What we fail to rule will rule us

1 Samuel 17:8 Goliath stood and shouted to the ranks of Israel,

“Why do you come out and line up for battle? Am I not a Philistine,

and are you not the servants of Saul? Choose a man and have

him come down to me. 9 If he is able to fight and kill me, we

will become your subjects; but if I overcome him and kill him, you

will become our subjects and serve us.” 10 Then the Philistine

said, “This day I defy the ranks of Israel! Give me a man and let

us fight each other.” 11 On hearing the Philistine’s words, Saul

and all the Israelites were dismayed and terrified. - (NIV84)

Genesis 3:1 Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the

wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman,

“Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the

garden’?” - (NIV84)
