Perhaps there is no greater deception the evil one plays on a person than the belief they do not need God. The evil one whispers in a person ears and mind, “I don’t need God – I am my own god.” His desire is to make you believe this lie. It is the same lie he told Eve in the Garden of Eden. Once he has you believing it is all up to you and only you then he has you.
Throughout Scripture it becomes evident the closer a creation comes to God the more that creation wants to become God. How do we then battle this desire of our flesh? How do we stand firm against the schemes of the evil one to abandon God for our own desires?
Join with me as I look at this topic and give clarity on how to win this battle.
