This Is When The Devil Finds You At Your Weakest

Posted on by thechristiantechnerd

Have you ever wondered why resisting a late-night snack is difficult?

During the day, most people can stick to eating healthy.

But when the night comes, a lot of people feel the need to treat themselves to some “guilty pleasure.”

There is a very good reason why this happens.

And it’s the fact that as the day progresses, our willpower drops.

The Devil knows this.

And he does everything in his power to lure us away from God’s path.

He has many ways to do that.

He can give us sinful thoughts

Urge us to neglect our spiritual practices

Or push us toward unhealthy habits.

But we are not powerless against him.

We have God on our side.

Ephesians 6:11 says “Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.”

This includes the helmet of salvation, the breastplate of righteousness, the shield of faith, the belt of truth, the shoes of peace, and the sword of the Spirit.

It is not enough to simply put on the armor, we must also be ready to use it.

We need to be aware that the Devil is always seeking to exploit our weaknesses.

And one of these weaknesses is our declining willpower as the day progresses.

When we are tired or stressed, it becomes easier to give in to temptation. 

This is why it is essential to remain vigilant throughout the day, especially in the evening when we are most vulnerable.

As Christians, we have the power of prayer to strengthen us. 

We should make it a habit to pray for God’s protection and strength every day.

Even when we feel well.

We should also seek to build up our willpower by developing healthy habits that can aid us in resisting temptation. 

These habits might include regular exercise, getting enough rest, and avoiding situations that may trigger temptation.

Remember, we are not alone in this.

This is what Scripture says about willpower.

We can support each other and resist temptation.

Let us remain steadfast in our faith and the Devil will flee from us.

  1. Someone I wish for a helper, like the one God made for Adam, then I remember the snack Adam’s helper offer to him. Sometime I wish for a helper to help me put on my full armor of God, but I know without a personal relationship with God, I may make helper my idol above God. I have guilty pleasure and I think of words like Paul; I know the things I should not do, but I do them anyway. Therefore I am wretch man, for who can help me from this body of sin that wants guilty pleasure. Then I remember other writings of Paul that said, “He that began a good work in me, will keep completing it, until the day of His return.

  6. It may be that as the day lingers on, we tire as the darkness of night approaches. The prince of darkness knows this and I’m not talking about a vampire. Prayer is the best snack to have as the sun sets and the darkness of night begins. Don’t forget to ask our Father in heaven for another sunrise. LOLGB+
