*LUST OF THE EYE*

*Keep moving forward*

*So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate*. 
*Gen.3.6* 

What we know is that apart from being tempted with what is around us the other ways we can be tempted is about what appeals to us, what we admire and what we wished we had as against what we have already, remember that we said that the woman was around the tree and from the fact the the bible made us to understand the she "saw" means that she has been admiring the tree before.

 According to Uncle John, there are three areas that the devil concentrates on whenever he wants to tempt us and Uncle John gave us the list and they are 1 the lust of the flesh, 2 the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, so let us consider these words of Uncle John as it relates to what happened to the woman.
*For all that is in the world the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life--is not of the Father but is of the world*. *1John.2.16*.

Let us state it here before we go further that it is what appeals to us the the devil uses to tempt us for instance Eve was in the midst of many tree but he choose to hand around the only one that she was asked not to have anything to do with that is why when the devil suggested to her to eat of it, it was easy for her to say yes because she has been admiring and longing to eat of the tree.

 Another area of concentration of the devil is what we crave for, what we desire even if we know that we cannot get it but keeps craving for it for instance in our world today we see children of about age twelve seeking to own a car instead of thinking of how to go to school and at the end of the day we see what is today called "Yahoo" to the extend that we have what is called "Yahoo plus"

Finally Uncle John told us about he pride of life, the truth is that every human being is a proud person that is why you see that every human being appreciates himself or herself and believes in himself or herself , it is the pride that is not guarded that brings us downfall or puts us into problems, when you are able to tame your pride what you get is called humility.

LET US PRAY*🙏 🙏 🙏

FAMILY PT3

*FAITH NUGGETS*  *FAMILY PT3 * *For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life*.  *John.3.16*  Concerning this family that we have been discussing i want to hand us over to bro Paul to give us the final say on this matter. *WIVES* Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body. Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in *everything*. *Eph 5:22-24* *HUSBANDS* Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish. *Eph 5:25-27* *CHILDREN* Children, obey your parents in the Lor...

THE GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT PT2

*FAITH NUGGETS*  (*DAILY DEVOTIONAL*) *THE GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT PT2* *The blessings of God upon your life will be so glaring that people will see it and know that you are blessed* *But we were hoping that it was He who was going to redeem Israel. Indeed, besides all this, today is the third day since these things happened*. *Luke.24.21*. Cleopas and his friend were so disappointed in Jesus that they had to run away even in the night and more was their disappointment when some of their women came to tell them that they saw a vision of Angel that told them that he had risen. Wait a minute, how on earth can somebody that could not come down from the cross rose from the dead? Is it possible? *When they did not find His body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels who said He was alive*. *Luke.24.23*  Cleopas and his friend were with the others until this news came that he had ri...

THEIR EYES WERE INDEED OPENED

*FAITH NUGGETS*  (*DAILY DEVOTIONAL*) *THEIR EYES WERE INDEED OPENED* *Above only is your portion* *GENTLE REMINDER* tomorrow is Sunday please try to be in His presence for your present* *Then the serpent said to the woman, "You will not surely die. For God knows that on the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil*."  *Gen.3.4*. Can you imagine the serpent telling the woman that she will not surely die that God was only telling her lies that the moment she eats if the tree that she will know that God was actually telling her a lie that the only thing that will happen to her was that her eyes will be opened.  The woman actually believed the serpent against believing in God and indeed her eyes were opened. Now let us see who the liar really is, did the eyes of the woman get opened when she ate of the tree? Yes. Then why...
