Walk in Truth
It’s important in the world we live in to remember that “The devil is a liar and the father of all lies.” Did you know that the enemy will always defeat you in your mind first before he defeats you in any other area? Do you remember Mohammed Ali, the famous boxer? Well, Ali believed in psyching them out before knocking them out! When facing George Foreman, he said, “ Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee. His hands can’t hit what his eyes can’t see. Now you see me, now you don’t. George thinks he will, but I know he won’t.” That had a way of messing with his opponent’s mind. That’s exactly the way the devil works in our lives. He psychs us out by hitting on the one thing that we’re already afraid might happen. Caution: Don’t believe the devil on any level. Especially stay away from the “never” lies. We’ve all heard them because they run through our minds on a daily basis. They sound something like this: You’ll never have a better job, never have enough money, never have a “happy ending” or you’ll never fall in love, never save your marriage or never be what God called you to be. He uses a million negative thoughts but they all end with you feeling like you’ll never amount to anything! Listen to me on this one! The devil is a liar….HOLD THAT THOUGHT. Refuse to listen and refuse to be defeated! In I John 4:4 the Word of God says “Ye are of God little children and have overcome because greater is He that’s in you than he that’s in the world.”
