Satan has a very unique way of shifting our focus on things that need no attention. Things that are not relevant to building God's Kingdom. Things that 100 years from now who will care? I mean really... come on.. By not putting our armor of God on first thing in the morning we expose ourselves to Satan's darts. Darts that come fast, furious and relentlessly when we are unprotected spiritually speaking. Satan walks the earth looking to devour some poor unprotected soul.
Why is focus shifted? The number one reason.... PRIDE (go figure) and Satan knows just how to use it - after all he is the author of confusion. Pride defined by Webster - inordinate self-esteem, conceit, a reasonable or justifiable self-respect. How many times is the word SELF mentioned in this definition. SELF defined by Webster - one's own. Pride causes us to focus on ourself and to put OUR WANTS (not needs) ahead of others.
Keep your focus on God and the task given before you by God.
