Watch and pray

   When the Lord Jesus warned  his disciples that they should watch, it was because, better than anyone, he clearly knew that if they did not watch and if the Lord Jesus didn't  keep a surveillance on the disciples, they would inevitably fall into temptations, it means, they would enter a field that is dominated by the forces of hell, that this would only lead to the  destruction of their lives. How does a person enter into temptation? 

This happens through what the person sees, hears, thinks or feels.         

The devil knows very well how to use these senses to deceive the human being, the more intelligent, mature and spiritual the person is, if there is not a constant surveillance on one’ self, ( watching one's self) sooner or later this person will fall. 

First the devil awakes the desire for something that draws the attention of the person and at the same time it can be something the person is curious to see, hear or touch it, because the human being is very curious by nature and want to know everything.                       
Many misleadingly find themselves reliant and self-confident and therefore, believe that nothing bad will happen to them it does not matter if It's a video on the Internet, if it's a picture that at first does not seem too outrageous, hence comes the desire to see more and often times. When this happens, the person has already entered the field of temptation. The tendency now is the desire to go deeper and it only increases and when the person wants to return because they are too far away they rarely get out of this temptation field, as is already under the dominion of evil forces.   

The only way to avoid entering these temptations is to do exactly as the Lord Jesus guides us. Watch and pray. 

When we watch we are using intelligent faith, the reasoning, the own domain and when we pray we are putting our faith into action, When we obey this determination of the Lord Jesus, there is no way to enter into temptation, although the flesh is weak, but the spirit is strong and being strong, you have authority over any kind of temptation.     

Many servants including pastors, assistants and even bishops have fallen because they despised the good conscience that is fueled by the fear of God. 

When we despise fear, we despise salvation. If the person has a problem, he or she should ask for help, instead of trying to solve the problem by themselves.                                                    All those who have fallen considered themselves self-sufficient and thought they   could solve their difficulties alone.     

Remember to "Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak." Matthew 26.41
