Subtle Suggestions

After having served the Lord for 25 years now, I am understanding the enemy's tactics are best seen in his subtlely. He always approaches very carefully. A full-on assault is not normally the way he operates. Think about it. He sows lying suggestions to you. This is the way he operated in the garden with Eve. It is the way he operated with Christ in the wilderness.

He is always trying to distort the Truth. Christ is all I need. Yet, he would have me believe I can hang on to Christ, while hanging on to other things. He would have me live in a double-mindedness. I cannot be satisfied with such a life. For, my Father in Heaven never intended me to live in such a manner. He intended I be fully His. This is why His Son was given as a sacrifice for my sin.

We must reject the lies the enemy would have us believe. Our rejection must be complete and encompass the subtle suggestions the enemy would have us embrace.
