Daily Devotional, Year 4 – March 9

.

A World of Lies

.

Part 14:

“It’s a Cuttlefish World! Yellow Journalism Today!” FURTHER CONTINUED

To read Part 1, click here… “January 3 (World of Lies, Part 1: The Femme-Fatale Firefly!)”

.

“I said in my haste, All men are liars…

God forbid: yea, let God be true,

but every man a liar…”

Psalm 116:11 & Romans 3:4

.

CUTTLEFISH: THE ULTIMATE IMPOSTORS!

.

One of the most amazing creatures ever created is the Cuttlefish!

Actually, it is not a fish, but a type of mollusk, like a squid, or an octopus.

.

The reason why this creature is so incredible, is that it can just glance at its environment and instantly change its body to imitate that environment.

.

For instance, if it wants to hide from its enemies, or lie-in-wait for its victims, next to a seaweed, it simply changes its color, spots, and shape to imitate that seaweed.

It can even instantly grow leaf-like appendages to imitate certain seaweeds!

.

This little creature is nothing short of amazing!

YELLOW JOURNALISM: TODAY’S INDUSTRY-STANDARD

.

It is nothing short of amazing to hear the amount and degree of hypocrisy, obfuscation, story-spiking, and abject lies, etc., in today’s media, when it comes to anything that may have an effect on politically-divided issues.

.

Very often, it’s almost like the major media has gone completely insane, because of their jealousy for their own political ideology!

It almost seems as though many political radicals might even rather see the entire nation fail, than to lose the slightest political advantage.

.

And as of late, the lying has gotten to the point that it’s become obvious to anyone who hears them!

“…YEA, LET GOD BE TRUE, AND EVERY MAN A LIAR”

.

Be that as it may, these political and media leaders don’t seem to care that they are making themselves look disingenuous!

They believe that their equally zealous listeners will accept those lies even though it’s an obvious deception!

.

But listen to God’s assessment of the human heart…“let God be true, but every man a liar” Romans 3:4

.

Yes, the Bible tells us that every one of us is a liar, in heart.

.

OUR ‘DESPERATELY WICKED’ HEARTS!

.

And if the above assessment isn’t bad enough, just listen to Jeremiah’s assessment of the human heart condition…

“The heart is deceitful above all things,

and desperately wicked:

who can know it?”

Jeremiah 17:9

.

Here is another verse which completely condemns the entire human race.

.

We all have incredibly corrupt and self-deceiving hearts…all of us!

.

THE SPIRIT OF ANTICHRIST IN US

.

And the reason why we are so corrupt, is found in the following passage…

“Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world,

according to the prince of the power of the air,

the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:”

Ephesians 2:2

.

ANTICHRISTS: THE UNSAVED PEOPLE OF THE WORLD

.

**Now listen to this next passage which speaks of the “Spirit of truth”, and also, the “spirit of error”…**

“They (antichrists) are of the world:

therefore speak they of the world,

and the world heareth them.

We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us;

he that is not of God heareth not us.

Hereby know we the “Spirit of truth”,

and the “spirit of error”.

1st John 4:5, 6

.

So, no wonder that so many of the unsaved leaders of our society and today’s media are so willing to lie!

**They are possessed by the “spirit of error”.**

“GOOD NEWS FROM A FAR COUNTRY!”

Proverbs 25:25

.

But amidst all this horrible news, there nevertheless is some Good News!

.

Yes, this is still the day of Salvation!

And anyone who desires to escape the awful judgments now coming down upon the world, still has a chance to escape all these things!

And those who are sick and tired of being possessed by the spirit of lying and error can cry out for God’s mercy and grace!

.

And should God peradventure give us repentance to the acknowledging of the truth, we will then receive the “Spirit of Truth” in which God’s Holy Spirit will come and make His abode in our hearts!

.

And no more will Satan be our father!

But God will now become our Father and give us a love for the truth!

THE END

TODAY’S FEATURED HEAVENLY SIGN

.

THE NARROW GATE STARS

.

**It is apparent that the Fleeing Woman of Revelation 12 Constellation is veering toward the two bright stars, known as Castor and Pollux (sketch to below left).**

**But the Wide Gate Stars are composed of the two brightest stars of the Auriga Constellation, known as the star, Capella, and the star, Menkalinan.**

**The two stars, Castor and Pollux, make up the concept of the Orion’s Narrow Gate Stars.**

.

This can even be observed into June in the western sky (for a short time just after dark).

**While a dark night is best for seeing the Woman Constellation, the 4 stars which comprise the Narrow Gate/Wide Gate Stars can be seen even under mediocre conditions.**

It begins with the Fleeing Woman of Revelation 12 Constellation (AKA Ursa Major) going towards these two doors.
