Day 283 (Through the Bible in a year readings for today: Isaiah 43,44; Colossians 2)
DON’T BE DECEIVED
“See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ.” (Colossians 2:8 ESV)
No one wants to be deceived. No one wants to be led in the wrong direction. That’s why Paul wrote these words. He is warning us about listening to the lies of Satan that come to us in the form of human opinion.
For us Christians, God’s Word is the guiding light that illuminates the truth of Christ Jesus: “Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6 ESV)
Heavenly Father, protect me from the deceptive thinking of this world. Please lead me in the way of truth through faith in Jesus, my Savior. Amen.
"See" you in church this morning!
