Lie detecting spotlight.........

Good morning everyone. We had a good night a church last night. We were able to have a young man come and sing praises to God that blessed all of us. Are we convenient lovers? How much do we love God? When do we love God? Let's dig into the good stuff and see how we should love!

Bible Verse: Mark 12:30 "And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength.."

Jesus was talking about Satan in John 8:44 and said, "He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it". Satan is a clever liar. In fact, many of his lies sound like the truth. He plays with our minds to confuse us. Satan can tell you a lie so good that you might even think it is God telling you it. See, that's how he can gain ground with us. He lies about the biggest subject of all God. Satan wants to deceive you about God. If he can distort your idea of God, then beyond the shadow of any doubt, he has you in everything else. We have to armor up with God's armor so that we can resist those lies and we can shine our lie detecting spotlight on them. Boy, I sure do wish Lifeway or Cedar Springs would sell one of those. I would probably carry it around with me everywhere I went and have extra batteries. But, check this out....We do have a lie detector. His name is Jesus. He knew that the devil was tempting Him and God gave Him a way to escape. God will always give us an avenue of escape. We might have to just open our eyes and look for it and not just throw in the towel. Let's keep our eyes on Jesus and love God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength! He deserves it!!!! Have a great day, I love you, and God bless!
