Traps for the unwary…

When the Lord draws something to my attention then it’s time to take note.

This morning I read this post from Alan https://devotionaltreasure.wordpress.com/2026/06/09/traps-on-the-wayside/

I posted a similar message in 2022 which you can read here.

The trap of deceit

Distractions is the word that comes to mind today. I believe that distractions are subtle traps that the enemy is using against many of us in this season to take our eyes and vision from our purposes and calling in Christ Jesus.

These distractions are subtle traps and are hindering us.

Is there a distraction which is a trap in your life today.

It could seem completely legitimate but it’s really a distraction from the enemy.

I pray the Lord will open our eyes and show us where we have been trapped by distractions.

Lord Jesus I pray that you will keep us from the traps of the enemy and expose them. Help us keep our feet firmly on the narrow path of truth and faith and may we not wander or become distracted. Lead us in your righteous ways. Amen

    The hyper-promotion of artificial intelligence (AI) leads believers into traps of distraction and entanglement.

    AI steals copyrighted work, kills human creativity, and destroys reputations in multiple ways.

    Unfortunately, AI lies so convincingly that most users don’t take the time to validate responses or question the source of its output.

    I pray for God to deliver believers from the trap of AI addiction.

    Yes! This is a season of many distractions. It is what I am calling a season of sideways energy where I am being constantly grabbed and pulled to the right of the left while needing to keep moving straight ahead. Some of these pulls are very strong, but they would tear me away from what God has told me to do.
