Deception; a weapon of the enemy- Pastor Israel Moore
We should not be ignorant of the devices of the devil. One of the devices the devil uses to ensnare people is deception.
Deception is defined as the act of causing someone to accept as true or valid what is false or invalid. The dangerous thing about deception is that those that are deceived do not even know that they are deceived. It will take the intervention of God to reveal the form of deception one is exposed to.
“Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.”2 Cor 2:11
In the garden of Eden , the devil used the device of deception to ensnare Adam and Eve. The ultimate goal of the devil is to bring one under bondage . As long as the devil succeeds in bringing you against the will of God, he has succeeded in bringing you under bondage but he. Will not succeed in Jesus name.
How can you escape deception?
1. You need the knowledge of God.
Prov 11:9
hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered “
“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. Hosea 4:6
2,Expose the deeds of darkness
Ephesians 5:11Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and darkness; instead, expose them.
“Their malice may be concealed by deception, but their wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.” Prov 26:26
We need light to expose darkness. The light is the life of Christ.
Jesus replied, “My light will shine for you just a little longer. Walk in the light while you can, so the darkness will not overtake you. Those who walk in the darkness cannot see where they are going.
Prayers
Father thank you for all you have done in our lives in Jesus name.
We receive grace to walk in the light of your countenance in Jesus name.
We overcome by your blood every form of deception in Jesus name.
We take authority and we bind every spirit of deception in Jesus name. Amen 🙏
