To live in such a deceptive world and to still believe in the Lord Jesus Christ is a blessing within itself. The enemy throws everything at us, trying to turn our hearts away from him, and yet, here we are, still loving Jesus and worshipping him for the amazing Savior that he is. The distractions are real, and the time wasted on those diversions is a tragedy and a part of the deception. Looking for the truth and sorting through all the lies to find it is a daunting task, but not impossible. We must remember that everyone has been lied to; there are no exceptions. The most talented, gifted, well-educated people are not immune to the deceivers' cunningness. The hardest thing to do is read your Bible without having the teaching of the past color your beliefs, but with the help of the Holy Spirit, we can overcome that darkness and see the glimmer of light shining through. However, even if you never uncover the truth, but you keep your eyes set on Jesus, you have already defeated the enemy! Worship God with all your heart, and the soothing balm of fresh oil will comfort you, and the workers of iniquity will be scattered.
But thou, LORD, art most high for evermore. For, lo, thine enemies, O LORD, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered. But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of a unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil. Psalms 92:8-10
