Deliver us, Lord, from the Devil and His Poisonous Lies!

Just a little bit of doubt, a little bit of fear, a little bit of complaint, a little bit of discouragement, can grow and grow until you are totally defeated. That little crack in your armour is where the Devil begins to seep in, and then his gas of deceit begins to poison you.

The Lord allows the Devil to attack sometimes in order to teach us lessons and in order to drive us closer to Jesus, but He never allows him to overcome us if we will hold onto the Lord and plead His protection and His purification and His purging of our sins which do so easily beset us!

The Lord is the antidote! The only cure is to call on Jesus, call on the Spirit of God! Call on the Lord and ask Him to deliver you! "Resist the Devil and he will flee from you! Draw nigh to God and He will draw nigh to you."[James 4:7b-8a] Be thoroughly inoculated by the Spirit of God. Build up a genuine spiritual resistance. Pray deserately and let the blood of Jesus flow to cleanse the wound and purify your spiritual body from the poison of the Devil's venom, washed in the pure water of the word! Ask the Lord to do a miracle and deliver you, because only God can do it! You are not stronger than the Devil, but God is!
