The Father of Lies

Scripture John 8:44 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.

Observation: Most of my life I believed the lies of the devil. They kept me in bondage and away from God. You can see the devil even clearer now as he uses is dominions to spread lies throughout the world. He must be coming to his end since he is trying so hard to deceive so many with his lies. If we don’t stay focused on God and His word, we can easily become lost.

Application: I still get distracted by the lies of the enemy. I can get caught up in all the evil that is happening and lose my focus on my Lord. I need to make sure I’m in the word and doing the will of my Lord and not be distracted by the lies.

Prayer My Lord I lived most of my life listening to the lies of the devil and it destroyed my life. I now have the truth living in me, help me stay focused on You and your will for my life for You are the truth and light.
