By David Roper, Pastor, and regular and popular writer for Our Daily Bread.
Our son Randy, whose business is to know such things, told me about the OODA Loop the other day.
The OODA Loop comes from Colonel John Boyd and his concept of decision making in battlefield conditions. OODA is an acronym for Observe, Orient, Decide, and Act. In its simplest form it describes the process by which combatants react to an enemy threat: (1) they observe the threat as it occurs; (2) they orient themselves to the threat; (3) they decide what action they will take, and (4) they act. All of which takes a certain amount of time.
Boyd's theory claims that the key to success in an encounter is to shorten a combatant's reaction time by formulating a strategy ahead of time for dealing with specific threats. In other words, one thinks through the Loop before an encounter.
Success, therefore, depends on mental preparation: anticipating every strategy an opponent might use and deciding in advance what one's response will be so that when an attack occurs the appropriate action becomes instinctual and automatic.
This theory has an elegant simplicity that lends itself to many applications, not the least of which is our ongoing conflict with evil - within and without. It offers what the wise person needs, according to Proverbs: guidance for waging war and wise counsel for victory. (Proverbs 24:5-6)
It seems to me that Peter had something like Boyd's promise in mind when he enjoined us to "be self-controlled [think it through] and alert [in readiness], [for] your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour." (1 Peter 5:8) In other words, we must be mentally prepared and know what to do when under attack.
This readiness is what early Christians called solertia, a Latin word that means a process of deliberation by which an individual envisions an impending circumstance and prepares for it by deciding beforehand what she or he will do. Thus, when the crisis arrives the person is not driven by emotion and passion, but by calm. reasoned resolution. This is providentia (another word the early Christians used) or "seeing before" - envisioning what needs to be done before one has to do it and giving thought to what has to be done and how to do it.
Solertia means, among other things, taking time each morning to think through the day and anticipate difficult and dangerous situations so that our response to spiritual threats is immediate and instinctual. (Do I have a meeting with someone "unfriendly" today? What do I think he or she will say? How can I respond in truth and love? Am I facing sexual temptation for which I must be forearmed? What steps must I take to guard my thoughts and actions? Do I anticipate a challenge in my business in which I'll be tempted to bargain away my integrity? What will I do if I am told to lie and my job is on the line?) Having deliberated in advance, I can respond to moral crisis with calm convictions, for the decision has already been made.
It's not mere forethought that saves us, however, Jesus instructs us to "watch and pray" lest we fall into temptation, for we may be willing and resolute, but the flesh (our unaided humanity) is weak (Mark 14:38) It's not by decision and determination alone, but by prayer - utter dependence on God - that we prevail.
prayers are done, sit yourself down a little while,
and consider what you are to do that day, what
matter of business is like to employ you, or to
tempt you; and take particular resolution against
that, whether it be matter of wrangling, or anger,
or covetousness, or vain courtship, or feasting:
and when you enter upon it, remember, upon
what you resolved in your closet. If you are likely
to have nothing extraordinary that day, a general
recommendation of the affairs of that day to God
in your prayers will be sufficient, but if there be
anything foreseen that is not usual, be sure to be
armed for it, by a hearty, though a short prayer,
and an earnest, prudent resolution beforehand:
and then watch when the thing comes.
Jesus said to His disciples: "Things that cause people to sin are bound to come . . . So watch yourselves." (Luke 17:1, 3)

[252] Proverbs 24:5-6
[253] 1 Peter 5:8
[254] In moral theory solertia translates into giving wise forethought to truth. Once we grasp a truth we must "imagine what we will do with it" in various circumstances.
[255] Mark 14:38
[256] Taylor, "Agenda, or, Things to Be Done," italics added.
[257] Luke 17:1, 3. The word "watch" comes from prosecho, which means "to be in a continuous state of readiness to learn of any future danger, need, or error, and to respond appropriately." See Louw and Nida, Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament.
