The Never Lie
You’ll never make it. You’ll never be successful. You’ll never get married. You’ll never change. It’s never going to happen for you.
Have you ever heard these lies parade through your mind? I know I have and so have countless others like me who have dreams for their lives.
When you are on the right track, the enemy comes in and attacks your mind with these thoughts that things are never going to change, that you are going to be stuck in your present circumstances for the rest of your life.
Jesus says in John 8:44 that the devil is the author of all lies, that the truth is not in him. Whatever he tells you, the opposite has to be true because he is a liar.
The devil cannot stop your destiny, your purpose in life, but he can get you to abort the mission yourself. He beats your mind down with the never lies until you want to throw your hands up and wave the white flag of surrender.
You can’t let that happen. You have to stay the course. You have to fight the good fight of faith.
How do you do that? By building yourself up in the Word of God. You have to study who you are--and your rights--as a Born-again child of the Most High God.
Feed on the Word. You wouldn’t go into battle without reading the battle plan. Neither should you do battle with the devil without reading the Battle Plan--the Word of God.
Play CDs and cassettes while you are sleeping. Make time each day to read the Bible. Listen to good teaching on television and on the radio. Continuously put the Word into your ears because faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of God.
Talk the Word. Speak what God says. Agree with His Word by speaking it. When you get a bad report, speak the Word. Alone in your car? Speak the Word. Get up in the morning speaking the Word. Go to bed at night speaking the Word. Keep the Word continuously on your lips.
Praise God. Having a rough time? Take five, ten, minutes a day just to thank God for all the good things He has done in your life. Do this every day, and in time, your attitude will change.
Continually feeding on the Word, speaking the Word and praising God--these are the antidotes to the never lie. So the next time the devil tells you that you will never change or the other never lies, hit him with the antidote–the ever-living, True Word of God.
