In these chaotic times, many sense the urgency yet get drawn in by subtle ‘external forces’ shaping our world. God is sovereign, but His control tests our allegiance. Hearing calls for ‘unity in Christ’ more often? How do you test if it’s truly from Him?
Every trap begins as a suggestion, not a seizure. Satan cannot kick the door of the will off its hinges; he is a trespasser without a key. What he can do is lean against the window and whisper a line that rhymes with your own hunger: “You’ve earned a drink.” “One click won’t hurt.” “God helps those who help themselves—so help yourself.” The voice sounds outside at first, but with each repetition, it starts to sound more and more like your own. What began as a suggestion now feels like your very identity.
