The spirit of deceit

The spirit of deceit has become a powerful spirit in our country today gaining 
much ground over the people of this land. Lies and purposeful deceit have become 
acceptable practice in our daily lives. A darkness of deceit is overtaking a 
land that once had highly esteemed truth and honesty and integrity. We see it in 
the media, we see it in our political leaders, we see it in businesses and 
individuals, we even see it within the church. 'Therefore justice is far from 
us, And righteousness does not overtake us; We hope for light, but behold, 
darkness, for brightness, but we walk in gloom.' (Isaiah 59:9) 
 
The only answer to combating this blight of darkness that grows upon the land is 
the Light which is the Grace and Truth of Jesus…where the True Light shines, the 
darkness is overcome.
