Beloved, whatever we are gripping to bring us satisfaction is a lie-unless it is Christ. He is the Truth that sets us free. If you are holding anything in your craving for satisfaction right now, would you be willing to acknowledge it as a lie? Even if you feel you can't let go of it right this moment, would you lift it before Him-perhaps literally lifting your fisted hand as a symbol-and confess it as an idol? God does not condemn you. He calls you.
Beth MooreMake no mistake: Satanโs specialty is psychological warfare. If he can turn us on God (โItโs not fair!โ), or turn us on others (โItโs their fault!โ), or turn us on ourselves (โIโm so stupid!โ), we wonโt turn on him. If we keep fighting within ourselves and losing our own inner battles, weโll never have the strength to stand up and fight our true enemy.
