What are your Risk Factors?
Ephesians 6:13 "Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that WHEN (not if) TEMPTATION and evil comes, you WILL be able to STAND your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand."
So how do I define my Risk Factors?
SUDDENLY I KNOW MY RISK FACTORS!
For an alcoholic one Risk Factor is going to a bar.
For a Depressed person one Risk factor is sleeping to much and mulling over past mistakes.
For a Drug Addict one Risk Factor is access to Pills and Cell Phones.
A Pastor should never ever council a person of the opposite sex especially behind closed doors.
SUDDENLY I KNOW MY RISK FACTORS!
"Oh I'm fine! I will be ok! I'm Strong enough!"
Don't be fooled and say, "those Risk Factors don't apply to me!"
Suddenly Complacency sets in!
"Therefore, whoever thinks he is standing securely should watch out so he doesn't fall." 1 Corinthians 10:12
The Risks are to Overwhelming to take a chance: Broken Spirit, Broken Future, Broken Family, Jail, Death!
SUDDENLY I KNOW MY RISK FACTORS!
Friends, Know your Weakness and the Risk Factors associated with your Weakness.
Prepare to be Prepared!
Why do heart patients take Blood pressure medication? To avoid all the Risks of High Blood Pressure.
SUDDENLY I KNOW MY RISK FACTORS!
Put on the Full Armor Of God!
It is not if it is when we are in the wrong place at the wrong time! What do you do to avoid the Risk Factors?
SUDDENLY I KNOW MY RISK FACTORS!
"Flee Temptation and Pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart." 2 Tim 2:22
SUDDENLY I KNOW MY RISK FACTORS!
Just Go! Just Flee!
Rick
