2 Samuel Fifteen

Deception is the number one tool of the enemy. Its damage can leave a path of destruction through all that it ravages. It attacks from the outside-in. As it works its way into our hearts, our perception is eskewed. When the enemy is on the attack, he will take what is true and twist it just enough to get us in trouble, but not enough to make us run.

Absalom is spreading deceit throughout David's kingdom. If we were watching this in movie form, it would be so obvious. Even as we read it, we get the sense that all is not right. But for the people effected, the deception is masked by the illusion of sincerity.

Be watchful for deception's evil sting. It can do great damage.

"Father, help me see."
