This morning I started off my chaptee by listening to an Abide Meditation. Here is the content of the Meditation.
The devil stands ready to trick you. How can you be prepared to resist his lies. Sometimes the devil will trick you by telling you what you want to hear. He tickles your ears and make you feel good.
Some times the devil will whisper that you have special knowledge that other people don't have. He'll use lies that separate you from people you love. How can you resist the temptation to fall for these lies.
Our first line of defence is the word of God. God gives His truth to protect us from satan lyes in Ephesians 6:14.
Paul calls truth a belt we can put it in circles and protect our organs. It keeps our pants from fallen down and embarrassing us.
Place your hand in a place were a belt would be and as you breathe deeply through this, pause ask God to protect you with his truth. Ask God to present any lies pertaining into your inner most parts.
Stand there before having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness.
So the next time your thinking about filling your mind with voices of your favourite talk radio program of cable news show. Or next time your thinking of turning to facebook to find the truth. Pause and choose instead to let the word of God dwell in.
The truth is not always easy to hear but always good to know.
Heavenly Father of all the voices I hear through out my day I want your voices your voice to be the loudest I want to know. You and the guide by your spirit into all truth.
Protect, me from the lies of the enemy. Open my eyes strengthen my mind and soften heart to hear you in the name of jesus I pray amen.
All of us have whether we meant to or not told lies. All of have believed lies. And we have all failed to love the truth as we should. Take a moment and confess your sins to the lord.
Now hear this truth when you confess your sins. God is faithfull and just to forgive you and to cleanse you from all unrighteousness.
Father God I take in so much information every day it flys at me from radio, social media, television and I know that my own bias can get in the way of me really knowing what's true. Give me eyes to see your truth and ears to hear it. Protect me from the lies of the evil and and set me free from the lies of the evil one and set me free with your truth. In the name of jesus I pray Amen.
The truth is not always easy to hear, but dear friend it's always good. Set your heart in God's truth today.. untill the next time in Christ
Then I got up and went into my study and I opened my Bible at todays verse. Corinthians 4:18
2 Corinthians 4:18 NIV
So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
This is The Life Lesson from Max Lucado for this verse
So it's bed time and the end of todays Chapter. And I just love how it ended I was looking on Amazon for a heart shaped mirror heart like my Serenity Prayer one. And I found one that's just for me.
