ORANGE CONES - PART 1

You see these orange cones out on the roads, sidewalks, driveways, used at construction sites, etc... These cones can serve numerous purposes depending on the perspective you have.  I'd like to highlight 2 ways based on what God put on my heart as a correlation to my character and life.

Imagine having to do some work in a space that you dont want anyone or anything entering so it doesnt compromise the integrity or quality of the work site and eventual result.  You can use these cones to create a quasi-fence.  This step can signal to the surroundings that there is someone or something here worth protecting. 

In our lives, we have to sometimes put "cones" up to protect the integrity of our individual and family lives.  The enemy will always try to encroach into areas of our life that will compromise our quality - the product that God wants us to be.  Our personal life and our families are worth fighting for and protecting from the attacks of the enemy.  The enemy is not real life people but the powers of darkness and Satan.  We have to put these "cones" up to signal to the world and Satan that you are going to take necessary steps to protect your "work site".

Few "Cones":
1. Prayer time - individually, family, and with fellowship of believers
2. Reading time - with your Bible
3. "Check Me" friends - accountability partners
4. Worship experience - go to church
5. Committment - to Jesus Christ ... loving Him, learning about Him, living for Him
6. many more to come ...

Enjoy the Ride,
