The bible says that it’s the little foxes that spoil the vine. In our walk with God this principle applies big time. That one thing can ruin everything. You can have all the world’s goods and miss out on the most important thing. It may seem little and of no consequence in the eyes of the world but without Jesus your whole life is pointless. He is the missing ingredient.
We are told in scripture that we shouldn’t be ignorant of Satan’s devices, for ignorance gives him a foothold in our lives. “Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.” 2 Corinthians 2:11 One of his devices/ploys is to get us to keep looking within at our never ending faults, sins, pain and sickness. He somehow has a way of putting symptoms on us that capture our attention and sap our energy. Soon all we do is talk about them instead of what God says about the situation and our bad confession brings it to pass. Instead of meditating on His word day and night we end up meditating on our sickness.
