Perhaps the most insidious weapon that Satan uses to attack Christians, is to get our eyes off of Jesus. If Satan cannot deceive us, divide us, or discourage us, what he will often do is to divert us.

The passion we once had for Jesus, can be replaced with an acceptance of things as they are. Satan wants us to become so satisfied with where we are, with what we are doing and with what we have accomplished. Instead of maintaining a fiery passion for Christ and for His kingdom, we could lose our zeal for Christ and His kingdom. We replace an all-consuming passion with a complacency that is content with the way that things are.
