John 8:44
Ever been lied to and just became so furious at the betrayal? Ever just wanted to say, "God, why did you let this happen"!! Well, maybe it wasn't God fathering you at the time…maybe it was someone else??
Have you ever had a wave of emotion just sweep over you that made you..oh let's say, "sea-sick"? Well, I'll bet Jonah was on that boat feeling just a bit sea-sick, don't you? I was thinking today that perhaps when we are confused…and since God is the truth and not confusing at all, that maybe God is not the problem?? Or, perhaps when we are disillusioned, that perhaps we ought not ask God why, when He had nothing to do with it!! Who, might I ask is the author of confusion? I think you know his name…it's Satan!! Therefore, when you have Dissed God and chased after one of Satan's illusions, don't be surprised if you are struck disillusioned!!
Lord, remind me to turn away from illusions and please expose them in my life. Let me get out of the boat that heads in the wrong direction and instead walk on the waters of your path that is always well lit. Amen!
You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

2 Corinthians 2:10-12
New International Version (NIV)
10 Anyone you forgive, I also forgive. And what I have forgiven—if there was anything to forgive—I have forgiven in the sight of Christ for your sake, 11 in order that Satan might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes.
Friends without the protection of the Holy Spirit, we are unaware of his schemes…Ha..Good luck!!!
Hebrews 3:12-14
New International Version (NIV)
12 See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God.13 But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness. 14 We have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original conviction firmly to the very end.
