We are being assaulted every day by deceptive messages. It seems that we are constantly in a battle to discern the lies (and the work of Satan, the father of lies) so that we can embrace and speak the truth. The Apostle Paul made it clear that we needed the truth to stand against the schemes of the devil (Ephesians 6:11).
