The Truth About The Father of Lies

I'm not sure why this came into my head, but maybe it is a word for someone.

Father - n. any male ancestor, especially the founder of a racefamily, or lineprogenitor. (www.dictionary.com)

God is our Heavenly Father. That means that we are His children and we are made in His image. It means we inherit His power and glory, and he wants to take care of us. God's Word is Truth and he wants us to know the Truth. God's power is not dependent on us. He will always have supreme power whether or not we do, but because He loves us as children, He bestows it on us if we ask. God is everywhere and all we have to do is call out to Him.

Satan is the "Father of Lies." That means from the first lie that he spoke into existence in the Garden of Eden, all subsequent lies are in his image. Satan fancies himself as high as God, but he isn't. He's a fake god. Therefore his lies are fake versions of the truth. Satan's power is great and so is the power of his lies; however, the power of lies IS dependent on us. Without our belief, he and his lies are powerless. Satan is not omni-present, so he has to rely on his seed to do his work for him.

Here are some more thoughts:

1. Satan is far stronger than humans, but his might is totally incomparable to God's.
2. Satan is limited. He doesn't have time or the ability to attack everyone personally.
3. God is not limited. He can care for everyone at any time, anywhere.
4. It only takes faith the size of a mustard seed to bring demonic oppression crashing down.
5. God never speaks guilt or disappointment into your life.
6. Satan doesn't want you to accomplish anything, so he uses his lies to tell you that you can't or makes you feel foolish for trying.
7. Satan doesn't want you to be loved, so his lies tell you that you can't be, or else they make you look for love in the wrong ways.
8. If a person speaks evil into your life, he/she is buying into a lie. Therefore you need to pray for him/her, not hate.
9. If you feel oppressed, thank God that you are His child and that you have the victory.

THE LIAR KING

Jesus said there is no truth in the devil.

John 8:44 ...the devil...for he is a liar and the father of lies.

THE DEVIL IS THE LIAR KING!

The devil lied to Eve in the garden and she believed him. She confessed to God. (Genesis 3:13 ..."The serpent deceived me, and I ate.")

There could be no worse confession to make on Judgment Day than, "The serpent deceived me, and I ate."

THE DEVIL IS THE LIAR KING!

John 14:6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father but through Me.

THE LIAR KING SAYS: "We are not to judge, surely, there are many different ways to the Father."

Hebrew 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and is a rewarder of those who seek Him.

THE LIAR KING SAYS: "If we do not have faith, it is God's fault; because God grants faith to those He has selected for salvation." He says, "No man can seek God."

Mark 16:16 He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned.

THE LIAR KING SAYS: "Immersion in water has nothing to do with your salvation." The liar king says, "When Jesus said has been baptized shall be saved; He really meant to say already has been saved from the time he believed."

The devil is the master of deceit. Duplicity and distortion is his game.

THE DEVIL IS THE LIAR KING!
