  1. Prey

    “Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour” (1 Peter 5:8).

    Have you ever watched a lion hunt? He silently stalks, keeping his eyes on his prey, pacing and waiting until the perfect moment to POUNCE! His prey are typically unsuspecting, distracted and unaware that they are about to be killed. And this is the exact picture the Bible paints of the devil.

    We’re in the middle of a battle, facing three distinct enemies: the world, the flesh, and the devil. The world is our enemy because it constantly communicates that personal glory and fulfillment can be attained apart from the eternal Christ, in temporal things such as fame, sexual immorality, money, and power.

    Surrounded by Bill Young

    “For surely, O Lord, You bless the righteous; You surround them with Your favor as with a shield” (Psalm 5:12).

    It’s been a couple months since we completed our Roots 2.0 capital campaign, and things related to our building are moving right along. God’s favor has been with us like a strong shield. His blessing is evident.

    It appears that we’ll be in our current Sandy location at least until September. Our landlord has told us we can stay until their new building on the corner is completed. What new building? Exactly. They haven’t even broken ground yet, so it could be even longer before we have to move out. Thank you, Lord!

    “Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul, and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with the church and taught a great many people. And in Antioch the disciples were first called Christians” (Acts 11:25-26).

    Antioch was the site of the first Gentile (non-Jewish) church. When reports of this church made it back to Jerusalem, the leaders sent Barnabas to investigate. Barnabas was definitely the right man for the job, “for he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a great many people were added to the Lord” (Acts 11:24).
