[S] 2 Corinthians 11:3 --
3But I am afraid that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, your minds will be led astray from the simplicity and purity of devotion to Christ.
[O] The key operatives here for me were: craftiness, simplicity and purity.The serpent's deception was to complicate the simple relationship to God and out of this confusion Eve fell for the trap. Another concept of simplicity is purity because by definition, purity means absence of impurity. It stays simple with just the pure elements. Based on this concept, sticking to simplicity of my devotion to Christ is one sure way of not falling to the traps of the enemy. Definitely K.I.S.S. (keep it simple & straightforward) applies here.
[A] Whenever I feel confused about the love of God for me, a red flag should go up inside me to make it simple once again. God who didn't have to do anything, abandoned Himself in order for me to live with Him eternally.
[P] Dear Father, Your simple grace and love is just too powerful! I want to keep it simple and powerful in my life so please protect me from the spell of confusion coming from the enemy. May my life and mind stay pure and simple to devote my life for You. In Jesus' name. Amen.
