Bible Verse of The Day – 4-25-19

2 Corinthians 11:13-14 (NKJV) 13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light.

It’s important to know and understand that satan will try to come as an angel of light.  He will try to tempt us with things that look really, really good because he knows we like GOOD!

And most times those things will be so very close to the real deal that it is hard to tell them apart. It will be pretty, shiny and have bells and whistles to make sure it gets our attention.

We can be sure if it’s from him, it will bring nothing but destruction to us one way or another.

We have to learn to see through his temptation and his plan to bring destruction upon us.

He will use things that we may need or things that we really want, including finances, material things or even someone’s appearance.

In trying to throw us off, he will even go so low as to use ministers and spiritual leaders that have backslidden in their walk with God. In order to stop him we have to shut it down by resisting him.

James 4:7 (NKJV) 7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

It’s not always easy to figure out what he is up to because he is sneaky and he will disguise himself and his plan to get us to take his bait. But when we do see it for what it is, we can’t hesitate and we can’t play with it.

And we can’t even entertain the thought of “just checking it out”. We need to move quickly and run far away from it.

If he is using people, drop them. If he is using finances, dump it. If he is using appearances to tempt us, let them go. If he is moving through a leader, move on from there and find another place to go and learn, etc.

Cry out to God today and ask for His help in keeping our feet from falling into the trap of the enemy. Amen.

Psalm 56:13 (NKJV) 13 For You have delivered my soul from death. Have You not kept my feet from falling, That I may walk before God In the light of the living?

Be sure to let God guide us in our choices and decisions before we say “YES”. He will show us if we are on the verge of getting hooked by our enemy.
