Be Mindful of Who You Let In.

SCRIPTURE: “Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for ‘God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.’ 6 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, 7 casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.” 1 Peter 5:5-7
Are there areas where you are disobedient, repetitiously?  Are there areas where you are vulnerable? Your thought-life, your emotions? You know, if you are a believer! Who are the caution people that you let into your life? There are some people you ought to be cautious of. They say they are Christians, but I say, “So what!”  You want to marry them because they say they are a Christian, but I say, “So what!” They belong to my church, and I say, “So what!”? The same command that goes to you, goes to them-be sober and be vigilant because your adversary the devil walks about as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

PRAYER: 
Dear Jesus, You are the lifter of our Heads and You are the filter through which our spiritual lives are screened. As we humble ourselves before You, Jesus, help us to take stock of the quality of our walk and those we have allowed in our walk. Help us to pinpoint those 'red flag' areas in our lives as we examine ourselves to confirm whether we are in the faith. May we test ourselves to confirm that Jesus Christ is truly in us! The last thing we want dear Jesus, is to be disqualified! We ask  all of these things in Your matchless name, Amen!
