“Behold, I am coming as a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked and they see his shame.” (Revelation 16:15)
The term watch is interpreted in the Greek as “gregoreo “meaning keeping onself awake, to be spiritually alert or being vigilant. We who are committed to the standards of God are to remain guard against temptations the devil brings against us in order to take away our focus from the Lord. When we go through difficult valleys of life not knowing what will happen next, we are to deliberatly choose to call upon Jesus instead of running away from Him. Jesus our Lord conquered the works of the devil and He is only able to lead us out from the valley. The devil seeks to devour us in trouble to take away our faith in the word of God which brings about the manifestation. We are to resist the devil by speaking the word in faith. Let us be watchful by staying strong in the Lord knowing that we have victory all the time.
