"Our Enemy is not our Friend" 1 Samuel 29
The word "enemy" mention here is meant as "sin" or "temptation" of the world.
Always be on guard against the "Enemy". . .
Before anything else let us talk about what communion bring us:
Communion help us remember to keep away from Sin.
Communion help us in sharing faith and get ready for his return. Through communion this tells us to repent and be saved from sin...
We need to be close to our friends not in the enemy (the things of this world)... be on fellowship it will help us to be strong in our faith, the Enemy will always have temptation for us to fail in attending fellowship i.e. too busy, have more important things to do, but God said in Ten Commandments "You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, punishing children for the iniquity of parents, to the third and the fourth generation of those who reject me"
The enemy will try to pull us far from the Lord.
Don't look like the world be careful not to participate in worldly things examples are the movies, TV, songs or green jokes, always be aware what you feed in your eyes and ears, this will be internally absorb thus making you do things unconsciously thinking it was right thing to do.
We can not be friend with the world and be Friend with God.
Look like the world, talk like the world, be guard against those things read Hebrews 2:1
We must be attentive, the enemy will let you "forget about God" and let you "doubts and be hurt" not to trust in God.
The story about the Deer and Hunter... when a hunter hit a deer with his gun the deer fell down, thinking it was already dead, the hunter went close to the deer for him to take photos. As soon as the camera flash the deer quickly rose up and the hunter was hit with the horn of the deer he ended up in ICU.
the lesson of the story: always pray to be save, never put your guard down, less you will fall in Satan's trap... remember Satan was lucifer who was the Angel of God and fall from heaven.
the Spy story:
in US Army all of the soldiers have an exam questions only Americans knows in order to identify who are the spy of Germans because spy can talk and even look like the Americans but they don't know all about Americans.
in connection of the spy story we have the Bible in order to identify the spy if the person doesn't follow the Bible then keep away from them.
The enemy knows your witnesses be careful they set trap for you.
Read 1 Corinthians 10:13
Don't play with an enemy, when there's a way out RUN...
Read 2 Peter 2:9.
