Are the little foxes spoiling your garden?

"Take us the foxes, the little foxes that spoil the vines."
Song  of Solomon 2:15

A little thorn may cause much suffering.
 A little cloud may hide the sun.
 Little foxes spoil the vines;
and little sins cause the Spirit to run.

These little sins burrow into the soul, and make it so full of that which is hateful to Christ, that He will hold no comfortable fellowship and communion with us. We are all aware that a great sin can destroy a Christian, but we often allow little sins to remain and they can make us miserable.
Jesus can not walk with a person unless they allow Him to drive out every known sin. He says, "If ye keep My commandments, ye shall abide in My love, even as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love."  He tells us that He will cleanse us from every sin, AND the things that so easily beset us.
 How can a child of God be satisfied to go on without seeing your Father's face. Where is the fellowship which bonds your spirit to Him?  If you are in the Bride of Christ, are you content without enjoying His company! .
We must let go of those sins which can separate us from our Beloved!  The things of this world can not bring joy without the presence of our Lord.  We must ask ourselves the question,"What is separating Christ from me?" Does he hide His face because of my sin? If you would live with Christ, walk with Christ and have a fellowship with Christ, then take heed to "the little foxes that spoil the vines, for our vines have tender grapes"
Our Lord has paid the price for our deliverance from sin, every sin, even the small ones which we sometimes explain away as innocent pleasures. These thoughts only come from one source, Satan.  He is a liar, deceiver, destroyer and the accuser of the Believer.  Do not allow him into your thoughts with excuses for your sins  Rebuke him, drive him out , for he is defeated in the power of our Lord. As a child of God, YOU have power over the devil, so take your life back for the Lord.  Seek His face, talk to Him, listen to His voice of compassion and love and let Him empower you to get rid of the 'little' foxes' before they spoil your garden!!
Search me, Oh God, and now my heart today!
Cleanse me from every sin, and set me free!!
