1 John 3:7 Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous.

There will be many who try to change your mind about things by saying things to you and doing things differently; what we need to do is take a good look at what they are doing.

Those people who always do the right stuff are generally good people and those who do not are generally not. I say generally because there will be those who do things to deceive.

It is easy for a good person to get something wrong when they are trying to be good. It is very hard for a bad person to not do something bad. Spot the difference?

Matthew 13:38 The field is the world, the good seeds are the sons of the kingdom, but the tares are the sons of the wicked one.

It is very easy for us to forget just who those weeds are that have been sown in amongst our good crops; but they are the people of Satan, his followers, people who do not know God!

Whilst many of them are simply there out of ignorance and cannot help it, there are some who have made the active choice to be there to support the one they think they can trust.

Do not ever be fooled into thinking that you can trust the evil one because his heart is not to support you but to bring you down and away from God; that is all!

Trust in God alone.

Matthew 13:25 but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way.

Can you imagine what it would be like to think that you have planted a good crop of wheat and find out that all manner of other weeds are growing instead of your wheat?

We have an urgency to get God’s Word out to people and we have to keep that up. If we do not then the enemy will come in and sow all manner of strange thoughts instead.

God’s Word needs to be told and we are now waking up to a second or third generation of people who have hardly heard the gospel because the enemy’s voice is being heard instead.
