Does sin/evil/devil, whatever, un-godly forces, try to stop us and distract us from living in God's will?

Question

I feel as though there is a constant distraction out there, even if you're a non believer, you have to admit, all the distractions we face in society that try to deter us from our own path in life, and make us focus on the distractions. For example, you set out on what you believe is God's plan, and for the non believers, let's say you set out on your own plan on life of some sorts, then things go wrong, you meet the wrong people, get sick, get into a car accident, get sucked into temptations which try to ruin your life and make your path you previously considered next to impossible to complete?

If that's the case, and I myself am a believer even in these modern and quite difficult/godless times, and firmly believe that people without god (the majority) go to and fro, without spiritual guidance or knowledge, so basically its just their own willpower, and if they mow someone down, that is if they're cut-throatish, they dont care. It affects us believers though.

So what do we do?

For example, you go out in the world, as a believer, which gives you newfound hope and a light, and then u run into people ( which DOES happen) who are dark, evil, tricky, and try to basically destroy your faith, b ecause they themselves don't believe, and you get sucked into that and eventually BOOM< you become another faithless person like the rest of them, and your path in God has been destroyed.

That can happen quite easily, especially nowadays, where there is a blatant disbelief and dislike for anything of "god."

Notice all the thumbs down for all the pro-god answers? lol. that's just proof right there of how many non-believers there are even here on yahoo answers lol.

Answer 1

the devil will stoop to any lows to get us to question our belief in GOD thats him all over pure evil just say "devil you are a liar" and keep on saying it eventually he will get the message he wont give up that easy remember "devil you are a liar" and keep your FAITH STRONG

Answer 2

The thumbs down for "pro god" answers are there because all religions claim to be the perfect/only true religion, and the "pro god" answers ussually bash religions other then their own.

For example, you yourself are saying that anyone who does not believe in god is evil and serves the devil. This is not true, and it is extremely rude. Your question/rant makes all believers seem ignorant.

I believe in God by the way, im orthodox, so please try not to ruin the reputation of believers with your rants.

Answer 3

The devil will do anything he can to get our eyes off God. The last thing he wants is for us to live for God,endure to the end, go to Heaven.

Answer 4

I find my biggest distraction is me, my flesh. Not that Satan does not try.
