DON’T FALL FOR DEVIL’S ILLUSION

By -

In the movie 'Black Adam', Hawkman (Aldis Hodge) realized that Teth-Adam (Dwayne Johnson) was too strong for him. He called Doctor Fate (Pierce Brosnan) to create an illusion for Teth-Adam. Teth-Adam became distracted upon seeing his past, and Hawkman was able to hit him. 

An illusion is defined as an image that is misleading to the eyes or something that deceives or misleads intellectually. 

We all have a past and strive for a better future, which necessitates focus, hard work, and confidence in the Lord. Without Him, there is no possibility of accomplishment. ‘We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps.’ (Proverb 16:9). Also Proverbs 3:5-6 says ‘Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. 

The Devil will likely come to distract us, demonstrating the world and promising things that are not his property. The only means of overcoming this is through the Word of God. Remember when he tempted our Lord Jesus Christ in the wilderness, all the answer Christ gave him was from the scripture 'it's written' (Mattheww 4:1-11). But how can you use the Word when it's not in you? The scriptures say, 'Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth' (2 Timothy 2:15). The deception of many so-called Christians has not stopped just because they are ignorant of what the Bible says. 

Study the Word of God, trust in Him, and keep focused, and don't succumb to the devil's illusion. God's guidance will lead you to your desired destination. It's important to remember that only those who are in Jesus can have power over the devil. By accepting Him into your life today, you'll receive dominion over the devil, and most importantly, eternal life. (John 3:16).

THE END MAY COME SUDDENLY

  Bodija, Ibadan, Oyo state, Nigeria experienced a sudden explosion that caused some people to lose their lives unprepared. According to the Scripture, Christ will come back without any prior notice, just like a thief in the night. You might be pondering that it's been a long time since people talked about His second coming, but He hasn't made an appearance yet. In the event of your sudden death, do you have a chance of eternity in heaven? Can you boast that your final destination won't be a place of torment? Jesus came into this world to give you life and make it more abundant (John 10:10). God sent Him to make it possible for anyone who believes in Him to have eternal life (John 3:16). Nothing you acquire in this world can compare to the eternity in heaven. What's the benefit of gaining the whole world but losing your soul? (Mark 8:36).  Don't be caught napping. Accept Christ as your Lord and Savior today and secure your eternal home.

FREE INDEED

 Upon arrival at the site, I noticed a dove tied down by one of my employees. When I requested its release, he stated his intention to sell it. After asking for the price, he informed me, and I asked him to release the bird, which he did, and then I paid for it.  The Scripture says “When we were utterly helpless, Christ came at just the right time and died for us sinners.” Romans 5:6. By paying the price with his precious blood, Jesus Christ made it possible for us to be set free and welcome into God's family. Ephesians 1:5 “God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.”  Our new status as His slaves necessitates us to do His pleasure and avoid taking things for granted. Romans 6:22 say “But now you are free from the power of sin and have become slaves of God. Now you do those things that lead to holiness and result in eternal life”.  We are free from condemnation

SIN IS A VIRUS AND IT KILLS

Coronavirus which came from Wuhan a city in China has killed many throughout the world by now.  The disease that the virus causes has been named COVID-19, which stands for coronavirus disease 2019. Efforts are being made so as to produce a vaccine that can conquer this terrible virus. (How good the world would have been if leaders of nations can come together against sins like this) Sin also found its way into the world through Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden thousand of years back and individuals, organizations and nations do less or nothing to contain this in fact in we are just scheming a new way of sining daily.  If we check the Scripture very well, we will discover that diseases are always the fruit of disobedience; Exodus 15:26 He said, “If you will listen carefully to the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in his sight, obeying his commands and keeping all his decrees, then I will not make you suffer any of the diseases I sent on the Egyptians; for I am
