One of Satan’s biggest targets in our life is through our mind. If you are not paying attention, he is the fox that spoils the vineyard. He is a master in manipulation, lies, and confusion. In turn, it separates us from God. He is the one that provokes you asking, “Where is your God?” But we serve a God who warns us of our enemy (Satan). John 10:10 says, “the thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I come that they may have life and have it abundantly.”
God’s desire for us is life and not death.
The fruit of Satan is: Fear, anxiety, depression, panic attacks, suicide, feeling unworthy, rejection, lies, cheating, murder, addiction, selfishness, greediness, lust, gossip, rage, un-forgiveness, disunity, bitterness, coveting, and rejecting God.
The fruit of Jesus is: Peace, joy, love, forgiveness, kindness, hope, selfless, generosity, holiness, purity, gentleness, and the desire to please God.
So how can you break free from Satan’s lies?
1) Humble yourself before God.
2) Cast all your cares unto God.
3) Resist Satan.
4) Stand firm in your Faith.
1 Peter 5:8-9
Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world.
Believing lies begins and ends with us not believing God. We are not victims.
