Hebrews 12:2-4
Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood.
Do not get distracted by what you see with your physical eyes. If you get easily distracted by what you see with your physical eyes, you are the weakest of all men. 'Weakest' meaning your death will be just like the death of an animal. No meaning to all your time on earth Do you know that the animals were created for man and so were all the vegetation and plants? Eve was created for Adam as a helpmate in God's garden. Then came the 'destroyer' and spoiled everything for them. Eve was trapped and deceived by what she saw.She believed and accepted what the 'destroyer' offered. He spoiled her life for good. Eve, in-turn spoiled Adam's life for good. What did the LORD do? He return what the 'destroyer' did on his own head for good and that is his eternal condemnation. After that, what happened? All of them were thrown out of that Garden of Eden. They were locked out for good. Why were they locked out? The Secret of God was still there. Adam and Eve disqualified themselves from receiving that Secret of God as a result of their disobedience. The 'magic' the destroyer did before their very eyes brought about their tragic end to their eternal relationship with the LORD. Disobedience was the reason. In came the Secret of God, revealed as the Word of God. He taught us how to obey the LORD, even to the point of shedding His blood and dying for us like a lamb for the slaughter.He became the Lamb of God, the perfect sacrifice for our sins. Even the grave could not hold Him in beyond three days. The grave give Him up. He resurrected from the dead, revealed Himself to chosen men and women of God. He ascended up and now is seated at the right hand side of the Father interceding on behalf of each of us who trust in Him that we will not make the same fatal mistake of disobedience to the Father like Adam and Eve.Watch your eyes. There is that same 'magic' being played before your eyes.Do not get trapped and deceived to disobey the LORD. Keep your eyes fixed on the author and the perfecter of your faith.He showed you the way of obedience to the Father.Follow exactly that, nothing else. Do not get distracted by sinful men who oppose you like they did to Him. Do exactly what He did to them. They like sinning and the sinful path, therefore they are trying to justify the evil path that they have chosen for themselves rebelliously, even though they keep claiming they 'belong' to God. The Devil still claims that too.He claims that as God had created him, he has the right to exist on Earth. More so did he feel that this is his rightful dwelling place, when the LORD threw him and the demons that followed out of heaven to this condemned Earth. The present heaven and the Earth that has been defiled by the Devil, the author of every sin, is about to be destroyed for good. The Devil and all those who obeyed the sinful nature of the Devil in them will also be destroyed forever and ever. That day is drawing very near. Beware of the 'magic' the author of sin is performing through his demons and minions. Their intention is to make you disobey the LORD. Keep your eyes fixed on the author and perfecter of your faith for full Christformation in you.
Hebrews 12:1
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.
