Joshua - VS the DeceiverSample
The deceiver’s language is lies. His currency is counterfeit. He is always looking for a sucker who will trade the spiritual riches of God for his physical rubbish.
Satan wants us to trade:
- The Bread of Life for moldy crumbles
- New wineskins for old and cracked counterfeits
- Robes of righteousness for worn-out rags
- A seat at the table for 30 pieces of silver
- Our birthright for a bowl of soup
- Freedom in Christ for slavery to sin
And when we do, we allow the deceiver to infiltrate our lives and squat where he does not belong.
Challenge:
- Memorize Psalm 23:5
- What is the worst trade you have ever made?
