Are we making it too easy?

It seems the more the Spirit moves in a church, the more the people in the congregation get sick. Spiritual warfare? Possibly. If it is, I can’t help but think we are making it easy for the devil. We aren’t taking care of ourselves. We don’t treat our bodies like they belong to God. We still indulge our desires to comfort ourselves with food or inactivity. As we suffer from physical pain, are we not making it easier for the devil to drag us down? Are we causing God to go to plan B because our body is out of commission?

We have an obligation to take care of ourselves. The body has to be able when the Spirit is willing. Find a support system. Have someone hold you accountable. And most of all, pray.
