Verse: Genesis 3:4-5 “Then the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” Deception is used by the enemy to tempt and confuse us. The inhabitants of Eden did not know what sin is. They lived in peace with God, but the enemy twisted the truth to make the lie feel truthful. Disobedience caused by deception. Lies, deceptions and falsehood infiltrate our lives and minds on a daily basis. Therefore it is repeated numerous times in the Bible to renew your mind to Christ-like thinking. While on earth, we will never be immune to deceptions, but we can choose to triumph over them by living close to God. Reading His Word and obeying Him. Obedience triumphs over deception. Truth triumphs over lies. |
Prayer: Almighty Father. Forgive me for not being obedient to your Word. Guide me to see the deceptions and lies in my life which is keeping me from your loving presence. Thank you for sending Your only Son, Jesus Christ the Messiah, to triumph over the enemy with Devine Truth. Amen.
