The Thief

 

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life,and have it to the full.John 10:10 NIV Bible Gateway 

In the book of John in today’s verse it mentions the ‘thief’ meaning Satan. He is a destroyer of families, marriages, truth, and relationships. He destroys good things and godly things. He sets family members against each other. The thing is you have to recognize it as being from your enemy Satan and not a personal attack. 

Today it seems as though tensions are flaring and the world or at least here in the US seems to be in a war or good versus evil, right versus wrong, truth versus lies. Only the Holy Spirit can speak to a person’s heart to set them free. It does no good to try to bring peace without God in the center of it. 

Are you actively pursuing a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ? If not why not? Search your heart and ask yourself what is keeping you from running hard after God. This carnal works certainly has nothing to offer. My friend Jesus is the way, the truth, the Life and He is waiting for you to be all in. Do it today! 

PRAYER: Father I hate Satan and hate how he blinds people I know and love to the truth. I ask Lord that you expose the lies of the enemy to those I love so much. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
