Distraction Is A Serious Enemy

Distraction is one of the enemy’s biggest tools. I talk about things like Candy Crush because if the devil cannot catch you with one thing, he uses another. You sit down pressing that small game for hours; people have testified here. The time they spend in church is less than the time they spend on games.

I’m not talking about the big video games with fighting and adrenaline. I’m talking about small ones where you’re moving pieces of candy that look like jewelry. And you wonder why you’re emotional over it. The devil uses it because he wants those hours.

When I realized this about ten years ago, I checked myself. I remembered Prison Break. I sat down to watch one evening around 7 or 8pm. When I stood up, it was 5am. Eyes open. No sleep. No temptation to sleep. And the demons of tiredness stay far because Satan says, “Don’t go near him.”

But when it’s time to pray, one hour feels like torture. You can’t survive. But for Prison Break, you’re wide awake.

This is how I concluded it: these things are not good for your life. They lock you up, tie you down, drag your life away while you think you’re free. That was when I understood the concept of binging.

This is why I said the enemy brings distraction in a million forms. And the problem is when you don’t see anything wrong in it. When you say, “It’s okay.” That blindness is the real danger.
