Joshua - VS the DeceiverChikamu
Satan is the deceiver. He is a belly-crawling homeless father-of-lies who infiltrates creation through deception with one goal in mind: to destroy it and place himself above the throne of God.
His well-worn method is as old as sin: to deceive and accuse until he becomes a squatter in the hearts of men. From there, he poisons man's perception of God and His Image-Bearers.
The deceiver's offerings look good on the outside but turn out to be as stale as the Gibeonite bread.
And, just like Joshua - we are fooled by the deceiver when we don't seek and apply the revelation of God to our hearts.
Challenge:
- Memorize Psalm 23:5
- Pray that the Holy Spirit would reveal and destroy the deceptions you believe.
