Matthew 12:22-28
Every city or household divided against itself will not
stand. Matthew 12:25
Jan did a double
take. Wasn't that Beth coming out of
that R-rated movie noted for its portrayal of sex and foul language? Strange.
Beth had told Jan that she was a Christian and believed the Bible. Well, maybe Beth hadn't known how bad the
movie would be.
A few weeks later,
while at work in the doctor's office, Jan saw Beth's name scheduled for an
abortion. She thought, Beth must believe
what the media says: Free choice over her body is a woman's right. Maybe it's alright after all. Is Jesus for real, or what?
How easily Satan's
lies permeate our society and our thoughts.
I cannot listen to them and to Christ, too. If I am a temple of the Lord, each time I
weaken and believe Satan's lies, another chink in the mortar of my foundation
crumbles. Each word of Scripture
absorbed into my heart and head, however, repairs and rebuilds a firmer foundation
and I am strong against the foe.
Let Christ banish our demons.
