WHY DO PEOPLE LIE?

Why do people actually lie, even though they know that the truth will always come to light?
Is it maybe because they are scared of what others will say? Fear is not of the Lord (2 Timothy 1:7).

Could it be because they want to be accepted? It is better to do the right thing and be rejected by men than to be accepted by man and rejected by God. (Proverbs 21:3) (Acts 10:355).

Could it be that they are crippled by the fear of facing the truth? Deuteronomy 31:6 Says……..Be strong and courageous for i will never leave you.
In life, you have to be courageous and stand for the truth even when the situation is not convenient, even when all you need to encourage yourself is not available, else you will remain at one place motionless waiting. But, the truth on the other hand, always finds himself back to life, and when this happens, no lie can save you. (JOHN 14:6) Says…..I am the way, the truth, and the life.

One thing you should know is that reality is different and what matters is that no one finds out that what pushes people to do what they do is the reason not their heart.

People think that whosoever follows his or her emotions can’t lie, that is why so many people are being fooled daily. So many people are blinded by lies because they are convinced that majority of their encounters are coincidental, but what they don’t know is that things don’t just happen.
There are also those who believe that the heart knows what we really want. They believe that it’s the compass that guide us to happiness. But it’s a lie! Following your heart can make you act foolishly sometimes, and this always end badly………Remember what (Matthew 15:19) Says…….For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:

As believers, we are not led by the flesh neither are we to allow our emotions to control us……(ROMANS 8:12‭-‬13) Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.‬

Some people make decisions based on fear, while some encounters are initiated based on what MEN stands to gain even if it causes them to kill, steal or tell a lie.

LIFE IS BEYOND WHAT WE SEE WITH OUR PHYSICAL EYES. LIFE IS SPIRITUAL AND ONLY THE SPIRITUAL CAN TRADE AND MAKE PROFIT!

(ROMANS 8:6) For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

PRAYER:
I pray that the good Lord open our SPIRITUAL EYE that we may see and discern the crafty works and plans of the devil in Jesus Name.
May you never be a victim of an arranged situation in Jesus Name Amen.

SHALOM!
