The Cultivation of Watchfulness
"Be sure to lay in provision in store against the approaching of any temptation. This also belongs to our watchfulness over our hearts…. Gospel provisions will do this work; that is, keep the heart full of a sense of the love of God in Christ. This is the greatest preservative against the power of temptation in the world. —John Owen, Of Temptation: The Nature and Power of It; the Danger of Entering Into It; and the Means of Preventing that Danger."
