I Peter 5:8 “Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.”
These two verses together like this remind me of a game of tag.
Children often have a “safe place” that they can run to when playing tag. While in the safe place a player cannot be tagged.
Some children hover around safe so much that it is frustrating for the tagger. The tagger cannot get them if they are always running to “safe” whenever chased.
Ah ha, that is how I can frustrate the devil too—always run to “Safe” whenever chased. Thank You Lord, for being my safe place.
