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 sea-weed, it simply changes its color, spots, and shape to imitate that sea-weed. It can even instantly grow leaf-like appendages to imitate certain sea-weeds!

.

This little creature is nothing short of amazing!

CUTTLEFISH: SYMBOL OF SATAN

.

Well, God has created this little predator to give us further insight into the inner working of the kingdom of Satan.

(As this little 26 second video below shows, the Cuttlefish has the ability to paralyze his potential victims, by using his hypnotizing strobe-light effect! Amazing!)

.

Certainly Satan and his unseen minions love to make themselves invisible! That way, they can work their misery and woe upon this unsuspecting world, without its inhabitants becoming alarmed, causing us to rebel against Satan’s kingdom, as we flee to God!

.

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-correct issues.

.

Very often, it’s almost like the major media has gone completely insane, because of their jealousy for their own political ideology! It seems as though they would 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 know that their listeners are every bit as zealous for their political party as they are, and 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

.

Here is the awful truth: the entire unsaved human race is indwelt with the spirit of antichrist…

“And every spirit that confesseth not

that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God:

and this is that spirit of antichrist,

whereof ye have heard that it should come;

and even now already is it in the world.”

1st John 4:3

.

Here it is! There is a spirit of antichrist which rules over this world and indwells all unsaved humans.

ANTICHRISTS: THE UNSAVED PEOPLE OF THE WORLD

.

**Now listen to the above passage continues, 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”.**

THE DEVIL: THE FATHER OF LIES

.

As Jesus said…“Ye are of your father the devil,

and the lusts of your father ye will do…

When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own:

for he is a liar, and the father of it.

And because I tell you the truth, ye believe Me not.”

John 8:44, 45

.

Oh wow! This is such a stinging condemnation of us all, it is no wonder that we put Him on the Cross just a short time later, for saying such things!

.

Well, because this world has a giant schism right down the middle between the two major political ideologies, the following prophecy is now coming to fruition…

“Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation;

and a house divided against a house falleth.”

Matthew 12:25 & Luke 11:17

.

Yes, the current strife between the two major ideologies is more or less a hopeless and even a pandemic condition. And it is clear evidence that we have arrived at the end. Satan’s kingdom of this world is dividing, and cannot stand according to this above verse.

“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!

TODAY’S FEATURED HEAVENLY SIGN

Info & pics of constellations on this site from Wikipedia & International Astronomical Union (click here)

.

THE NARROW GATE STARS

This most amazing phenomenon is seen throughout the winter. Although it can be observed most of the winter, it is seen best when it is the western part of the sky, at winter’s end (The end of winter being the final scene of this heavenly Gospel story). Orion , the Dragon, and the Glorious White Horse are beginning to descend into the western horizon (sketch to right is Winter Constellations descending into western horizon. This can actually be seen as early as December, in the pre-dawn hours).

.

And at this point 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.

.

The sketch to left shows, the two doors are each composed of two bright stars. The two bright stars that comprise the Narrow Gate are the two brightest stars of the Orion the Reaper’s sickle. The two stars that comprise the ‘Wide Gate’ Stars are the two brightest stars of the wave of water that comes out of the Dragon Constellation’s mouth (for explanation of “Wave of Water”, just click here). The stars that make up the ‘Narrow Gate’ are about half the width of the Wide Gate (see sketch to right).

.

(For more information on Orion’s sickle, just click here,“Orion The R eaper”.)

Editor’s note: These sketches on this page are merely sketches. The stars are not in their exact place. However, they are close enough to find them in the night sky. But as with most stars, it takes persistence to finally locate them.
