John 10:10-11

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and they might have it more abundantly. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

The thief comes to steal our purpose. If the devil can derail us he can stop us from getting God’s’ best. Our lives can end up defeated if the devil gets us to doubt Jesus. If we don’t recognize the source of the problem we may blame God for the source of the trouble. Remind yourself that Jesus is the good shepherd, and He came that we have life and have it more abundantly.
