PRACTICAL CHRISTIANITY - MEDITATE DAY AND NIGHT

OVERCOMING DISTRACTIONS.
On October 20th 2025, I wrote about distractions disguise as human problems. Basically, that we focus more on the problem than on the God that has the solution to all our man-made, self-inflicted problems. (All human problems are rooted in disobedience to God’s instructions) Life problems are real. The solution is to return to God through Jesus Christ. The question you should ask yourself is; Why do I have the problem/s? Many of us will say the enemy planted it. Who is the enemy? Satan is. Who opened the door for Satan to come in? You. Why? Because you disobey God and “because of your stubbornness and your unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath against yourself for the day of God’s wrath, when his righteous judgment will be revealed.” (Rom. 2:5 NIV) The life challenges we face daily are in itself distractions from God – like Martha who was more worried about entertainment than listening to Jesus Christ. Or David who did not go to the battle field but found pleasure with Bathsheba. Or Solomon who loved many foreign women and got distracted from the love of God.
Do you want to know how deeply distracted you are?
Become very observant about you and your behavior throughout the day. You want to make a call and as you pick your phone, you see a notification. If you attended to the notification first or the message, you are distracted. If you are attending to someone and another person interrupts, and you shift your attention immediately, you are distracted. You may not regain the intensity of your discussion with the first person again. Observe what distracts you while driving and the effects. You will soon discover how much of you and your time is swallowed in distraction – things unworthy of your attention or immediate attention. You can take this further to your prayer or Bible study time. Sleep can become a distraction under the disguise that you are tired. BE ALERT! The enemy comes to steal, kill and to destroy (John 10:10)
Be focused and remain focused.
■Prayerfully prioritize your activities for the day.
■Guard your heart with the word of God.
■By prayer, wrestle and He will perform – wrestle with bars, brothel, gossip, dirty talks, living for other people’s approval.
■Look up to Jesus the Author and Finisher of your faith.
What you call enjoyment today, is probably destruction in disguise.
THE WORD: "Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;"
(Psa.1.1.NKJV)
