Christ we end up casting off all kinds of restaint; hence lawlssness begins to pervade in our society.
