Don't Let the Beanbag Get You

Proverbs 3:7 says, "Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord, and turn away from evil." Joshua Harris uses a beanbag chair to illustrate how we often fail to "turn away from evil.

My discipler sent me this youtube video. I don't know why she did it, but I'm glad she did. How many times do we remind ourselves of the dangers of sin and why we need to turn away from it?

It's so easy for us humans to be caught up in the things of this world. Before we know it, sin can deceive us, Satan can deceive us and tell us that the sins that we do are "not so evil" and we start forgetting who God is and why we have become so distant from Him. What does it mean to you to flee from your sin? How can we flee from sin daily?

Yes; we Christians need to turn away from evil. But we also need to arm ourselves with God's Word, the sword of the Spirit, to fight evil in our lives.
