Journey To Loving Me: Exposing The Lies

by Beautifies The Meek, 7:37 PM
 
The devil is nicknamed the Father of Lies. The only things that come out of him are lies.

So why do we believe them?
Why do we allow lies to shape our existence or our futures?

We don't accept lies from anyone, for instance if my sister lies to me that is unacceptable and I wouldn't appreciate it or receive it.
The devil’s lies on the other hand are being received as truth everyday. His lies are more cunning and sophisticated; they’re not the type of lies you can always pick up on. His lies are subtle and they are spoken into our lives when we are at our weakest moments. I believe this to be true because I have major weak moments ALL THE TIME. I have battled depression and low self-esteem since I was a teenager. At the most weakest moments in my life that's when I heard the lies so loud and clear and because I didn't hear anything to combat those lies they became my truth. Even today those lies replay in my head like a broken record and somehow they are shaping who I am and my future.

God is not too happy with that! Only because he has this Massive, detailed, thoughtful, expected end for my life and I am not accepting or walking in it.

God said to me enough is enough. Work through your stuff. (I don't hear audible voices…just thoughts; he speaks to me through thoughts.)

3 major lies that have affected me in major ways although this is personal but I want to be transparent with you all.

1. YOU WILL NEVER BE A LEADER
2. YOU ARE NOT BEAUTIFUL
3. YOU WILL NEVER GET MARRIED OR HAVE CHILDREN

These were deposited as lies but have become my reality, in my head. I am learning everyday these are not true but in the back of my mind…

By writing the lies out they are being EXPOSED and in this process they are being proved as lies (For instance I was a praise & worship leader for quite some time and clearly satan was wrong about that one). The only thing that can cancel out these lies is the TRUTH that IS Christ Jesus and his word.

I am the way THE TRUTH and the life – John 14:6

If he is the truth then we need to get to know him and his truth. God has showed me that I don't believe his truth whole-heartedly because I don't know him very well. God expects and desires a relationship with us. In our evolving relationship with Christ we get to know his truth and we get grounded in it. So whenever the lies come because you have such a close intimate relationship with Christ those lies, opinions, suggestions don't stand a chance to the truth that is embedded in you.

I don't know what lies the enemy has spoken into your life but do a heart check often. Make sure you are not living the lie as if it is truth. When a lie is spoken over and over again it begins to take on the appearance of truth until it becomes true to you. A Lie is often easier to receive than the truth, let that one soak and marinate in your members. Lol.
