Now lets get started. Passage Number 1.
The first verse on the subject of Distractions is Luke chapter 21, verses 29 through 36. It says:
He told them a parable. “See the fig tree and all the trees. When they are already budding,
you see it and know by your own selves that the summer is already near.
Even so you also, when you see these things happening, know that God’s Kingdom is near.
Most certainly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all things are accomplished.
Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will by no means pass away.
“So be careful, or your hearts will be loaded down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of
this life, and that day will come on you suddenly. For it will come like a snare on all those who
dwell on the surface of all the earth. Therefore be watchful all the time, praying that you may
be counted worthy to escape all these things that will happen, and to stand before the Son of Man.”
Passage Number 2. The second verse in our study of Distractions is found in First Thessalonians
chapter 5, verses 1 through 11. It says: But concerning the times and the seasons,
brothers, you have no need that anything be written to you.
For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord comes like a thief in the night.
For when they are saying, “Peace and safety,” then sudden destruction will come on them,
like birth pains on a pregnant woman. Then they will in no way escape.
But you, brothers, aren’t in darkness, that the day should overtake you like a thief.
You are all children of light and children of the day. We don’t belong to the night,
nor to darkness, so then let’s not sleep, as the rest do, but let’s watch and be sober.
For those who sleep, sleep in the night; and those who are drunk are drunk in the night. But since we
belong to the day, let’s be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet,
the hope of salvation. For God didn’t appoint us to wrath, but to the obtaining of salvation
through our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live
together with him. Therefore exhort one another, and build each other up, even as you also do.
Passage Number 3. For our third verse, we turn in our Bible to Mark chapter 13,
verses 31 through 37. It reads: Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words
will not pass away. “But of that day or that hour no one knows—not even the angels in heaven, nor
the Son, but only the Father. Watch, keep alert, and pray; for you don’t know when the time is.
“It is like a man traveling to another country, having left his house and given authority to
his servants, and to each one his work, and also commanded the doorkeeper to keep watch.
Watch therefore, for you don’t know when the lord of the house is coming—whether
at evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or in the morning;
lest, coming suddenly, he might find you sleeping. What I tell you, I tell all: Watch!”
Passage Number 4. This is from Ephesians chapter 6, verses 10 through 18. The scripture says:
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God,
that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For our wrestling is not against flesh
and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the
darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
Therefore put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day,
and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having the utility belt of truth buckled around
your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having fitted your feet with
the preparation of the Good News of peace, above all, taking up the shield of faith, with which you
will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one. And take the helmet of salvation, and
the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; with all prayer and requests, praying at all times
in the Spirit, and being watchful to this end in all perseverance and requests for all the saints.
Passage Number 5. The fifth verse is from First Peter chapter 5,
verses 8 through 10. The Bible says: Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your
adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Withstand
him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the
same sufferings. But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus,
after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.

Passage Number 6 is from Luke chapter 10, verses 38 through 42. It says:
As they went on their way, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha
received him into her house. She had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet and heard
his word. But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she came up to him, and said, “Lord,
don’t you care that my sister left me to serve alone? Ask her therefore to help
me.” Jesus answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things,
but one thing is needed. Mary has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her.”
Passage Number 7. The seventh verse is found in Luke chapter 17,
verses 1 through 2. The Bible says: He said to the disciples, “It is
impossible that no occasions of stumbling should come, but woe to him through whom they come!
It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown
into the sea, rather than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.
Passage Number 8. The eighth verse on the subject of Distractions is from Proverbs chapter 4,
verses 20 through 27. It reads: My son, attend to my words. Turn
your ear to my sayings. Let them not depart from your eyes. Keep them in the center of your heart.
For they are life to those who find them, and health to their whole body.
Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it is the wellspring of life.
Put away from yourself a perverse mouth. Put corrupt lips far from you. Let your eyes look
straight ahead. Fix your gaze directly before you. Make the path of your feet level. Let all of
your ways be established. Don’t turn to the right hand nor to the left. Remove your foot from evil.
Passage Number 9. Our ninth verse is from Hebrews chapter 2, verses 1 through 4. The passage states:
Therefore we ought to pay greater attention to the things that were heard, lest perhaps
we drift away. For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression
and disobedience received a just penalty, how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation—which
at the first having been spoken through the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard,
God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders, by various works of power, and by gifts
of the Holy Spirit, according to his own will? Passage Number 10. Our tenth and final verse
on the subject of Distractions is from Colossians chapter 4, verse 5. It says:
Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time. This concludes our Bible
