“Behold, you are trusting in deceptive and useless words that bring no benefit. Jeremiah 7:8
There is an old children’s saying… “Liar Liar pants on fire”.
This little adage lives on today as many have pants on fire. Here are some questions to ponder as you read this message.
Are you partnering with the lies of the enemy?
What are you watching and taking into your minds? Likewise, what are you listening to?
Are you aware of the forces of darkness / satans tricks? For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Ephesians 6:12
Yes, the world will do what the world does, because the world doesn’t know Jesus as their savior. The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever. 1 John 2:17
Did you know that Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe? They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don’t understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God. 2 Corinthians 4:4
What is going on?
There are many people in life-changing positions of power. They control what we see and hear. Yes, they are in every level of our world system. For many years, they have flipped the script! They only speak lies.…..
Lying is their truth, their reality. Satan has infiltrated their minds and uses their mouths to speak lies from the father of lies (satan). Yes, satan is the father of lies.
What in the world is she talking about? Well, let me tell you! I’m talking about those individuals who have intentionally or unintentionally let the devil take control of their life. They could have done it for a variety of reasons, but most the time it’s for power, fame and greed.
This is happening now especially in Government, Media, Education and Religion. Don’t get me wrong this has been happening for decades! But in these times, there is an advancement taking place like no other time in history for OUR CHILDREN- OUR GENERATION!
Let us take a little time and check out some scriptures to help us all understand the season we are experiencing.
Exhibit A– People have partnered with satan. Therefore, the enemy controls them for his use and remains inside them to destroy from within, unless the devil is cast out of that person. The devil doesn’t care who he destroys just so long as it’s mankind.
“You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.” John 8:44 NKJV
An evildoer gives heed to false lips; A liar listens eagerly to aspiteful tongue. Proverbs 17:4
Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. Colossians 2:8
Exhibit B-Evil can conquer you.
“Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good.” Romans 12:21 NLT
Exhibit C-Self-explanatory – The thief (satan) comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I (Jesus) came so that they would have life, and have it abundantly. John 10:10
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6:12 KJV
Exhibit D-Sowing and reaping scriptures (you will reap destruction by sowing evil).
“Then they will be condemned for enjoying evil rather than believing the truth.” 2 Thessalonians 2:12 NLT
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. Galatians 6:7-8
Exhibit E-Jesus says-
“A good person produces good things from the treasury of a good heart, and an evil person produces evil things from the treasury of an evil heart. What you say flows from what is in your heart.” Luke 6:45 NLT
Exhibit F– I suggest reading all of Romans 1.
“And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.”Romans 1:28-32 KJV
But the [Holy] Spirit explicitly and unmistakably declares that in later times some will turn away from the faith, paying attention instead to deceitful and seductive spirits and doctrines of demons, [misled] by the hypocrisy of liars whose consciences are seared as with a branding iron [leaving them incapable of ethical functioning] 1 Timothy 4:2 AMP
Now I urge you, brethren, note those who cause divisions and offenses, contrary to the doctrine which you learned, and avoid them. 18 For those who are such do not serve our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly, and by smooth words and flattering speech deceive the hearts of the simple. Romans 16:17-18
(The truth) – if you believe a lie long enough- it can/will become your reality.
Use caution in what you are taking into your minds.
“And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:”“that they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” 2 Thessalonians 2:11-12 KJV
For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 2 Corinthians 10:3-5
“People may be right in their own eyes, but the Lord examines their heart. The Lord is more pleased when we do what is right and just than when we offer him sacrifices. Haughty eyes, a proud heart, and evil actions are all sin. Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity, but hasty shortcuts lead to poverty. Wealth created by a lying tongue is a vanishing mist and a deadly trap. The violence of the wicked sweeps them away, because they refuse to do what is just. The guilty walk a crooked path; the innocent travel a straight road.” Proverbs 21:2-8 NLT
I suggest reading all of Proverbs 21.
These are the times to examine your heart before God!
Repent, Read the Word of God, Seek God, and Pray in the Spirit!
If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. James 1:5
Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. Galatians 5:1
RECAP- SATAN WANTS YOU CHAINED, IN BONDAGE TO HIM. He wants to use you for his evil purposes. You have free-will from God to choose life or death. You can choose your own way, your own truth, and your own life. But know this -there is only one way to eternal life and it is through Christ Jesus.
Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me. John 14:6
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16
Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:12
Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. James 4:7
I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live. Deuteronomy 30:19
Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will. 2 Timothy 22-26
Abstain from all appearance of evil. And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it. 1 Thessalonians 5:22-24
My son, do not forget my teaching, but keep my commands in your heart, for they will prolong your life many years and bring you peace and prosperity. Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:1-6
If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9
