We all have things that entice us. For example, my fixation is the aesthetics of my home, property, and my appearance. I don’t like anything out of place, though I get tired sometimes and leave a mess for the next day. These things only become a problem if I choose to obsess over them without giving God the credit for providing the environment I desire. Everything you have is because God gave you the fortitude and the personality to pursue it. Not only that, He is the One who gave you the desires of your heart if they are based on godly values. The point is, you wouldn’t want what you want unless God gave you that desire, so make sure you obsess over God as much as you do your fixations. Hear God’s voice and obey Him. Worship Him with all your heart. Give God the praise He deserves and desires. You’ve made requests of Him and have expectations of Him, but sometimes we put our asks before Him without giving Him what He desires most from us, and that is our worship of Him. Worship Him not only because he will fulfill your prayers, but worship Him because He is God. 

O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker. For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice, Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness: Psalms 95:6-8
