DON’T DECEIVE YOURSELF
By Pastor Ayo-Simeon Agbelusi
It’s common to see people deceiving you or acting pretentiously but it’s evil if you are the one deceiving yourself. In this time and age, we are constantly seeing deception and spiritual camouflage in the Christian fold and this shouldn’t be happening. We are called to be doers of the Word and to obey divine instructions if we truly want divine manifestations.
Read the scriptures below carefully and prayerfully:
James 1:22-25 KJV
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. [23] For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: [24] For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. [25] But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
You can’t enjoy the life that God gives until you are ready to stop self deceit and yield your entire life to God in genuine repentance and unto righteous living. God is true to us, be true to yourself, be genuine in your walk amongst men and refuse to meddle in the operations of darkness. Take a decision today and make up your mind to be a good and faithful follower of the Lord Jesus Christ. It shall be well with you, Amen.
Pray with me: Father, Please help me. Deliver me from all my secret sins and give me the grace to totally renounce darkness and begin to operate according to the light of your word.

I know many people have been deceived by their pastors in different ways.
