Deliver Me From Deception
“Take heed that no one deceives you” — Matthew 24:4, Jesus speaking about signs of His coming and of the end of the age. Deception is not new. It goes all the way back to the Garden of Eden and the father of lies. But the Bible says it will grow substantially worse in the last of the last days. Today, it permeates the world as never before. The tools of deception have become a thousand times more powerful and prolific. “Deliver my soul, O Lord, from lying lips And from a deceitful tongue” — Psalms 120:2. The battle against deception increasingly defines our lives. People fear answering the phone if they don’t see a number they recognize. They are afraid to help a car in distress on the side of the road because it might be a robber’s ruse. Wariness is up because deception is up.
