Pleasant to the eye.
"So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate" (Genesis 3:6 NKJV). Today we have to be careful that the enemy does not come in and deceive us. Satan has been deceiving individuals and leaders of nations for a great period of time, and he isn't stopping at what he does best, deceiving. Satan has come to steal the joy of the world, to deceive, and to mislead many with sweet lies. So many families have been sold into eternal darkness. So many fathers, who do not know their sons or daughters, find themselves bound with no way out. If the devil can get the father tied up in addiction or just selfishness and pride, Satan gets the whole household. Eve disobeyed the command of God. She allowed what looked good, pleasant, and desirable to take control of her. The same old tricks Satan used to deceive Eve, he still uses today on men and women. The lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life have been Satan's greatest weapons of deception. Jesus warns us to be careful and to be watchful, for there are many things and people out there who deceive. Jesus also reminds us that even the elect will be deceived. Keep your heart open to Lord, keep your head up high, and be expecting Christ Jesus' return very soon. God bless you.
