Here is that video again: Easily Pleased
Holy Spirit has just really been at work and this video hit me just right, augmenting the work that He was/is doing. I am realizing more and more that the battle against my flesh is not a battle of avoidance or abstinence or denial of good or desirable things. Rather the battle is more simply won in the realization that all that the enemy has in his possession to tempt me is a bunch of worthless dung. He shines it up or puts a new coat of paint on it to make it look appealing, but it is still dung underneath. The important thing is to walk full of Holy Spirit so that He (God in you) can help you see through the deceptive facades. When one is empowered to see through the deception of the enemy, the choice is much clearer: Choose God and righteousness, at Whose right hand are pleasures FOREVER MORE! The enemy has got nothing on that. He only comes to steal, and kill, and destroy. May we always see through his deceptions and "Let love be genuine, hating what is evil and clinging to what is good..." (Romans 12). God is good and may we find our delight in Him and nothing less.
