Message
Experts in child training hold that fall prevention is about adjusting children’s environments so they’re safe as they grow. Fall prevention is a critical topic as one journeys through life. It is equally important for your successful Christian journey to heaven. Temptations are on the way but God can keep you from falling.
To avoid falling, build up yourself on faith in Christ and ensure you are in the love of God. A time-tested method for avoiding a fall is to remain faithful to Jesus Christ at home, school, in the neighbourhood or when you are far from Christian faithful. The followings are also helpful tips for fall avoidance: (1) Read your Bible and pray every day (2) Meditate on God’s Word daily and not on your weaknesses or failures. (3) Recall God’s past acts to bolster your faith. (4) Be patient and hold on to God’s promises. (5) Maintain regular fellowship with God’s people and avoid sources of temptations. (6) Use every opportunity to wisely preach the gospel of peace. Beloved, if you do these things you will never fall.
