"The Art of Deception"

The Art of Deception is about gaining someone’s trust by lying to them and then abusing that trust for fun and profit.



The master of deception is none other than Satan. He wants you to succeed and be prosperous if you will only do things his way. Do you understand that, if you will do things his way? First, he convinces you he is not Satan at all. He wants you to believe he is of good spirit and has your best interest at heart. Satan is smarter than most people imagine and God has given him extensive powers in order to deceive people, God allows him to get to the best of us. God also equips each of us with the knowledge to know good from bad. God is in control of evil as well as good. Isaiah 45: 5-7 5 I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: 6 That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else. 7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.


1John 5:19 19And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness. 20And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. 21Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.

Lies, deception, and cons are my games. All I have to do to create havoc and destruction here on earth is to disguise myself as a promoter of what seems like a good cause. I love to offer you all those things that look good, tease you with them. Like your neighbor’s wife or even that shiny new lawn mower they have, oh come on it will not hurt you to borrow it, laughing, go ahead ask her out for coffee, it will not hurt anyone; surely, if you sleep with her it will be forgiven.


What is the price of little lies and some deception anyway, who will it hurt, oh come on now. You will love the place I have prepared for you.


The price is spending eternity in a place that is very hot and extremely uncomfortable. You are prepared for that, you been living this life of deception? A life of burning, being with those just like you, nothing but thieves, complainers, murderers, you know a little pain amongst friends. Fighting, starving, well come on you deceived us all what is a little anger now, what happened, were you caught?


Know the truth and live the truth, the truth is Jesus Christ…


Exodus 20:14 Thou shalt not commit adultery. 15 Thou shalt not steal. 16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. 17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house; thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, or his manservant, or his maidservant, or his ox, or his ass, or any thing that is thy neighbor's.


Satan is great at making he look good to you, to talking you into doing deceiving things towards others. You have to remember that Satan is a fallen angel; He was Gods favorite and best. Seek deep within yourself before you do things that seem wrong, get on your knees and ask God to intercede and help you to make wise decisions in all things that you do here on earth. Satan will try to convince you that it will not hurt anything, all the while he will be laughing his head off, knowing he has you in his pocket.


Job27:4 My lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit.


Father, we are confronted with deception on many fronts every day, so much so, that we can be deceived without even realizing it. Would you help us to watch out and be on our guard so that we are not deceived by man’s words, no matter how convincing they are, how charming their personality. We seek you for strength and discipline. We search the Scriptures for discernment and the true revelation of who Jesus is. Thank you Father in Jesus Holy name, Amen!
