Self-Watch: I’m My Own Worst Enemy
The Devil Didn’t Even Have to Show Up This Time
📖 1 Corinthians 10:12 (KJV) –“Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.” 13There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
🧍🏽Real-World Example:
You said you were only going to “look” at the cheesecake. Next thing you know, it’s gone—and you’re blaming the fork.
Spiritually, we do the same thing. We promise to pray more, study more, live better… then binge-watch shows for 7 hours straight and wonder why we’re drifting.
Spoiler alert: Sometimes the enemy is… you.
📖 Bible Story: Samson—Strong Arms, Weak Choices
Samson had muscles and miracles, but he couldn’t stop chasing the wrong woman. God gave him strength to defeat enemies, but Samson’s downfall came from within—he didn’t listen, didn’t watch himself, and didn’t learn. He told Delilah the secret of his strength, got caught, and lost it all—not because God left him, but because he stopped guarding his own actions.
🧠 Reflection Question:
Are your own choices keeping you from what God promised?
(Sometimes the prayer you need is: “Lord, help me get out of my own way.”)

John 3:5-6 5Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7
