Just a Twist of Truth

In Genesis chapter 2 verse 15 it says, "Then the Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it." The word keep in Hebrew means to guard, to watch over it. What was Adam guarding against? The Lord goes on from there to speak of every tree you may eat of, but the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you may not eat of, because if you eat of it you will die. Adam knew there was a deceiver and that his job was to guard against that deceiver before the fall. Satan did not just show up one day in the form of a serpent and fool Adam and Eve.

What Satan did was persuade Eve that she could have something she did not have at that time. He enticed her with what she did not have. Nothing has changed today. Satan entices us with what we think we cannot have by making us believe what we have is not enough. If we could just have this or that, then we would be happy.  

I want you to notice that in chapter three after they ate of the tree they did receive the knowledge Satan spoke of, but with a twist. When they heard the Lord coming they hid themselves because they were afraid. What did they get with the promise of being like God? Fear!

As I read about some of the famous people, like Beyonce, Kanye West, Miley Cyrus, those that have sold out to Satan's deceit of fame and fortune, what has been the twist for them? They too live in fear. 

I have found that if I am fearful of something, it is always because I have let Satan's evil schemes deceive me in some way. If I take a moment and really face the fear, I can always see the truth that Satan has taken and twisted it just enough to get one over on me!

If you live in fear, what have you been deceived by? What has Satan twisted in your life?  

Lord I pray for those today who have been decieved by the twist of Satan's schemes. Show them truth, and set them free from fear. In Jesus name, Amen!
