So God calls us to be defensive(In the right way). He even instructs us to watch and pray in Matthew 26:41Being defensive as a believer means, although we have been sanctified and raised with Christ, we must also know that the entire world has not. Even some who claim to be followers have not. With that said we must always be on guard. We must know that WE are our biggest distraction and who we feel and how we are perceived(by ourselves and others) will be our biggest temptation .
