Gates to the soul
So, from last week we identified two main gates to our soul (Eyes and Ears) through which we are continually fed with information that is either good or bad for our consumption. In my opinion, we should accept the fact that what we see and what we choose to listen to is beyond our control hence the best trick played on us yet is our lack of control of these two gates.
From childhood, colourful things have been used to get our attention. As we grow older, we are continually controlled by what we see which has an adverse effect on other members of our bodies like our hearing, touch etc. Ever wondered why advertising is in existence? Yes you may say it was made for us to strengthen our decisions in purchasing a product or service but does it stop there? NO!! It also forms our way of life, it makes our choices by giving us options and eliminating other options that may have not been advertised in an enticing manner as others may have done.
This same method is used to entice us into what will make us less of who our creator made us to be. Thank God for choice once again but once this media from the headquarters of hell captures the sight, then that gift of choice is already thwarted before we make it, leaving us with no choice.
Hence:
|
Psalm 101 verses 3 says I will set before my eyes no vile thing. The deeds of faithless men I hate; they will not cling to me. Morally bad or wrong; “evil purposes”; “an evil influence”; “evil deeds” indecent and common in nature (NIV). |
The thing is when the battle of control over your sight is lost to the enemy, you continually make dedicative choices according to what you have lived by or known for years and these behaviours, good or bad, that result from the choices eventually become you.
|
Jesus said in Matthew 6:22-23 “The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are good, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eyes are bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness! |
Created as the light of the world is a mega plus for us however when the darkness of this world via entertainment, media and other things we should not be allowing into our soul gets through, what then happens to the whole body? I’ll tell you what happens; Decisions are made in error and choices miss targets by huge margins, all due to the fact that the source of the choices were wrong in the first place hence the bible once again says if the foundation is faulty, what can the righteous do? (See Last weeks).
