Proverbs 6:6 tells us to watch the ant and be wise. Well, I think there are many lessons to be learned from the ant. I guess it’s just that season when ant beds pop up everywhere. I saw an ant bed in my yard the other day, so I put ant poison on it, and no sooner had the ants evacuated this ant bed, another one popped up, the very next day. I applied more poison and the same thing happened again and again and again. I guess I need a different type of ant poison.
But the real point of this thought is that sin can be the same way. If we don’t deal with the root cause of the problem, there will always be fruit from the root. Don’t let sin of any kind remain in your life. If you do, it will manifest itself in your life in one way or another. Get rid of sin and give no place for the enemy to get in your life.
Ephesians 4:27 says, “Do not give the devil a foothold.” One version says, “Give no place to the devil.”
Don’t rent the devil space in your mind. Don’t allow him to control your thoughts, your words or your actions. Determine today, that you will make your life better, by living free from any type of sin or stronghold that may hinder your walk with Christ. The word of the day is No Place. Give the devil No Place in your life.
