Keep the Devil Out

Zephaniah | Chapter 3:18-20 Pt. III ~ Episode 992:

As in the days of Job, the Lord is saying a similar thing here; that He's put a hedge of protection around them, so that nothing can come in and by any means harm them. One would think that they would never forget the Lord. All of those periods of captivity happened because they continued in sin and iniquity. And, this principle is also for believers today. We are to occupy until the Lord returns; and that requires us remaining submitted with the Lord's ways and thoughts,  being led by Him in what to say and speak, and not giving the adversary a foothold.
