The daily fight in the Christian life is against formidable foes. The accusing devil strives to get our eyes off Jesus and onto our sins leading to a joyless life of doubt and fear. The alluring world seeks to draw our hearts to the pleasures of the world instead of pleasures of the Word leading to sins of discontent and complaining. But the most dangerous spiritual foe we face is the person we greet in the mirror each morning. It is self that leads us to the worse form of deception; self-deception and that by justifying disobedience, promoting self-righteousness, and living a half-hearted Christian life toward the things of God. Be on guard against our spiritual foes, but be especially on guard against self. He or she will do the most damage in our Christian life (Proverbs 3:5-8).
