The Enemy Deceives Us


Billy Graham's Daily Devotion
22 Feb 2012

In every battle you will need faith as your shield to stop the fiery arrows aimed at you by Satan.
–Ephesians 6:16 (TLB)

Many jokes are made about the devil, but the devil is no joke. If a short time ago I had talked about Satan to university students, they would have made light of him, but no longer. Students today want to know about the devil, about witchcraft, about the occult. Many people do not know they are turning to Satan. They are being deluded because, according to Jesus Christ, Satan is the father of lies and the greatest liar of all times. He is called a deceiver. In order to accomplish his purpose, the devil blinds people to their need of Christ. Two forces are at work in our world—the forces of Christ and the forces of the devil—and you are asked to choose.

PRAYER FOR THE DAY
I have chosen to serve You, my Lord Jesus. Give me Your strength to battle the deceptions of Satan.

Como hay alegrías, hay tristezas

Como hay alegrías por oraciones contestadas como que los papas de Santi no se tienen que ir de la casa Gloria a Dios!! Lamento de todo corazón informarles que el abuelito de Sara, falleció hoy y ella nos pide que la acompañemos en oración y pide por su familia en Colombia. Para la Gloria de Dios hay fiesta en los cielos porque su Abuelito amaba a Dios y siempre le reconoció como Salvador. Orar sin cesar!! Dando Gloria a Dios!

In His Eyes

July 23, 2012 Mary Southerland Today's Truth I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be ( Psalm 139:14-15 , NIV). Friend to Friend It was my first day of teaching second grade. While standing at the classroom door, greeting parents and children, I felt a tug on my skirt. I looked down into the beautiful blue eyes of Sammy, one of my new students.  His mother, who was standing beside Sammy, looked at me and said, "I guess you've heard about Sammy.  Good luck!" As she walked away, Sammy said, "She's right. I'm dumb and mean and can't read or write."  Lisa was a tall, blonde and beautiful young woman with zero self-confidence. Lisa was...
