FAITH CAPSULE: The spirit of distraction is not of God.

Jonah 1

Distraction will not warn the victim of devices.
A victim of distraction does not arrive at the expected destination.
Distraction does not send a warning when it sets to visit the victim.
Answering titles, religion, or ages will not be exempted from the spirit of distraction from visiting to delay or deny one.
Distraction attempted Jesus to deny Him in His journey of life.
When Jesus came out of fasting forty days and forty nights, He was hungry when the tempter came to Him, saying, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.” Jesus responded, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.” (Matthew 4:4)
Jesus avoided distraction, not looking away from the expectation of His purpose, waiting for fasting for forty days and forty nights.
Repeatedly, the spirit of distraction tempted Jesus to gain entrance, but it failed.
With the word of God, Jesus overcame the spirit of distraction.
Distraction did not exempt Jesus from its visitation.
Identify the distraction that is set in your life journey, not to become a victim failing not to arrive at the promise of God.
The children of Israel fell for distraction and did not arrive at the promise of God.
When the word of God sounds with a promise, seeing in the word of God will be received, distraction will fail.
The Israelites did not see the promise of God in His word that promised the Promised Land.
Distraction derailed the Israelites, and they did not arrive at the promise of God.
Distraction is bound to blur the vision of one not to see clearly in the spoken word of direction.
The word of God that is direction came for Jonah, “Now the word of the Lord came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying, 2 “Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry out against it; for their wickedness has come up before Me.” But Jonah arose to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the Lord.” (Jonah 1:1-3)
God spoke to Jonah, but he was moved by his feelings, going against God.
Jonah was angry, not wanting salvation for the wicked of Nineveh, and became distracted, seeking judgment of God because he failed to see the salvation of God for the people of Nineveh. (Jonah 4)
Distraction is a silent destroyer of disobedience.
Whatever one withholds against the direction of God is evidence of distraction, to become disobedience to God.
With direction, God called out Jonah and his family out of destruction to deliverance.
God directed Lot and his wife not to look back on the trail of deliverance, but the wife of Lot looked back.
The wife of Lot could not focus but looked back.
Looking back instead of looking forward is evidence of distraction.
Distraction will not inform its victim to derail.

Prayer for today: Pray not to become a victim of distraction.
