35. God Can Not Be Trusted and Five Other Lies of Satan - Tony Evans

P: This is such a neat little book that is packed full of truths for the Christian life. I read it in a sitting but it has reminded me of my need to put my trust in God's faithful promises in the Bible--each and every one of them!--because He is a God who never lies. I have often fallen prey of the lies that the Enemy throws at us.
-Take time to take up your Sword: "That means reading, studying, and meditating on the Bible daily. e.g. Jesus in the wilderness, knowing how to respond to the devil with God's Word. Often we feel frustrated about the bad things in life and get tired when we have God's Word there already. "All we need to do is obey the words of Jesus and abide in that Word and we'll have an answer for any lie or temptation Satan throws our way." p.47
-"You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore." Ps 16:11
"By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharoah's daughter, choosing rather to be mistreated with the people of God than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin. He considered the reproach of Christ greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt, for he was looking to the reward." Heb 11:24-26
-"The only question each of us has to answer is, Whose words am I going to believe? Those of a spiritual enemy who hates us more than we can imagine, or those of a heavenly Father whose love for us surpasses our ability to comprehend?" p.91
