It can ruin our entire existence. My husband and I try and take extra precautions when it comes to our finances. We do not put our banking information on the Internet for ANY reason. We pay with cash rather than cards 99% of the time. It's so scary. Just the other day, I heard of fast food employees imprinting credit card numbers and using them after the customer leaves.
Terrible, huh?!
Satan does the same kind of thing. He creeps around just waiting for that person he can sweep into his nasty grip. He doesn't need an imprint of our credit card to make our lives miserable. Here is a list of tools that Satan uses to abduct our priorities:
- Television
- Computers
- Shopping malls
- Pornography
- Food
- Movies
- M.O.N.E.Y
And the list goes on and on and....
As Christians, if we are not careful, we can lose sight of our purpose here on Earth. How incredibly easy it is to become so entangled with the world that we forget Who we were created to identify with. Every now and then I have to do a priority check in my own life. I would like to encourage you to do the same.
"For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will..." Ephesians 1:4-5
It may be difficult to recover financial identity once it's been compromised, but it can be done. Unfortunately, if Satan swipes our identity card, the consequences can be eternal.
